" ... I loved it for the first week, but then the top piece popped off and one of the holes that held it in ripped. ... It's now very flimsy and hard to pop open, and doesn't work to prop the phone on the side anymore. ... "
" ... Only in few months, the glue wears off ... "
" ... I would try and re-apply it and it still will not hold a tight bond to my phone. ... "
" ... This item keep folding and won’t stay stand. ... "
" ... Popped open, but interior plastic was so soft it was unusable: wouldn’t balance between fingers correctly, and iPhone would not sit in side-tilt for binge-watching Netflix. ... "
" ... Don't stay folded long enough to drop or set down ... "
" ... Doesn’t stay in place, the kickstand feature is useless. ... "
" ... It didn't even hold up my phone when I'd try to use it as a stand, and when I tried to move the sticker, it left the entire backside of the sticker on my phone, while the actual "pop socket" popped right off. ... "

" ... Broke within a week: the socket part separated from the base, not particularly comfortable to hold either and it makes using any kind of non-socket based car phone holders impossible as the socket itself is quite bulbous even in its fully collapsed state. ... "
" ... It’s just cheap plastic. ... "
" ... It broke when I accidentally bumped it on a corner ... "
" ... Had it for about two months and it fell off the back of my phone while holding. ... "
" ... Would not pop up and when I tried to pull it up the base broke. ... "
" ... Only had it in for a month and it fell off already. ... "

" ... I purchased this because my hands would cramp from holding my phone too long. ... "
" ... Keeps coming off. ... "
" ... I have to be super careful holding this because it feels like the adhesive will pop off any moment unless I'm super gentle with it and repeatedly push it down. ... "
" ... I find myself switching my grip from using it to not using it because it's too snug between my fingers since it doesn't come out enough to allow a comfortable hold. ... And my hands are average, normal sized, not fat fingers. ... "
" ... It slid off again twice today! ... "
" ... Got it in the mail today & within 2 hours, the adhesive wore off & is no longer usable! ... "
" ... This didn't even last for 8 hours before it fell off. ... I was driving not even eight hours after I attached the popsocket when it fell off. ... I put it back on and just used it to hold in my hands. ... It stayed on for one week like that, until last night it fell off the second time. ... "
" ... Haven’t had it on 24 hours and it has fallen off 3 times. ... "
