5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Streaming Games—Works Best on Chain-Link Fences!

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } We got this phone holder to live-stream baseball games for family and friends who couldn’t attend in person. It works great on chain-link fences, holding the phone securely in place. However, it doesn’t perform as well on netting-style fences since they tend to be too flimsy for proper support. Anytime we have a game with a chain-link fence, this will definitely be my go-to!It’s also super compact, making it easy to carry around. Beyond sports, I can see this being really useful for my husband on long flights—he loves watching videos but doesn’t have a kickstand for his phone. Overall, a great purchase if you plan to use it on the right type of surface!

5.0 out of 5 stars Functions well

Functions amazingly. It can hold your phone and its easy to use as well. My wife loved it

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for those areas where you need a stand

K. · August 17, 2020

I been having this for a little while using this in my bathroom on the bar in the tub, and its a very nice piece where I can tap and play music.The arms are great for positioning in any where, where you need to stand up your phone or hang it even. Though there is really one problem where I feel that might overall be a problem if you wanna continually use this bending the arms all ways would make the joints break. (It just feels like they will pop off given too much stretch.)Though with this I feel if you have a area where any other stand wont do or you just wanna have a cool spider looking stand and you don't move it around much, this is a good buy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Effective, but not as stable as I'd hoped

T. · August 8, 2016

This product is effective and works quite well. I previously drove with my phone in my lap when I needed to run Google Maps, which was obviously quite dangerous, and I didn't want to use the magnetic phone holders in case of phone damage. I love that this is a very low-key set-up that is very mobile and allows me to adjust it at my leisure while presenting absolutely no damage risk to my device.My main issue with this product is that the legs are actually just thick enough that they're difficult to get into my car vents and can't be curved at all whilst inside, which means that the legs tuck in at a straight angle such that they sometimes slide out. The whole thing has slid out of my vents twice already in the month that I've used them. On top of that, the price dropped to half of what I paid very shortly after my purchase, which just made it doubly exasperating that it wasn't quite as stable as I'd hoped for.On the plus side, it's definitely a fun little toy to play around with, and if I decide that it's just too problematic to use in the car with my Droid, I'm sure I can find many other uses for it. Once bent, the legs are very, very sturdy, and there is absolutely no risk of anything held inside of them falling out. The legs are very well made, just too thick for my car.

5.0 out of 5 stars It looks like orders from China are talking longer this year

L.T. · March 27, 2016

I ordered these on February 11th and they arrived yesterday March 25th. It looks like orders from China are talking longer this year, maybe because the economy has dropped and a lot of freighters are dry docked now. Anyway back to the review. I bent two of these around our cell phones and used two of the prongs to anchor each to the lower louver on the vents so the phone is below and not getting blasted by the heat. It's bent loose enough so the phone is easy to pull out and go back in without bending each time.I had a museum type shop and one of the items we sold were bendable toys so we had something for the kids. They may have been heavier duty, but they lasted a long time, eventually they would fail too. These are really good for the application, you can bend them so they don't interfere with the buttons, side or front. For the price you can't beat them if you can wait. Order four and you'll probably find more uses for them besides the cell phone. This item is one of those, why didn't I think of it products, but glad someone did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for desk work and car vents

J.R. · March 7, 2023

I bought a few of these and bent one to fit in my center van of the car. Being able to bend the ends to curl around the phone holds it securely in place. I also have one on my desk at home in my desk at work that is bent a little different and just holds the phone there so I can glance over at it while working at the computer and it keeps it high enough so the charging cable can fit underneath. I will probably be buying more of these.

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't even rate a meh

May look interesting, but I can't recommend it. Very hard to configure. Wobbles.

It is almost a universal fact that the car phone holders don't last very long. Having bought dozens of holders of different designs all fail within 6 months, either the suction becomes loose or the glue won't last. Well, that was until I found this creative device. for $5 why not give it a try given that it has so great reviews. I have placed it in my car vent and it holds the phone in both vertical and horizontal positions. It holds phones of any size perfectly and any desirable angle.Apart from being a phone holder, I am also using these multi-useful holders for the following uses:-1). On my bike as a water bottle holder.2). As a tablet holder while binge-watching Netflix3). As an extension cord/bulb holder for my garage while doing workIn case you are wondering, it CANNOT hold Ipad sized tablets.
