My two children love the Magnetix building sets and I thought this set, with the circular pieces would make a nice addition to their collection. I was disappointed on two counts. The first is blatant misrepresentation of the product-the picture on the box shows rounds with 8 magnets each; the actual pieces have only 4 magnets each. The second is the quantity provided. Out of 20 pieces, only four were rounds! This is very poor value for the price. Since the set only has 20 pieces it is safe to assume that it will be an add-on to other sets, so I would have expected at least 8 rounds in the set, with the straight pieces and balls making up the balance, because most likely the purchaser has other pieces already. To be honest, I feel a bit ripped off by how little I got for my money with this set. I think Rose Art should put an actual breakdown of the quantity of each of the different types of pieces on the outside of the box (and Amazon on the website) instead of simply the total pieces. That way, an informed decision can be made whether the set is worth the money or not.

My grandson (age 7) and I have had a lot of fun building with these magnetics. We sit on the floor for hours coming up with new building ideas. I highly recommend this item.
