About this item

  • STRONGER THAN A BAR MAGNET: This 2-inch magnet can lift up to 3x more than a bar magnet - up to four pounds! Try it on any ferrous metal and see just how powerful it is.
  • AMAZING MAGNETIC EXPERIMENTS: Explore attraction (note: repulsion can demagnetize horseshoe magnets), compare the strength of different magnets, view invisible magnetic fields using iron filings, and more!
  • GREAT FOR AT-HOME & CLASSROOM SCIENCE: Perfect for at-home explorations, science centers, after school science clubs, and more!
  • INCLUDES PROTECTIVE KEEPER: Store magnet with keeper in place to protect its magnetism. Remove keeper before use.
  • - TOUGH BUT FRAGILE: Like all Alnico magnets, this magnet will break if dropped and become desensitized with magnetic repulsion. Store away from electronics, high heat, and direct sunlight. Store with keeper on.

It arrived on sharp time and it works pretty well taking into consideration how small it is.

Magnet is reasonably strong. It's not terribly durriable though as mine broke in half. It may have fallen on the ground from the fridge but I am unaware.

After reading all the reviews, we weren't exactly sure what to think in terms of strength and size of the actual magnet. My son simply wanted a strong horseshoe magnet to play with. It does just that! It's pretty small, but not tiny. Just good plain fun.

Love it. It’s like the one I use when little and put it to the tv and change the color on the tv.... thinking about hitting the 70 inch with it....

It's not sturdy, since it broke after being dropped less then 3 ft.
