Tools and Hardware Reviews of InterDesign Forma Magnetic Pencil Cup, Brushed Stainless Steel
Customer Review: Magnet doesn't hold
Summary: 1 Stars
I have a high-quality porcelain white board, and I have a variety of magnetic accessories that stick to it like glue. But this thing won't even stay upright. It has a huge metal plate on the back that looks just like a magnet, and it there does seem to be a little tug when I set against the board. But as soon as I put more than a couple of pens in it, it starts sliding down the board or it rotates on its own axis and dumps them out! Pretty useless.
Given all the positive reviews for this product, I'm going to assume that I got the same kind of dud that JT Fundaddy got, return it, and see what happens with the next one. But even if that one works, I have to question the production quality of this product. Its sole claim to fame is that it's magnetic, and it's not.
Quick update, 2/12/11: I complained to seller, which in my case was Organize-It, and they immediately sent me a replacement at no charge. So they did the right thing, but the product still isn't very good. The new cup is slightly more magnetic than the first one, and it will just about stay where I put it on the white board. But it's still pretty weak and will fall off if I bump the board. Definitely not a good product.
Customer Review: Nice look, but not durable.
Summary: 2 Stars
I like the look, but the construction wasn't what I had hoped for. The bottom fell apart and, short of welding it back together, I'm not sure how to repair it.Customer Review: Pretty good.

I was a little apprehensive when I ordered this magnetic holder since I read (or should I say "watch") the one star review that shows it not holding to that guys refrigerator door. I have to say that I had no problem whatsoever with it, the minute I put it in the refrigerator door it hold very strongly, I do have a bunch of pens and pencils there now and it has not bunched.
Customer Review: Strong Magnets!!
Summary: 5 Stars
My son has the pencil cup holder in his inside his locker door. It keeps his pens, pencils and markers handy. Although he slams the door when he closes the locker, the holder stays in place!!! Recommend highly!!!Customer Review: Such a great idea!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this pencil cup! No more catch-all pencil drawer in my kitchen, and my pens are right next to my magnetic shopping list, on the fridge, where I need them. And, added bonus, I can keep those pens up high where they are easy to access for quick notes or additions to the shopping list, but out of reach for my artistic 3 year old! One other thing I love - the magnet is super strong! I can stuff this thing with ALL my pens, and it never slides or falls off when the fridge door gets slammed!
