I'd like to use this in my Jeep off-road. How solid is the iPad held in place? Would need to withstand some jostling.

I'm driving on a smooth surface and was fine with it. Not sure about off road.

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.

It is very solid. Unfortunately, I never go off-road so I have no idea whether it can withstand jostling.

Four "fingers" grip the edges of the ipad in place and a built in spring mechanism provides enough tension to hold it securely. The other pieces visible in the not-so-great photo are for releasing the "fingers" by operating the spring mechanism. it sounds more complicated than it is. I use it in a P28A Archer III with my full-size ipad in the Apple-issue case.

I would not use this in a vehicle on bumpy roads. The grip is strong but the arm will bounce & move around.

It's pretty solid. I believe it could handle any bump and the phone will not fall out. I have gone over some preety good speed bumps and hit some pot holes and the phone didn't move a bit.

To date, this product has remained in place on my dashboard without any issue whatsoever. I use it often to hold my iPhone for navigation purposes. There are limited flat surfaces on my dashboard as well, sliding has not been a concern with this product.

I am not sure, but I have to tell you that the last time that I put my Droid Razr Max on it , it stuck to it and dislodged the back piece that allows the phone to stand up ( luckily, I was able to fix it) It does get sticky in the summer. Just curious, but why would you put your IPAD, which is large, on the dashboard standing up. I think that this could be dangerous. You certainly can't use it while driving.

I tend to use my Ipad on my lap, I haven`t had any problems with it moving. If you have it closed up and have the metal side facedown, then its metal, it moves. I find it perfectly fine and I can`t see you having a probem even if you are on a train or flying.

We love it. We use it to hole our iPad and have absolutely no problems with it tipping over. I suppose if you hit it with a baseball bat it might tip over!!

Yes, it is stable when the iPad Air sits atop the JBL Rumble. Like yourself, I had worried that the base would only be suitable for an iPhone or iPod Touch. The iPad Air, however, sits atop it remarkably well and is very steady. This is a great speaker and far superior in sound than many of its contemporaries.

I'm sure it will hold any tablet, iPad, ect...... But the issue is once you get going on the road it just bounces right out. It's not stable enough. The four fingers you see need to have some sort of rim/lip to keep it in place. It just wast strong enough to hold my iPad with the griffin military grade case on it. The link below is a better one and would buy it again once my little one is old enough to understand to keep her feet off. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0085S0838/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

My daughter has this on her phone and she dropped it and I ran it over with my Jeep Cherokee Limited and both the phone and case are intact. Id say dropping it wont be a problem.

The stand is quite sturdy and solid. Very steady, no wobbles or problems with use at any angle in my experience using it. I had been looking for iPad stands for some time before seeing this featured in one of those inflight magazines a few years back. I purchased this one and have been extremely pleased with the quality and functionality. Hope this helps.

Yes it most likely will hold it, I have just my iPad in the holder and really like the mount but I have to prop it on the dash to keep it up in an upright position, other than that I love it. Don

My son is in a wheel chair. He has a large tablet with rubberized protector and an external amplifier. Holds all this with no issues. Very stout.

I use a RAM mount holder for the mini ipad which allows the bad elf to be attached without any pinch points and holder is mounted to the vehicle by the RAM mount extension and suction cup - it has never come off in either very cold or very hot conditions and no problems with vibration or rough terrain - RJ

Will not handle much curve. However, I am using one of the non-slip jell pads that are sold for use on the dash with cell phones. it is thin, so I set the dashboard mount on it and do not have any problem with it slipping or moving.
