I just hung this thing up in the closet where I hang my tools. So far it's holding 9 screwdrivers, 3 chisels, a 16 oz and a 22 oz hammer, and finally a 2 lb. sledge. (I tried hanging the monkey wrench, but I think that was too much for the magnet with everything else on it. Believe me, there isn't room for it anyway.) This magnet is STRONG! I was worried that the tools might fall off easily, but I don't see that being a problem now.

Basically, I'm really impressed with how great this thing works, and I plan on buying a few more for my shop and around the house.

Just be sure to screw it into the studs or something that will hold all of the weight that you'll put on it. It comes with large sheet-rock anchors, and some heavy duty screws, but I would bet that the sheet-rock will give way before this magnet does! If you plan on using it to hold kitchen knives or something light like that, the screws and anchors should work fine though.

(Also, the rack doesn't come with wood screws, so you'll probably need to use you own if you decide to hang it the way I suggested. But it only needs two screws, so no big deal.)

I have ordered this product before. I use one in my kitchen for my knives and keep them near the stove and counter top. There's one in the barn for my tools there and the new ones are in the garage for additional tools I use in the house frequently. The magnet is strong and will even hold a hammer or pipe wrench yet it is easy to remove the tool.

Great device! Recommend it highly! Will eventually have the need for another.

These work fine but the item I received is a little different than what's in the picture. The screw holes are not in the ends as shown in the picture but on vertical tabs welded to the back that stick up. The "Yellow" stripe is actually a piece of tape that is not really attached to the magnets. It just sort of hangs there begging to be pulled off. Maybe the yellow tape is just there to protect the magnets during shipping? But then why show it in the picture? This item is a good value but the design is not top quality.

I love this product! Received it yesterday, installed it yesterday. It has powerful magnetic hold and has exceed my expectations.

This was much heavier than I expected - my boyfriend uses it in the garagr since it won't work for what I wanted it for

I could not find this item locally, which would seem a no brainer at Lowes or Home Depot, but ordered them here and I wish that I had ordered two more. Good solid product.

I tried out a couple different ones from Amazon, the ones with the red label. Those are ok, but the mounting holes aren't centered well and it's tough to align them to hang on pegboard. The blue ones are very good, but again the mouting holes are off center. These (yellow) are by far the best. You hang it with two tabs on the back that are perfectly spaced, and the magnet is STRONG!! Plus it's a little rectangular, so it gives a little more room between tool and wall to get a good grip.

Very handy tool holder. Bit stronger magnet for the weight the weight of a pipe wrench and such would make it perfect.

It's a long magnet and it works well. Very satisfied with this product, but after wanting to put a bunch of tools on it I realized I have too many tools for just one bar. I will likely buy more of these in the near future. I think it came with drywall anchors, but I put it directly into wood because of the weight plus that of the tools attached to it.

Downside: like someone else wrote: the yellow strip is just paper ... these are strong magnets with well built supports. Heavy but not too heavy. The holes match pegboard, the larger version, i.e. the holes are the same distance apart. The magnets themselves seem to be spaced apart but it doesn't affect the consistency of the holding power through the total length of the bar. I bought 3 or 4 different individual magnets bars and sets including rare earth magnets with pre-drilled holes and this is the best so far.
