> 24 hourI love these Grabbit Magnetic Pincushions. I have two and have given several for gifts. They are very functional for anyone who sews and drops pins as well as anyone who needs to organize any kind of straight or safety pins. They really hold on to them well and help with picking up dropped ones easily and quickly. The colors are also very nice and cheery. They are keepers. The only draw back is the straight pins that come with it are very weak and easily bend.

> 24 hourI know, I know, its a magnetized thing for pins but it is pure awesomeness. First of all, its far more substantial than I expected. The base is weighted so it will stay exactly where you put it.. The color is deep and rich and it comes with the colorful pins shown in the illustration. Before now I was trying to be sensible by re-purposing a refrigerator magnet, which wouldve been brilliant if I sewed on my actual refrigerator. Since I dont and my sewing table isnt magnetized, it collected the pins but was always slip-sliding away. Sometimes the simplest things can bring the most joy. This was a joyful discovery for me.

> 24 hourThis is my second grabbit, the other one having been very old and broke when I dropped it on a concrete floor. It was purchased when they first came out. I was gifted a magnetized metal bowl to take its place but it isn’t the same. The pins are easier to pick up when they are on top instead of down inside a bowl.

> 24 hourThis product is a must for gathering your pins and not accidently pricking yourself. It makes picking up my pins up way more faster, and saves me time and the pain from accidently pricking myself. It is a absolute deal for its price and I would recommend it to people who sew. It even came with pins as well which was a neat little surprise.

> 24 hourIm new to sewing. The pins I originally bought had fine heads and were hard to see. It was also easy to miss one that might not bave made it back into its storage container. This magnetic pin cushion is sold with bright coloured pin heads which are easy to see. The cushion grips the pins firmly enough that when I turn it upside down the pins remain firmly attached to it. I can hover it around my work area to make sure I havent missed any pins or needles. I am happy with this purchase.

> 24 hourIve been sewing for 60 years and never knew how much I needed this! This has a strong magnet and it is so much easier to drop pins on it than to stop and stick them into a pin cushion or just leave them on the table where they risk falling on the floor. Such a little thing but so convenient, love the green color too. Seems sturdy and well made. Love the large pins that come with it too.

> 24 hourI purchased one of these for myself and one for my Mom. They hold all sizes of pins - quilting and sewing. If you happen to drop some pins on the floor while sewing you just flip it upside down and it picks up the pins on the floor. I would definitely recommend.

> 24 hourI love the way that the pin holder grabs the pins and places them all in the same direction, also if a pin drops on the floor you can just wave it around the floor and it will pick up the pin

> 24 hourI bought this as a gift for my mom. I have organized her pins by color since I was a kid, so I took the liberty of doing so again! This is a pretty strong magnet, so be careful about keeping it near electronics. Its not heavy at all. My Kindle Fire HD is heavier. Nice color and finish. Doesnt look cheap at all and holds pins well. Forces them to center. I dropped one while organizing the pins and it scooped them right up!
