4.0 out of 5 stars Used for "Save the Date", August 7, 2010

My fiance and I purchased these magnet sheets to use for our wedding "Save the Date." Though the product isn't perfect (more on this in a moment) it sure beats the alternative which would have been paying at least 4 times the price to have the magnet made professionally. Additionally, an obvious benefit to creating projects on your own is the large amount of creativity your allowed. My fiance and I included a professionally taken photo on our "Save the Date" and were able to fit 6 of them to a page. Such a magnet done professionally would have cost at least $2 per 3"x4" magnet, whereas doing it ourselves costs approximately .40 cents per magnet.

About the product: it's very easy to use. I would advise feeding one sheet at a time to make sure your printer doesn't take more than one sheet at a time (they are magnetic after all). The print comes out beautifully and dries pretty quickly (we gave ours about 10 minutes just to be safe) and cuts pretty easily.

The downside: a small handful of recipients told us that the edges bent slightly and never stuck completely to their refrigerator. It was secure on the fridge, but not completely flat. Another downside (one I only found out about because we put the wrong address and the magnet was returned to us) was that the ink smudged a little bit on the magnet. We're hoping this was just an anomaly but we're still investigating. It wasn't awful, but it was noticeable.

Bottom line, the product isn't perfect but its the best out there if you want to do it yourself. For us, we spent about $45 to make 120 magnets. Had we got them done professionally, it would have easily cost us $240+

We use these to create our own personalized decorations for our cabin doors on cruises. They stick very well and the print quality is excellent. Tested them on refrigerator and they stick well there also. You need to use a very sharp, sturdy pair of scissors to cut them, however.

These magnets worked out fantastic for our wedding Save the Dates. We designed our magnets and printed them on our Canon printer. Great quality and good magnetic strength.
