Is the magnet strong? I bought some of these somewhere else but the magnets were so weak it wouldn't stay magnetized to the car.

The magnet seems very strong. My husband drove from NY to AZ, and the key holder did not move.

Yeah it's amazing through snow and heat and freezing rain mine is still going strong.

For me, the magnets are very strong. Like all magnets, they work best if attached to solid, thick iron or steel. Mine is attached to one of the frames underneath. A metal alloy, or iron/steel with a thick covering (like rust-proofing) will weaken the bond.

The recessed magnet is designed to securely attach and hold to any steel surface. If you are experiencing issues, please contact customer service at 800-464-2088.

Plenty strong. I put it on the inside of my bumper for a few months without the key, just to make sure it would stay before possibly losing it and the key. I just bought another one for my other vehicle! Works very well.

The magnets are very powerful for what they are, I believe they are rare earth magnets however I am not sure they would stay in place. If you are not going off roading where you hit a lot of bumps/rocks or are not going very fast then they would probably work. I had one on the outside of my vehicle because I was in an accident and forgot it was there and drove off to a near gas station where it was still there but I did not get over 40 MPH.

Yes the magnet works really good and is very strong.....I attach it to my tailgate looking down at the hitch...I worry about scratching the paint but haven't had that problem yet

Magnet isn't strong enough for that unless it's behind some sort of wind brake. I don't use mine on my vehicle though. It blew off my shipping container house in 45mph wind.

you need to place this device inside the car. The magnet is not strong enough to hold it to the body.

You've got to be kidding! A magnet is a magnet. That's like asking if a magnetic engine block heater will work in freezing weather!

I haven't experienced any issues with the magnet. I usually try to keep my cards with magnetic strips in my wallet though, for fear of ruining them.

No worries! This will hold faster than your vehicle can travel! Magnet is incredible!

Yes. I mounted a piece of metal to my dash and just "stick" my phone to it when I get in the car. The magnet is my favorite part of the case. Of course it also does an excellent job of dispersing the shock when you drop the phone.

It's basically a big sticker, nonmetal, magnets won't work unless you stick it on a metal surface. You can try Quartet or FORAY brands.

Yea the magnetic is what holds it in place. Not a good idea if yours is made of plastic.

Yes the magnet is very strong, your not going to have any issues with it falling off.

the magnet is actually pretty strong.. the promo vid is showing it can withstand an ipad.. im using it on my s4 and note 2.. and it still holds it very strongly..

hello Virginia, I thing the cars will hold as long as the strips are screwed into the wall/surface as per the directions. The magnets that come with the strip seem strong enough to the car, but I am trying to remember how much the little cars weigh. I think definately two magnets would a little car.

Good question. I will conduct an experiment and let you know. I don't know how strong these are in quantitative terms but they are pretty damn strong for such tiny magnets.

The magnet's in the base. So it's what you attach to your car. Little metal cards are all your phone would have on them.

No, it's not magnetic. It's a card game that my kids (6 & 8) played while I was driving. They didn't read all the instructions, but it's so self explanatory that they really didn't need to...in fact, they made up their own games with different variations. You could play along, like you would the ABC game, or the license plate game. It was worth the $. Have fun!
