They're pretty useless. First time I used them they got wedged onto the cup.

Never seen the point in these. They might look nice but functionally the four fingers are far better

The four fingers are better for holding cups because that's what they were designed for. The chrome-ringed cups are made to hold coins, keys, whatever (and they're better than the cup holders for that. Clearly, they need to come with instructions. |

Glad to know I'm not alone. All the change I leave on the bedside table is apparently fair game!

No, but did you want them to actually put cups in there? Or to put little items. I don't know about everyone else, but I always wind up using both cup holders. One for me, one for the wife/friends. Coins and little items can go somewhere else. Sorry.

I usually drive alone and would use one to hold my coffee and the other one for little things. But I find it hard to take coffee out from those 4 plastic spring finger thingy. Plus, when u spill coffee, it's hard to clean up.
