Review of Magcraft NSN0911 1/2-Inch by 1/2-Inch by 1/8-Inch Rare Earth Block Magnets, 10-Count

All of these Magcraft magnets deserve a 5 star rating for their strength and variations in design. Apart from that, be forewarned! These magnets are so strong they may cause some mischief. They are definitely not safe for small children. For example, I put one on the refrigerator but it was too strong to pull off. I had to slide the magnet over to the edge of the door to peel it off. But the magnet snapped around the corner and pinched my finger creating a blood blister. Also, contrary to the episode of Myth Busters, these magnets are in fact strong enough to de-magnetize the magnetic strip on your ATM card. I know this for certain because I unwittingly carried one of the larger magnets around in the same pocket where I keep my wallet. The next time I went to the store my ATM card would not work. So I tried my Visa card. It wouldn't work either. So these magnets are great, but use with caution!
