Does the air vent mounting system is stable. Is it unsteady and swings while removing or placing the phone. Thanks.

Without getting a custom fit for each exact vehicle it is impossible to say how stable it will be in your application. In the 2 different cars I've used it in the vent-mount configuration it has worked well. It's certainly not "rock solid" sitting inside flexible, plastic fins, but enough so to do the job.

In my Dodge Dakota, it's not great.. In my wife's Nissan Versa, It is awesome.

There is nothing to prevent it from moving around while you place or remove the phone. It's attached at the top to the vent, but the bottom rests on a couple of ears which sit on the vent or dashboard. it never moves while driving (in my car), but it easily moves when I put the phone in or remove it.

No it holds it firm and the foam that it rest on keeps it from vibrating. I use mine in a large utility truck. It I s constantly driving over curbs and rough ground and mine phone stays put . I love it. Once you mold the metal rod to where you want it it stays there. It's like a #4 aluminum wire under tubing. Super strong. And the adjustable side brackets hold it well

I have crashed a bicycle AND a motorcycle with this mount and the phone did not fall out. On the other hand, if you do secure the phone all the way into the jaws, it will fall out (duh).

You might have some luck with that. The clamp that holds the phone is good but the one that attaches to whatever lacks the strength to secure the system. Even attached to a bedpost it can still come off if rotated too much. You can probably rig it...

The sides that holds the phone is not wiggly at all. It's the actual device that's being attached to the car that's wiggly, but I like it it's very sturdy, it was hard to figure out how to install the base part. Hope this helps

I've had mine for about a month and I love it. It shakes or vibrates no more than my car does (Mitsubishi Eclipse) but it never budges from its connection to the mount. It's a strong magnet but not so strong that you have to fight to get it off the mount. It's a great product.

I don't have my phone positioned sideways often but it's pretty solid. I couldn't pull out out if I just tried it pull sideways on the phone.

The mount has a rubber cushion block that reduces vibration. My mount is in an airplane and is very stable holding an iPad Air in rough flying conditions similar to running over potholes in a car. The suction mount has a sticky surface and would hold tight if you mount on a smooth flat surface.

My vehicle vents have up and down movement as well as side directional positions but once the unit is installedthe up and down movement is eliminated to make the Grip iT stable. Have been very pleased with the Grip And the Bracketron Company is very helpful, if you have a question about installation or any needed parts.

Yes! The base is stable. I love mine. I tend to move around when on the phone and have never had a problem. Great décor piece also.

yes it swivals, but it breaks easliy after readjusting just a few times, after placing the phone on and off, it doesn't take much to weaken it to where it breaks with in a short time

We've had ours for two years, and it is still like new. We moved last year, and it made it with no problems. I think the movers shrink wrapped it to keep the doors closed so we didn't have any issues. The only piece that is somewhat flimsy is the cordless phone. It's two pieces that snap together, and they come apart when the phone is dropped on the floor. They snap right back together though. It's heavy when fully assembled. We put felt strips on the bottom so we can slide it on the floors when moving it around at home.

Whenever I put my phone into the mount I use both hands to hold the mount and remove the phone with the other hand. If you don't think that's tiresome maybe it's ok. I'm not sure if 50+ times of usages will loosen the spring inside on the mount though since I use it only a couple of times a day and I've been using it less than a month. Hope it helps.

Vertical it's not sturdy, however, Horizontal it works absolutely great. I absolutely love this case.

Mine doesn't shake at all. It's extremely sturdy, I can take the phone out of the holder without fear of it coming Off the windshield. If yours shakes to much you might have problems with your car.

I is easier to keep the phone on the mount, answer the call, then snap the mount back onto the vent. It takes two hands to place and remove the actual phone onto the mount. But it's so light weight, it's easy to talk on the phone while the mount is attached.

No it is not. First of all the universal mount is easily taken out. But you can open the sliding bottom door next to the mount to allow more air flow and, of course, open the upper vent. Frankly I would just remove the mount because, at this point, it isn't needed anyway.
