Well lets eliminate the haters right off....yes this costs 75$ .....yes that is expensive....I don't give a damn if you think me foolish or extravagant, it's my money and I shall spend it as I see fit!
Now on to the review. I have used many of the available cue holders that have come onto the market over the years. Most ....if not all, were the table top rest type (aka the claw) and a few clamp on styles like the porper. All had the same flaw, they failed to protect the cue from accidental bumps knocking it to the floor. All served as decent rests between innings, but so does my knee. I wanted something that would offer a degree of protection as well.....The "E-GRIP" does exactly that. Made from what appears to be aircraft aluminium polished so there are no rough edges and lined with a rubber cushion both inside and out. Clamping is the vise style with a J hook that serves to hang the case from. Workmanship is first rate and it is simple to use. It is a step above the other holders IMHO and customer service is top notch. I am happy with my purchase and recommend this product wholeheartedly .
