How solid are side holders? Do they get wiggly/loose over time?

they worked well for a time and then the spring mechanism failed, I think it was a while ago. check out RAM Mounting X grips

They holds good. There is a button on the right side that pops the sides out and then you put your phone in and press them closed till they click in. Once you adjust it, it will stay that size for the next use. My wife uses this with here iPhone that has a case on it and it stays in even in a car with stiff suspension.

Mine got loose after about a month. I noticed it and added some electtical tape. Now its good

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

The side holders are a clamp action. You squeeze them together to where they grip hard and a ratchet action holds them there. When you want to release, you push the release button. I have been using one for over a year, and it is still rock solid.

Excellent product. It grips well. The sides have some flexibility like spring function. It does NOt get lose over time becaue you release the sides by pushing a button and press them together to grip the phone. You can't go wrong with Panavise.

I did, worked out perfectly. I have one on each side, they held a lot more than I was expecting :-)

Fairly sturdy. I don't mess with them too often. My phone slides in snuggly. Make sure to use the head jack to secure in place.

It's not recommended but I use one on each side. There is a bracket that is placed on the side of the frame and you slide the holder into the bracket to lock it in place. Works great for me.

They are secured pretty well. There is a little movement to them but not enough that they shouldn't hold in place if upright.

I agree with JMN's response. They work pretty well, just a little loose but they do stay on the handles.

I have yet to have a problem and I'm hard on my equipment. I've had them for about 8months and they are still very secure in peddle no wiggle room. I do recommend these

I have some dished on mine that are pretty heavy. They are holding up just fine.

They don't seem to sag. The extensions are really straight and strong. You will need to adjust height a little bit, but since I store it in my work van sitting on the height supports, over time they loosen up and fall. Overall this is a great little stand. Our other van has the full size Dewalt stand for doing cabinet installs. I use the smaller version for service work, i.e. doing a few sticks of crown in kitchen, so moving it in and out of houses several times a day would be daunting with the larger stand. That is where this one shines... easy to use and very compact.

Yes and no. A simple yes is misleading, because if you do, as WFS mentioned, the brackets pivot, and when the holder is verutcal, the brackets move around. So while you can, it is somewhat unstable.

They slide OK - for it to be steady, best to have them supported with screws to whatever they rest on - otherwise the contents might make the basket tip over.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by stability but I have two side by side in a bottom (Floor level) cabinet with no problem. I slide the shelves in and out and they remain secure and serviceable

I haven't had any issues or vibrations with these mirrors. There pretty solid.

The holder doesn't wobble so much as the ironing board hanging from it does when the door is moved. An elastic tie-down wrapped around the ironing board would prevent that. I've never bother with it because it doesn't bother me.

no the side holders are the ones that move the most but the top one stays pretty much stationery which lends it to being mostly for the landscape or horizontal position sorry.

well, the spring clips on the side... did you bend them? like permanently out of shape? once they go into the slots, they stay spread open and hold up the plastic face. if you bent them though, i'd suggest bending them back? Can't see how the face doesn't stay up and closed unless you had bent them out of shape?

It does wiggle, but I got used to that. The aluminum is very light, and durable, but it does flex. When I put the lower two bars at a straight up position and only lean the top it wiggles the least. Anything with this many angles I think would move a little though. I wouldn't mistake light weight aluminum for bad quality, but if y want solid and still, you may have to pay a little more or get one that latches on to a desk or end table. Hope that helps.
