MAGNA-TILES Rectangles 8-Piece Expansion Magnetic Construction Set, The ORIGINAL Magnetic Building Brand

Magnatiles are a toy worth their money. We bought a starter pack two years ago and have added to it regularly since then. This is the one toy my kids (5 & 3) play with every day. Our 10m old loves to knock them down and seems to like the different colors. We’ve only had one tile break in two years of rough play, this is a great investment toy. Bonus: pickup is easy and kind of fun, the pieces stack up magnetically without effort. This is now a favorite gift for family kids, it’s pricey but worth it.

Purchased these for my granddaughter and she loved them. Great for building and creating.

I gave my grandson his first set of Magnatiles three years ago when he was four. Since then I've given him expansion sets, this set being the fouth. He actually requested this set for his 7th birthday. I can't think of another toy in the history of my kids or grandkids that was still in perfect condition and still being enjoyed after three years. Magnatiles are beautiful, durable and expandable. What more could you ask for? Oh, and his nine year old sister loves them too. They build fantastic structures together without squabbling. I'd have to say this product has almost miraculous powers!! Don't settle for another brand though. If you read the reviews, you'll see Magnatiles are the only brand that lasts.

We got the set of 100 magna tiles and I was trying to figure out what to add to our collection. I read some reviews that the polygon set wasnt very compatible with the squares and triangles included in the normal sets (hexagons would have been more compatible) and therefore you really would need a couple of the pentagon sets to be able to use them all together, because otherwise 8 pieces aren't enough to do anything with. We opted for this rectangle set instead, and it is great. The four big squares are helpful for stabilizing most creations, and even as they joined the 4 we got in the 100 piece set, I feel as if we could still use more of these. I wasn't sure how useful the rectangles would be because you could obviously just use two small squares. But they are really helpful in making doors and windows easily (see photo). Overall a great expansion. We will probably get another soon!

My nieces and nephews love these. You will want a big set to start with and then add to it. You need a lot of them. Great for creative building and play.

This shape is essential for building and not included in most sets. Great to just add to our extensive collection!

Nice colors. Magnets do not come loose. May be a bit pricey but stand up well to many hours of play, imagination and stack neatly for storage.

My grandkids love these. I have had a set at my house for a few years. They have a set at their house. Daughter asked me to buy another set so they will stop arguing! Mission accomplished. She said she has had cheaper sets that crack and magnets fall out (choking hazard). The best thing I recently discovered is that my 90 year old mom loved playing with them right along with the great grands! This is a great "toy" which is fun and can satisfy all skill levels.
