Excellent For the Price
The mount is much smaller than I had originally thought but that does not really pose a problem as the straps are excessively long allowing for large items. It is very straight forward and easy to install. The plastic buckle on the provided straps are less than impressive as they do not tighten as much as I would like. That having said that I'm not in fear of it falling because each is secure and snug against the console.
If your item is larger than the mount than it will be able to move length-wise as the straps are not connected to the mount but rather you push them through the provided slots. On my next install, I'm going to try using a wedge or clamp that will keep the straps secured to the mount to mitigate this.
The install hardware consist of 6 bear-claw style drywall screws. These are have very poor quality control as 2 of the screws had 1/4in metal shavings attached to them one of which sliced open my finger during install. I was using a simple screwdriver and was being moderately careful as to not damage the plastic. I recommend using anchors that you are more familiar with. Also I will be using washers next time as the holes in the plastic have a small lip in them that the screw is supposed to snug up to and I don't feel as comfortable with it after actually mounting the console. I did a fair amount of tugging on the straps to try and tighten them and was worried I may pull the mount loose.
Over all, I very much like this item. It is very versatile and you cannot beat the price. i will defiantly be buying this again and using my own hardware to mount so that I feel more secure putting expensive items 6 ft off the ground.
