Edited: I've been using this for 3.5 months now and it's worked great. Any pistol I've used had stayed put regardless of pistol weight, terrain, length of drive, etc. The Velcro I added has stayed on nicely and continues to protect my gun's finish. There are many competitors on the market, which I haven't tried, but for the price and quality, this is the best there is.
Great solution for carrying in car, especially a small car will very little storage like my Camaro. The magnets are very strong. I added a piece of soft side Velcro onto the mounting surface to protect my gun's finish and so that it doesn't smack hard into the magnets when mounting. I installed it using two screws with a locking washer and a nut on the back side. I haven't driven with a gun mounted yet but I can tell that it'll hold well and the gun won't spin. I installed it at a 45 degree cant so that I can naturally gain a strong grip if I need to grab it quickly. To keep the gun mounted stable, it appears I'll have to attach it to the magnets right in the center of the gun for proper weight distribution.
ETA: I've been using this daily for two months now and it's performed perfectly. The gun doesn't move at all once I set it in place. I use it for either my Taurus PT111 or Kel Tec P3AT, and it holds either one of them right where I need without spinning or moving.

What is really nice about this one is how it addresses most of the issues. First thing they did is place 2 very strong cylinder magnets next to each other. This maximizes the holding force to a much smaller area. This means a much stronger connection to the gun and the smaller area greatly increases the flexibility to fit some place on the gun. Next they molded a 1 piece body. This removes the issue of having a cheap cover that comes off and breaks over time. Finally they made it so the magnets enter the body from behind. This means that even if the glue breaks down over time the magnets are captured between the body and the mounting surface. No risk of pulling the gun off and the magnets and cover come with it. Depending how you mount this could actually mean you still have to pull magnets and covers off your gun before it works. Not a good risk to take if you assume this could happen in a defensive situation. You also do not have the risk the glue gives way and the firearm falls off the mount. Finally they do provide a little stand off but still provide a low profile. This allows you the ability to make the most contact with the magnetic surface but still lay flat where revolver cylinders, safety levers, mag release buttons are not an issue. It also gives you just enough stand off that my sausage fingers can fit around the grip to pull it out in a ready state. I do not have to still adjust my grip after pulling it out.
The one thing I did change is the mounting surface that makes contact with the firearm. It comes in with a harder plastic surface. It probably would not cause wear to the finish, but I am one of those anal retetive people that cleans after every use and do not want extra wear marks / finish damage. I took a few clean patches / wash cloth material and lightly glued it on the mating surface. First this helps protect the finish when taking the gun on and off because I'm "that guy". The second thing it does is actually make retrieval easier and smoother. The sliding friction is reduced when pulling off but the magnet force to hold the firearm on the mount is still rock solid. Just don't get crazy and try to put an in inch worth of material on.
Overall I am extremely pleased with build quality, simplicity, ease of use, flexibility to attach, and strength of magnetic force. I have already purchased again and will again in the future!
