As someone who loves experimenting with Industrial and Scientific equipment, I found this product to be an excellent addition to my toolkit .My analysis of this magnet showed that it has a strong magnetic pull and can be easily manipulated into various shapes. IT`S also very durable and doesn't lose its strength over time. The only downside is that the enamel can chip if not handled carefully but that's a minor issue that can be easily avoided. Overall, great value for the price and a must-have for any Science Education enthusiast!
