What's great about it: Easy to go on and off when it's not cold.
What's not so great: It won't work when it's cold.
I bought this to replace the standard windshield mount that came on my X50.
It works very well EXCEPT in cold weather.
The suction cup absolutely refuses to stick to the windshield when it is cold. But in any instance where I do get it to stick when it's cold, it usually falls off my windshield. This has happened quite a few times and I'm paranoid that the next time it falls, it will ruin my $300+ investment.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Easy and durable
What's not so great: NA
By far the best add-on for any Escort radar detector. Every other suction cup mount seems to wear out, but not this one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: stable and secure hold to the windshield
What's not so great: broken after 6 months
I used the included suction mount with my 8500 X50 for a short time, and could see that it would not hold up well over time. I got this mount on a deal, and loved it. It had a strong and stable hold for the better part of the last 5 or 6 months. I did notice once or twice that the suction would get loose, but it was easy to reset. Now, after 6 months, it will not keep a tight hold because the suction cup has started to break off from the post. However, the suction cup is still keeping the detector secured to the windshield, even though it is sagging quite a bit. I will be replacing it, but I expected it to hold up for longer than it has.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: sturdy, easy to attach
What's not so great: it lets loose, causing a $400 detector to fall
This mount works great as long as the weather is warm, however...if you live in a cold climate unhook the detector from the mount when not in use or it will be on the floor. I have complained to Escort about this problem and they acknowledged they were faulty and sent me a replacement, but it still falls off. Maybe glue the mount to the windshield with rear view mirror adhesive (just kidding) Google this mount and read all of the complaints! Once the interior of the car is warm it is fine, and yes my windshield is clean.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Stays put
What's not so great: Should be included
This should come with the RD in the first place. If you're tired if trying to reattach the original mount to the glass only to have it fall right back down, you want this.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Rock Solid
What's not so great: Need more than one for multiple cars
I use Escort's supercup with my 9500IX. This thing rocks. It does not move when properly placed on the windshield correctly. I love it. It is leaps and bounds better than provided suction cups. Its easy to put on and take off. Once you put it on, it will stay on. It allows the radar detector to have minimal bounce but mostly the detector is still and stable. You do not have to worry about your detector falling from the windshield at random while you are driving. I did have my supercup fall of the windshiled after my car sat in the hot sun for months without me driving it. I think it was the sun that caused it to fall. I haven't had that problem since I have been driving my car on a regular basis. I just cleaned the supercup and my windshield with rubbing alcohol and I was back in buisness. I would recommend this item to anybody at the time of purchase of any Escort radar system.

What's great about it: Ease of use
What's not so great: Be careful in hot weather
Much easier to use then the suction cups that come with the radar. I left mine stuck to the windhield all the time during hot weather and the internal plastic softened, then cracked and broke.
Pros: easy to use
Cons: deteriorates in hot weather
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy To Set Up
What's not so great: Nothing.
Honestly ESCORT really should have just put this suction cup in the original box when you purchase it in the first place (Especially when the detector is MSRP $499!). I use this for my ESCORT 9500ix. The suction cups that comes with the radar detector are a pain to use and they never seem to stick to the windshield. This suction cup solves this problem and gives my radar detector a firm hold in all driving conditions. This thing will not budge on my windshield. Its also great for travel and you can take it from vehicle to vehicle. I recommend having this if you are a current owner!
I would recommend this to a friend!
