Review on PE 12mm x 3mm Countersunk Permanent Magnet Fastener by Sam Simone

Tried to order these magnets twice. The first time it appeared to have been destroyed upon delivery and I was automatically refunded a few days after ordering. When he came to me the second time, I was amazed to find that these magnets have such weak magnetism that they hardly attract each other. Unlike others, I knew exactly how small they would be because I can read the description, but the description doesn't tell you that these magnets aren't constant polarity. This means the polarity will change from magnet to magnet, but NOT in a consistent way. You don't get 20 north magnets on the face down side and 20 north magnets on the flat back. It seems this was random, meaning not all of them will be useful if you use them in a situation where they should be magnetically attracted to themselves. But what's worse, the magnets just don't have enough strength to even attract each other with correct polarity. Most strong magnets must be pulled apart very carefully, otherwise they will get stuck and possibly injure or break you. Magnet. They weren't even attracted to each other until they touched. If you need magnets to hold papers on the fridge this might work, but then why start with hidden magnets? Anything else and it will not be of any use. I will also say that mixing and matching products on the same page and review set is incredibly misleading. This product page receives an average of 4.5/5 stars from 877 reviews, but most of these positive reviews are for other products that are completely different. This particular product is littered with horrible reviews which unfortunately I didn't even think of when trying to purchase this item because magnets are magnets right? no There is not a single instance where these magnets would be useful to anyone. Either they don't work, or there are significantly better alternatives in terms of price/performance ratio.
