thank you for this thread and that link. I just ordered one. I like that they fold flat and are adjustable.

Nice looking product, you guys are killing me by showing me all this cool stuff. I am a true modaholic. I ordered three and can't wait to get them even though I don't have my car, it is still in the shop. LOL

Does it fold up when not being used? I had one something like it, and my wife complained about it whenever she rode with me. Used to have to take it out, then put it back. Gave up on it.

I have seen some of the other expensive one but couldn’t justify the cost. This one is adjustable and it works great.

Does anyone else have one of these that has used it for a while? How is it holding up? The unit seems fairly sturdy and well built.

I bought one off of ebay a month ago, it has the clear acrylic and I won it for $10. I really like the product, and seems to be holding up. One complaint I do have is at night, sometimes its hard to find the ring when I set my drink down, and the drink flips the ring down, and I have to search and try to pull the ring up while I'm driving(not recommended). I wish the ring wasnt so easy to flip up or down, but for the money, it's a 9 out of 10! Sorry bad pic, it was getting dark!

I got my cup holder and it looks great. I haven't been able to put it in yet because my car is having some work done, but it's the first thing I'm gonna do when I get it back.

Great cupholder; I attached a decal to the outside so it looks a little classier when in the closed position. Got the decal on eBay. C5 XTC

Wow! What a convenient beverage holder. Some people like vendor "Girl in a Box", are really thinking. Very, very cool, Lori!

Got mine about 3 months ago. Fantastic product! Never have to worry about a spill, even with a Big-Gulp.

Only problem was..... the senders return address drew some HUGE anxious hours until I got home and had to open it to prove it does NOT use any batteries, nor does it inflate. *GEESH*

Worth it though! A plain brown wrapper would have sufficed, but I'm sure Lori has to get a kick out of it as well, each time she hears a story as this.
