Summary: Terrific Toy
Comment: My 3 1/2 year old loves Magnatiles. He will play with them for long periods of time. Many adults seem to enjoy playing with them too. :) I also like how neatly they pack away -- a lot of tiles fit in a very little space.

Summary: Best toy ever!
Comment: Our kids are 2 & 4. They come back to play with these over and over. Their friends love it and we buy this for every birthday party when we need a gift for a good friend. Durable and will last forever. We discovered these at a kids museum where they get abused all week - still look and work like new.

Summary: Simple but brilliant
Comment: My first review ever, but this toy merits it. I have 4 and 7 year old boys and this kept them busy for a couple of hours on a snowy day with nary a thought for the tv. They are still playing with them every day a month later, as are their friends of both sexes. My only issue is that they are a bit expensive and I would like to have more since it would be nice for them to build larger structures, but, at roughly a dollar a piece, they will have to wait a while. That's OK though since I know they will be playing with them for some time to come.

Summary: My kids love them -- and I like playing with them too
Comment: My rating of the product speaks for itself so rather than add to the positive comments and simply repeat what others wrote, I'll mention some things that I haven't seen pointed out in the other reviews, at least not in the more recent ones:

1) This is the opaque set (you can't see through them) but translucent Magna-Tiles (that you can see through) are also sold. If you've already bought one set, you may want get the same kind when you buy another. I do know for a fact that a 100-piece translucent set is sold -- because that's what we have.

2) As you'd expect, the larger sets are a better value; you can get about three times as many pieces with this set for only twice the price of the 32-piece set, and the more pieces you have, the more options you have for building stuff. More is definitely better in this case, but my kids had a blast with them even when all we had was a 32-piece set.

3) The 100-piece set contains the following:

4 large squares (floor / ceiling pieces)
11 right triangles (half-squares)
50 small squares
20 equilateral (the same length on all sides) triangles
15 isosceles triangles (one "short" and two "long" sides)

When I first saw these I thought they were a bit pricey because they're essentially just pieces of plastic with magnets inside. In hindsight, though, I realize that was a bit like thinking that a great book is nothing more than a lot of paper with some ink on it.
