First off, I wouldn't call these toys but Amazon asked me to rate them as such. I use them as magnets on my fridge and they're great. They're super strong and the perfect size. I'm a coffee fanatic and they are shaped and sized like real coffee beans. I also like that they don't take up much space so that the item you're hanging can still be easily seen/read (i.e. pictures, lists). A single bean holds up several sheets of paper without a problem.

Perfect fridge magnets--they're small and unobtrusive, strong enough to hold anything I've ever put them on, and are totally charming without being over-the-top gimmicky. I keep coming back to buy another package.

My husband loves coffee! and i saw these as i was looking for new maganets. they are small but they hold alot! it really does hold a pound or 10 sheets of paper, i tested it myself. they look like real coffee beans. im going to buy more. not a toy to us but they are cute and very useful.

If you're buying these as a gift, beware: The magnets are VERY strong. So strong, in fact, that all eight of them pulled themselves out of the packaging by the time I received them. I was planning on reassembling the magnets and giving it to my friend in a different manner anyway, but if you want to give the magnets as a gift in their original package, make sure you realize that might not be possible.

Otherwise, the magnets are great. They're very durable, very strong, and awesomely coffee-esque. They're small, but around the size you'd expect them to be-- they're shaped like coffee beans, and I believe they're about the same size as coffee beans as well. My best friend is a collector of magnets and also a coffee addict, and these were perfect for her.

I ordered the first set of these magnets after my wife complained about stuff falling off the fridge. I told her the free magnets from the dentist and vet weren't going to cut it. We needed some "rare earth" magnetic magic. She didn't believe me.

The first set came in and she took them upstairs. In a few minutes she came back down and said I needed to order more. Two of the magnets pulled out of the plastic coffee bean and stuck together. The magnets were stronger than the glue! Of course, we needed more because they worked too well! I think I've ordered five sets of these now.

You never think about buying magnets because you always get so many free ones. But like ball point pens, the free ones never really work that well. These guys do a great job!
