Some mention problems with the suction cups (it's hard to stick to the frosted side)...anyone found a solution to this?

It's hard to stick to the frosted side. Just stick it to the other side. The good thing about the glass is, if you have a puppy like we do, and she knocks it over, it shatters like car windshield glass.Tiny little beads.

I haven't had a problem with mine since I bought it. I dampened each cup with a little water, and they stuck. However, if you tug at the cups, of course, the suction will break. If you don't have unruly children the table will, probably, be o.k. Mine is, usually, covered with papers, and I pick it up and move it around. It is light weight. You can, probably, apply some type of permanent adhesive by going to someplace like Home Depot; Quite likely you won't need it. The frosted side of the glass is meant to be face up.

I cannot get mine to stick either. I have granite counter tops and I put a bit of water on the suction cups to help create a seal, but it didn't help at all. I also tried using it on my dining room table. The suction cups refuse to adhere, no matter how much pressure I apply. I had to have my husband hold the spiralizer down for me in order to be able to use it at all. Kind of frustrating to know I might not ever be able to use it without help and I'm considering sending it back just because of this issue. I sent an inquiry to Brieftons. We'll see what they say.

There should be a plastic frame with holes/indents in them and its very difficult but you have to put the suction in those holes hope this helped!though it probably didnt

Clean both the suction cups and the area where you are going to attach it, then put a few drops of a soapy solution on the cups before you lock them down. They will stick for days and days.

I have not found or needed a new suction cup part. The old one was still usable that came with the previous squeegee. I replaced the old same type cup with the included new one but kept the old one just in case.

It is not suction cups. There are drywall anchors that the hooks go into. The anchors may be giving it the look of plastic. It is a sturdy setup if installed correctly.

Hi Fred Ferguson,I have tried placing the suction cup in the box by dismantling the joints. I would personally prefer the 2 layers storage box which can house other accessories as well. Hope my feedback help ! :))

I did the same. I found some higher quality suction cups that i could stick on the side and would hold it up. Keep them in the bag for when i use it

All I can tell you is that the suction cups suck. U possibly can do a vertical bracket but depends on the vehicle.

Hi, They work on the window but not on the dashboard. My suggestion is to avoid using the suction cups for several reasons. 1 - When it gets bitter cold the spit or whatever you used to mount it freezes and the whole thing falls off the window. 2 - If you plan to remove it after use there is a mark on the window that advertises you have one in the car though with prices falling it's less likely it will be stolen these days. 3 - It is illegal in some states to use a window mount. 4 - The sandbag is more stable and vibrates a lot less.

Sharon... I had this happen once, and I washed the suction cup with soap and warm water, cleaned the area that I was sticking it to with shower cleaner (I use it on a shower wall)... after that it stuck firmly again. Hope this helps.

Yes, mine falls off as well. The suction cup has curled up around the edges and will not adhere well to our granite shower walls. It is very frustrating to hear a crash in the middle of the night. The squeegee does a great job, however, I need to find an alternative to this suction cup!

I've used mine for a few months now and I've never had a problem with the suction cups. It does not come with a visor clip but being solar it wouldn't work on the visor.

The suction cups have came loose a few times when I took the feeder off of the hooks for cleaning. I have never had a problem putting them back up, but I can see how it could be problematic down the road.

Clean the window and the suction cups. Wait until dry then place. Should stick very well after that. I haven't had any problems since.

Yes. Simply moisten the suction cups and press firmly. It should stick for some time but may, as any suction cup mount will do, become loose when the moisture under the cups dries out.
