Order some clothes online and the security tag was still on one item. This isn't the first time it's happened and wanted to get something to remove it. This worked perfect!

This is a great magnet. I bought it primarily to test to see if it would work for erasing old camcorder video cassettes and it works perferctly. Just keep it away from your hard drives and other electronics, because it is a powerful little magnet.

This is strong. Like it will break your fingers if you're not careful. DO NOT carry it in your pocket. DO NOT let any child under 16 touch it. This is a bad ass magnet!I have the "easy to remove" a one star as it is not easy to remove due to its strength! The best way to remove it from a surface is carefully drag it to the edge of the surface and in the same direction you've been sliding it, yank it off the end as if you're ripping off a bandaid. Make sure there's nothing metal behind you when…

Perfect for metal detecting and separating iron, be careful because the material is soft but will last a long time if you’re not rough with it

Bought because wife ordered clothing off line and they sent a shirt with a security tag on it and it worked great for removing it very powerful magnet.

I used this to remove a security tag from clothing with no problems. It is strong enough to easily attract metal that is 2 inches away from it.

I got the 40 x 20 mm cylinder magnet, and it is strong as can be. Where the steel is thicker on my refrigerator, I cannot pull it off without sliding it to the edge, even though I can fully compress the highest tension grip exercisers. It also looks pretty nice, so when not in use it can be a decorative accent somewhere. Just keep it away from magnetic hard drives and mechanical watches and clocks.I docked it one star only because the current $15 price for one piece seems a bit high to me.

This magnet so strong it's actually gotten away from me a few times when trying to gently place it on metal. Luckily it didn't chip or break as it flew from my hand, but I would expect it to if I'm not more careful as it's just a magnet with no protection on it as far as I know. Overall, have a tight grip on this one because it's a strong one!

I got this a more on a whim than anything else and it came in a thick styrofoam package. Soon as I took it out I knew why because it yanked silverware over to it and were hard to pry off. It needs to stay stored in the styrofoam to keep things from sticking to it but it'll definitely do whatever job it needs to.

Purchased for my kids to play with magnetic slime. They dropped it one time and multiple pieces fractured off of the cube and several cracks were left in the magnet. Apparently this is a characteristics of a "neo" magnet as they are very brittle so beware that they will handle very little abuse.

I don’t know if I got a dud, but I bought this to remove a security tag and it didn’t work at all. Careful. Pay attention to the warnings. These magnets are for experienced users. No joke.! Weak magnet.
