I've this set for over a year and it's very durable. My son dropped some of tiles on hardwood floor and none of them is broken so far. The magnet is strong enough to hold the pieces together. However, 100 piece is not enough to build lots of stuff (e.g. nice castle, christmas tree....etc) illustrated from the manual book comes with the set. Keep in mind NOT all 100 piece is magnet tiles. Lots of them are just plastic letters blocks which are useless IMO. My son is not interested in playing/building the tiles but he builds 3D shapes like cubes and pyramids at home as Math homework. Part of elementary school math curriculum is learning about 3D shapes. He knows he needs 6 squares to make cubes, 1 square and 4 triangles to build pyramid now.
The Magnet Tiles brand (ebay link posted by another member) is the best set. Magnet Tiles is the top brand name which has high resell values in second hand market. Magnet Tiles brand is the top reputable brand that you can find in target. This brand is supposed to have the best quality with strongest magnet. If I have to choose again, I would buy the set from ebay one instead.
I just ordered a very similarly price/piece deal here:
although it's slightly more than double the price ($73) for almost double the pieces (199), although I would argue the pieces in what I linked are better.
That said, you get faster shipping from amazon, probably an easier return process, etc., plus you don't have to buy so many pieces.
edit: I did really bad math, not "slightly more than double." it's $13 more than double, sorry about that

How are they better? It's more than double the price.
Never purchased this brand, but we do have three different brands for our (4 and 6 year old) kids and all three work together and are close enough to identical that you don't really notice. The kids love them.

I point out that, yes, they are more than double the price, but you also get almost almost double the pieces AND the pieces are arguably better options, such as getting "car" pieces with wheels, more large squares, no "window clickins", a LOT more squares than triangles, a storage box instead of a bag (not a big deal), etc. This is all subjective, of course.
Also, as booboopanda pointed out, the brand from the eBay deal is generally considered to be one of the top brands.

We have 3 of this exact set. Oldest set is probably 7 years old. Great strong magnets with rivets. Kids love them. Considering getting another.
Thank you for the recommendation. I have a set of the Magna Tiles safari edition and it's small. The kiddo loves it though.
I read some brands are cheaply made and break easily with drops resulting in the dangerous tiny magnets around. That's extremely dangerous when ingested. I have a toddler and an infant so I'm just being a little careful.
Perfect timing for a birthday gift for my soon to be 3 year old.
Any thoughts on Tytan branded tiles? They are 220 pieces for $55 and includes tiles/shapes only, no letter blocks/window inserts counting as pieces. I think I had to google them to find a listing elsewhere(maybe sams club comment had a picture of the booklet with number of pieces).

My kiddo loves the magnatiles set we have. It's small but has a few animals as well. This will be huge in comparison.
