Magformers MAG-63070-C Magformers Magnetic 62 Piece Set

Great activity for our grandsons ( for anyone's granddaughters)

My 6 year old daughter can play with these for hours!! she loves the magnets!!

Magformers is a great building kit for kids of all ages. I'm a senior and I enjoy playing with it with my grandson.

As advertised and expected.

nbsp;Product: Magformers Standard Set (62 Pieces) Intent of Purpose: Education Tool (geometry, spatial concepts, sorting, etc.) Duration of Use: 4 Months Amount of Daily Use (low/moderate/high): Moderate Age (range) of Primary User(s): Baby (10 month – 14 month), Adult As a fore note, I do NOT recommend leaving young children unattended with small pieces or magnetic toys. Seriously, don’t even look away or get up to go to the bathroom. Be responsible, please. Durability / Longevity Rating: 5/5 My set has withstood moderate mistreatment from a toddler over the course of 4 months and still looks new. No pieces have broken. They have been frequently stepped on, chucked across the room, and dropped onto a tile floor. Appearance /Presentation Rating: 5/5 Colorful and attractive. Not an eyesore. Construction / Usefulness / Practicality Rating: 5/5 They are lightweight; I’d say no potential for broken windows, busted sheetrock, broken tile; not likely to result in severe injury and or concussion if they happen to become projectiles. The magnets rattle around when you shake an individual piece (not a negative quality). Useful as an educational tool. Examples: construction; spatial concepts; geometry; multiple mathematical concepts; matching; stacking; etc. The magnets are strong. In the video I have attached, you can see how strongly they stick to a metal baking pan. Unfortunately, I can only upload one video; I had made a comparison video of the staying power of Magna-Tiles vs. Magformers; even though I couldn't upload it, I'll tell you that the Magformers won. Cost-Efficiency Rating (MSRP): 2/5 At the suggested retail price, this isn’t a cost efficient item, especially if you’re working on a budget. Keep reading though. This product is frequently marked down by as much as 40-50 off the MSRP. Having worked in Ecommerce and sales for many years, I can assure you that markdowns aren’t always indicative of low sales or low-quality products; it’s a sales gimmick to persuade buyers into thinking they’re saving money. The MSRP is usually an unrealistic, inflated number which exists to convince you that you’re catching a bargain. Ordinarily, even when a product is half off, the manufacturer is still profiting and you’re actually paying a more realistic/fair price. So, if you purchase this item at a deep discount of around 40-50 off, I’d rate the cost-efficiency at about 4/5. Likeliness of Repurchase: Highly Likely I don’t know if I could ever have too many of these. For the time being, I only own one 62-piece set, but I would be glad to own a swimming pool full of these. Overall Rating: 4.75/5 (if purchased at a discount) If you aren’t quite sure which magnetic building tool to purchase (there are many available on the market), I can tell you that I have three different top-of-the-line products (Magformers, Magna-Tiles, and Tegu). Of the three, Magformers are my favorite. Here’s why: they have strong magnets; the open construction allows chunky little fingers (or any fingers) to handle them with ease; I feel that they are less likely to crack if stepped on in lieu of the open construction; the size and shape variety is nice; they are lightweight and durable at the same time. THE END. Hope you enjoyed my review.

My grandchildren love this toy and so do I. I like the book with the patterns they can follow-good skill building! The magnets are strong enough too! Great fun!
