2 Piece Playmags Magnetic Car Beds

Let me first say I am not getting compensated in any way for this review. I am writing this because I had such a hard time deciding what to by because of all the mixed reviews for the various brands. I hope this will help some parents with their decision. I currently have 4 different sets of magnet tile toys: - 32 piece set Shape Mags (Purchased Dec 2016) - 2 Shape Mags 12X12 stabilizers .(Purchased March 2017) - 100 + 18 piece set Playmags .(Purchased March 2017) - 8 piece polygons Magna-Tiles .(Purchased March 2017) Our first set was the 32 piece Shape Mags. I put it on the kids' (ages 4 and 2) Christmas wish list. They loved it! Even after 3 months, they still loved playing with it, when most other Christmas presents were forgotten. The only problem was the 32 piece set is too small for 2 kids to share. After lots of research, I decided to buy the other 3 sets at the same time. Playmags had mixed reviews so I opened the set and examined the pieces before showing them to the kids. They were great! The plastic is sturdy and the magnets are strong. Maybe they fixed the problems that got them the negative reviews. Price Playmags 100 piece set + 18 click-ins (not magnetic) sells for $69.99 Shape Mags 120 piece set, including 16 fences and 2 people figures sells for $69.99 Magna-Tiles 100 piece set sells for $119.99 Magnet Strength Playmags, wins, hands down. One of the reviews said the magnets are too strong and caused pinching. Even my 2-year-old didn't have any problems with that. Magna-Tiles and Shape Mags have similar magnet strengths. Both are fine for building tall structures. Playmags just hold together better. Color Playmags and Shape Mags have the same vibrant colors. Magna-Tiles colors are a bit muted. I prefer the more vibrant colors, but it's just my opinion. Compatibility The sets mix and fit together perfectly. Conclusion 1st place: Playmags The price is comparable to Shape Mags. The magnets are stronger, which makes for sturdier structures. I prefer the more vibrant colors. 2nd place: Shape Mags The magnets are not as strong, but still strong enough to make whatever your child imagines. The stabilizers are a great addition. I highly recommend them to complete any set. If you really want the originals and you're willing to pay the extra $50 for a set of 100 pieces, then by all means, buy the Magna-Tiles. Other than that, I see no reason to pay more. Shape Mags are of the same quality and magnet strength. Playmags' magnets are significantly stronger. I plan to keep all 4 sets. If I buy another set for a gift, I would buy Playmags.

These magnetic tiles are great for kids. They help with motor skills and kids creativity. Just awesome.

This is our fourth set of magnetic tiles. The first two we purchased were MagnaTiles brand (a used forty-something piece set without rivets and a new thirty-something piece set with rivets). Once I found out that there were other brands, we bought the 100 piece Picasso Tiles set (no rivets). Finally, because our four year old son literally plays with these off and on all day every day from the time he wakes up to the time he goes to bed (for about a year and a half now), we bought yet another set - this time Playmags brand (has rivets [including this info because I know some people are concerned about their kids swallowing magnets]). All I can say is that someone really dropped the ball when it comes to this toy's patent, because they are all the same - same size, same weight, same magnet-strength and quality (I had read a few reviews about the magnets repelling each other - we do not have that problem at all). The Picasso Tiles and the Plagmags are slightly more translucent. The Playmags' rivets are slightly larger than the MagnaTiles. They all work together seamlessly. I recommend this Playmags set over the other sized sets and brands because number one - your child will want as many of these as possible in order to make all the cool things they dream up. Number two - this set comes with two cars, which even if you get the 48 piece MagnaTile set with the car, it's only one car; Playmags is the only other brand that I know of that has cars (my son loves them - they even connect, train-like). Number three - the variety of shapes is unbeatable. Number four - they're less expensive while offering the largest size set I've seen. Playmags are worthy of five stars. If we ever purchase more magnetic tiles (although, hopefully this will hold him for a while), this will definitely be the brand we choose. Not to sound too cliche, but they really are fun for the whole family.

Wonderful gift for a 3 year old who loves to build.

My three kids and I absolutely love these Playmags tiles. This is our second purchase of 100 tiles. They have quickly become one of our favorite things to play with together. The kids come up with the most creative ideas, building houses, towers, and entire little worlds. I enjoy watching their imaginations grow and seeing how proud they are when their creations come to life. The magnets are strong, the colors are bright, and the tiles hold up well even with lots of playtime. I also appreciate how they encourage problem solving and patience while still being fun. It is such a great way for the kids to learn, explore, and build confidence without realizing it. I highly recommend these for any family looking for a fun and meaningful activity that keeps kids engaged and off screens.

arricchisce parecchio le possibilità di gioco

Boosts child’s creativity. Good quality. Super klocki do zabawy dla 3 latka jak i starszych dzieci.

Echt een succes. Is uitwisselbaar met duplo. De magneetjes hadden wat sterker gemogen.

My grandkids love these magnetic people and they are bigger than the ones I have

J’ai acheté ces blocs de construction magnétiques pour mes enfants et je suis vraiment ravi ! Les pièces sont solides, bien finies et les aimants tiennent parfaitement. Les couleurs sont vives et attirent tout de suite l’attention des enfants. Ils passent des heures à construire, inventer et développer leur imagination tout en s’amusant. C’est à la fois éducatif et ludique, parfait pour stimuler la créativité et la motricité fine. Très bon rapport qualité/prix, je recommande vivement ce jouet !
