Magnetix is a great toy for kids who are at the age when you are sure they (or younger siblings) are not going to put them in their mouth. I got this for my daughter as a birthday present because she had previously aquired a set of about 15 pcs. from a rummage sale- and didn't put them down all summer. She now spends hours building homes for her little toys, rocket ships, etc. I am considering buying more add-on sets with specialty parts. The onlly bad thing about these is that if you build something too tall or large, the weight pulls it down and the magnets cause it to collapse in on itself. That's a little disappointing, but still worth it- She loves them.

This is such a cool set. Definately not worth the (high)Amazon price tag though. We bought it locally for a much cheaper price.

Bought this for my 8 year old grandson's birthday gift. He loves it! He spends hours creating and constructing.

Our kids received a set of 100 a year ago and my husband has as much, if not more, fun creating many static and moving designs. I bought this 250 piece set for him this year and he just LOVES it! Also bought a kit with helix corner pieces which makes for really different designs. Highly recommended!

Nice big set with lots of pieces. Most sets have only a fraction of the pieces so I think this is a great value. We ordered this set & received it very quickly & the boys haven't left it alone since it arrived. Probably one of the best Magnetix sets out there. Definitely one of the best building sets for older kids.

My kids love the magnetix - boys ages 7 and 9 play with them all the time.

If I had known what 250 pieces actually looks like and what can be built, I'm not sure I would have bought this product at that price! It comes in this huge box and along with the packaging it does lend itself to pretty high expectations. On Christmas day when I saw how much it actually was, I wasn't too happy. True, it's actually 250 pieces but please be warned: you may be disappointed if you think that's a whole lot.

Countless hours of fun! These are great and it is crazy what you can make.

My children can play with this toy for hours. Their imaginations keep finding new things to try as there is polarity and science involved.

CAUTION: There has been a recall due to the small magnetic parts that could come out. Those products on the market since 2006 have been improved and are not part of that recall. For more information see [...].

This toy is extremely dangerous! Magnets can fall out of the plastic piece and become a huge danger if ingested. Sometimes you don't even realize the magnets fell out, they can stick onto furniture. But little kids crawling around can find them. If more than one magnet is ingested they can try to attach inside the bowel and cause holes in the stomach mimicking gun shot wounds.
