Summit RV-34 Small Flat Glass Mirror with Suction Pad

I already had passenger rear-view mirror when accompanying a learner driver (Summit RV-30 Large Flat Glass Mirror with Suction Pad), but I also wanted one to see their face to see where they were looking (to check if they are checking their mirrors!).I didn’t need a particularly large mirror, nor a wide-angled mirror, and this fitted the bill perfectly, in fact I wanted something that would stick, give me a clear stable reflection and be compact.The mirror came with an alcohol wipe to clean the glass, and a good quality silicone suction cup, with disposable protective cover.I found the ball joint stiff enough to hold position, but with sufficient freedom for adjustment.The mirror itself is crystal clear and flat.The suction cup mechanism is strong and works well.This could be used to check your children in the back, but something like ONEVER Baby Car Mirror Wide View Angle Adjustable Backseat Monitor for Child Front View Mirror Safety Wide Viewwould be better.If you find this review useful, please consider clicking on ‘YES’ below, thanks!

Just used this to pass my DVLA practical driving test in my own car, had no problems mounting it, it was easily adjustable by my examiner (I let him place it to begin with), and it REALLY stuck on, actually had quite a hard time removing it after despite it being a hot day. Once I got a fingernail under the suction edge it came off easily. It's about half the size of my actual rearview mirror but was ample for the examiner. Couldn't be happier with it.

used when teaching my wife to drive, useful item, nice quality, does the job very well

With any significant windscreen slope towards the front of the car, you cannot angle this back far enough to see behind you. The actual adhesion with suction is excellent, although have a care with turning the lever to set maximum suction. The lever turns and clicks in to place at full suction though this requires quite a bit of force to get it there - with a complete seal this mirror is not coming off the windscreen barring small children swinging off it. If anyone is finding it drops off on its own, check that the lever is fully turned to the firm click and the windscreen is clean (and there are not nicks on the suction cup).

Good quality

This mirror worked well and the examiner was able to place it as he needed, as I took the driving test in my own car. My mother also used it when I was still a learner and she liked that she had a good rear view of the traffic. As I've passed, this mirror now sits in a little box containing my L-plates and theory test revision guide that will be given to my brother when he turns 17.

We have one in my car and one in my wife's. It is easy to position it so you can see your child. The only negative is that sometimes, once every few months, the mirror will fall off. but I have not deducted a star as all suction-cup based attachments will suffer from this.

We cleaned the windscreen thoroughly as instructed, and fixed on the mirror. It worked for about an hour before falling off. We then tried a few times to stick it on again, but it kept falling off. There was a slight fault on the rubber suction pad. We then bought another sized mirror from a shop(unfortunately they only had the Summit brand) and this had the same fault so again kept falling off. I suggest buying a different brand.
