5.0 out of 5 stars These 1-inch magnets are the best size, November 21, 2008

FIRST, let's get one thing straight: In more than a decade of hard use, I've never had a Magcraft magnet break or chip. I use them around power tools, the garage, the workbench, the basement, and for the kitchen. So when someone tells you that line, it's a lie. SECOND, among all the various Magcraft magnet size, this 1x1/8 inch is perhaps the most useful because of its large area. Next up would be the 3/4x1/8 size. But so far out of the dozen or so sizes I've used over the years for various projects, this is the most handy. FINALLY, because they are so strong, if you ever get two of them together, they're painful to pry apart. When that happens, attach them to something else, and then pull them apart one-by-one, and you'll still have the hide on your fingers.

Me and my dad both love magnets. I ordered these for him for Christmas and when I received them in the mail, I had to check them out. They are super strong and the look/feel of them is great. Like the other reviewers stated, try not to let them stick together, because you will suddenly be confronted with the task of getting them apart. You couldn't ask for any stronger of a magnet thats this size, but you do have to be careful. Like it says on the packaging, they are very brittle. I got two of them too close together, and they flew at each other and when they connected they shattered into very many tiny pieces, but thankfully the strength of the magnets kept the pieces in one big clump, instead of scattering them everywhere. I guess your not supposed to play with them like I was, but how can you resist? These a great magnets with excellent strength, but you just gotta be careful with them.

The Magcraft 1" Disc Magnets are very strong and well made. These are very high quality magnets that are perfect for science projects.

These large disk magnets can hold a lot of weight and some care should be taken when you have a bunch of them together as they are very powerful. We have taken the advice of other reviewers and have not made the mistake of letting these smash together, so have not seen the chipping problem some others have reported.

Be sure to save the packaging as it is well made and likely the best way to store these when not in use.

Highly recommended!
