“I am a repeat customer of the 30mm ferrite magnets as they are perfect for my needs. I use them to make and sell decorative magnets so the quality is important to my business. Whilst the magnets are suitable, I feel the quality has altered in recent months and methods of shipping resulted in many of the magnets being damaged in the process. Customer service was great at sending out some replacements but please reconsider how magnets are shipped. Please do not send them out loose in a bag as they chip and can break. Go back to sending them in plastic boxes or in columns wrapped well with bubble wrap to prevent damage. Thank you 😊”

Hi Joanna, firstly thank you so much for being a repeat customer and for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear that our 30mm ferrite magnets have been a great fit for your business, and we truly appreciate your loyalty. We apologise for the recent issues you've experienced with the packaging. Because you ordered a larger quantity, we packed them differently to optimise shipping, but we completely understand how this affected the quality of the magnets upon arrival. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us, and we're already making changes based on your experience. We'll be ensuring more secure packaging method on the larger quantity packs, to ensure your magnets arrive in perfect condition. We hope you continue to trust us for your magnet needs, and we’re committed to providing you with the high-quality products and service you’ve come to expect. Thank you again for your business, and we look forward to serving you in the future! 😊 If you have any further questions or queries about your order or need help with an application don't hesitate to reach out at sales@magnetexpert.com.

“The service from first4magnets was good, no issues there. The product however had an issue. The self adhesive roll has a blue film, which is extremely difficult to remove. This resulted in creases along the whiteboard roll.”

“Ordered item delivered after a reminder. The magnet has been installed at the cold water copper tube supplying water to the kitchen sink. It is still too early to comment on its effectiveness of elimination of calcium in the hard water.”

“the magnets themselves are actually excellent and the service is very good. the reason for low rating is that the adhesive on the magnets is pretty poor and did not stick properly even after 48 hours. if this can be rectified i have no issue with giving a full 5 stars.”

“The magnets themselves are very strong .If buying them for pure magnet purposes very good . However I needed strong adhesive and sadly this is lacking . I tried 2 magnets luckily before I used the rest , both fell down . I am going to try using gorilla glue as adhesive , if this doesn't work they are not fit for the purpose i bought them for”

“The only element of the purchase that I have experienced so far is order placement. The order process is good, but obtaining an invoice as an attached document seems to be a problem. I have requested a copy and have yet to receive one. I must have the document for posting.”

“I bought these magnets specifically to fasten a lightweight notice board to the side of a refrigerator. I stuck six magnets spaced around the edges and the board adhered to the fridge but then slid down to the bottom. Subsequent tries produced the same result. Obviously not suitable for the purpose.”

“Initially a little disappointed that only one of the two magnets had been countersunk. Designed to make close contact made impossible because the screw head holds the two magnets apart. Unfortunately the first time the magnets were used, one of the magnets broke across its weakest point. The screw is holding it in place but will probably need to be replaced.”

“Not very strong for fridge magnets. Not all fridge magnets can be attached.”

“I wanted magnets for my grandson. You need to read very carefully the size, and the strength of the magnets. Obviously depending on their use. Some I ordered were so strong, and small I couldn’t get them apart. The company is helpful, so my advice is get in touch first before you purchase!”

“Using the website is not as straight forward as it would appear. The filters remove some magnets that shouldn't have been filtered out. I like the image of a pound coin thus giving a sense of scale.”

“I bought the 40kg pull magnets and the 6kg pull magnet. The 40kg Pull magnets are nowhere near as strong. The 6kg magnets come with protective metal plates for transportation so they don’t magnetise to other things, Where as the 40kg magnets don’t which is odd. I’m going to keep the 40kg magnets as I will have use for them. But not what I had planned for them. ??”

“Good product - reasonable time for delivery. Cardboard packaging was damaged so the middle of the magnetic sheet was also damaged. Not the end of the world as I was cutting the sheet into smaller sizes anyway but really it should have been delivered unblemished. Wether this was a courier issue or the fact that the cardboard packaging was unfit for purpose, I leave that to others discretion.”

“The reason for the 3 stars was the time the delivery took but this was due to the post service and not the company. Possible reason for delay was the Covid 19 situation? Magnet was as expected with good safety advice attached to the product”
