Great Magnet , unbelievable Strength..

Crazy strong magnet. Seems well made and easy to use.

Very strong magnet

After several months of use, my experience with the DIYMAG Strong Neodymium Fishing Magnet has been a journey of highs and lows. Marketed for its impressive 700 lbs pulling strength and versatile applications, this magnet promised to be a game-changer for my outdoor adventures and miscellaneous retrieval needs. However, the reality was a mix of exceptional moments tempered by notable drawbacks. Performance and Quality: While formidable, the magnet's pulling power did not consistently meet the lofty expectations set by its specifications. Its strength is undeniable in ideal conditions, showcasing the potential to retrieve various metal objects from rivers and lakes. The quality of the magnet itself, encased in a durable steel cup and coated with a triple layer of Ni+Cu+Ni, speaks to a thoughtful design aimed at longevity and rust resistance. This protective measure ensures that the magnet's core strength remains unaffected by external conditions, a testament to its high-quality manufacturing standards. Versatility and Use: True to its description, the magnet's design, featuring a countersunk hole and eyebolt, lends itself well to various activities. Its utility is broad, from magnet fishing to retrieving lost items and even some unconventional uses like cleaning up yards from metallic debris. However, the practicality of these uses is hampered by the magnet's actual pulling capacity, which, while strong, may not always reach the heights advertised. Safety and Durability Concerns: A significant concern arose from the attachment mechanism. The eyebolt, crucial for securing the magnet to a rope or line, proved to be a weak link. During a routine throw into a lake, the magnet detached from the rope, leading to a frustrating and time-consuming retrieval effort. This incident highlights a critical flaw in the product's design or assembly process, emphasizing the need for users to secure and double-check all connections before use. Misleading Claims? Feedback from various users, including my experience, suggests that the advertised pulling strength may be optimistic. While the magnet performs admirably in many scenarios, expecting it to lift objects near the 700 lbs mark without direct contact and under ideal conditions might lead to disappointment. Potential buyers must temper their expectations and consider the magnet's capabilities within practical, everyday use. Conclusion: The DIYMAG Strong Neodymium Fishing Magnet stands as a tool of considerable potential, marred by some inconsistencies in performance and reliability. Its construction and protective coating are highlights, ensuring the magnet remains a long-term investment for enthusiasts. However, the issues with the attachment mechanism and the somewhat overstated pulling strength are drawbacks that cannot be overlooked. This product offers a solid foundation for those intrigued by the prospect of magnet fishing or needing a strong magnet for various retrieval tasks. Yet, it's advisable to proceed cautiously, reinforce the attachment points, and manage expectations regarding its pulling power.

I originally bought this to put on my sewing machine to use as a guide for mother thread to glide when sewing or rewinding a bobbin. It was bigger than I anticipated and was so strong I couldn’t move it! So I bought smaller ones for the same purpose. I now behave attached this one to a metal lamp the hold a Bluetooth speaker. That magnet isn’t going anywhere. I just never expected that something relatively small could be that POWERFUL. Great buy. Worth every penny.

At first it looked like the one I already had (1st pic) but it's bigger and STRONGER! I couldn't remove it from bulkhead door by hand and had to use a dog leash to break it free! This magnet is NO JOKE, no more tugging and trying to pull something up only to have the magnet disconnect and have to go back to square one. It's only slightly bigger than my old one so there's no issue with tossing it out there. The only thing I found odd was the loop is threaded onto magnet (2nd pic). I put red loctite on the thread and no way will it unscrew itself. You could also use super glue if you don't have loctite. I might even peen the end of the threaded part with a hammer and punch so it can't come off even if loctite fails. Great bang for buck and will illuminate the waste of time repeatedly trying to pull something up.

Worked 100% as should. I use it to hold down a trash bucket on my lawn mower.

WARNING!!! Do not waste your money. Total SCAM. Very disappointed in this purchase and will return it. I have refrigerator magnets that are stronger than this. They state this magnet has 300 Lbs pulling force. (Lbs =pounds right?) Reality, this magnet only has 10 Lbs pulling force. Maybe, 15 Lbs at most. WTF?? This company is obviously lying and misleading people. (There's no way that was an accident. 300lbs is way different than 10lbs. No typo. Not a mistake.) They're intentionally misleading people. This company shouldn't be allowed to sell anything on Amazon. Plus, they lied about shipping time, as my purchase arrived many days late. Good thing I made purchase for a hobby, and not as a gift or for something important. But after waiting for item to arrive late, then realizing they intentionally ripped me off, and now having to go through process to return it...... I'm really pissed off. (It's gonna cost me more in gas to return it, than it cost in first place. So I lose either way.) This magnet isn't even close enough to the claimed pulling force. I'd keep it and eat the loss if it had even 30lbs of the claimed 300lbs pulling force. Totally regret making this purchase. I can't even get the satisfaction of throwing it at somebody. Note to Amazon: WTF??? Why do you allow this nonsense? Somebody owes me for wasting my time and the cost of dealing with this rip off.

I don't believe it's as strong as advertised. It didn't work for what I needed it for. Returned.
