This magnet really helps with the pins i remove from fabric as i sew. The magnet is very strong and suctions to side of my sewing machine. I bought two of these. I also put one on my serger. I love these! Keeps pins off my table and floor. And who hasnt stepped on a pin....my hubby wont come into my "WOMEN CAVE" as he calls it. He dosen't wont to step on a pin.. i vacuum pretty good..but you know that one will find your foot..

Longarm quilters always need snippet scissors nearby so attaching the scissors it to the machine is ideal as the machine moves with the standing/moving quilter. My machine is paint coated with an almost smooth finish and for this product, that is the problem. The suction cup on the pin place doesn't hold on to a less than perfectly smooth surface. I have one such a spot on my longarm but it is not in the most efficient location for use. There's nothing really wrong with the product... The buyer just needs to know it's not ideal for ALL sewing machine surfaces.

This is a great little product. I have purchased three now. The suction cup holds its grip on the machine and the magnet is strong. One point, it won't stick on the Bernina 820 housing. The plastic is not smooth enough for the suction cup to get a foothold.

I have one of these for each of my 3 machines. I keep one on my serger, my coverstitch, & my sewing machine. One of my scissor spot magnets got lost when I had my machine serviced. So I'm here purchasing a replacement for it as I wouldn't go without. I use it regularly to hold pins & scissors. It's so convenient to have it right there on the machine. The main reason I'm writing this review is in response to a previous review stating that it didn't stick to their machine due to a textured surface. This magnet comes with a clear sticker to fix that very issue(I uploaded a picture of the sticker it came with). I'm guessing that reviewer must have missed it. If your machine has a texture, you clean the area you want to attach the magnet w/alcohol, place the sticker, wet the suction cup, & attach the magnet to the sticker. That should take care of any problems with textured surfaces. I've never had a problem with these sticking to any of my machines. One of them has been attached to my sewing machine for at least 6 years and still going strong! My four inch Ginghers & pins stay attached through long sewing sessions & have never fallen off. Definitely great quality and at a reasonable price for what you get. I highly recommend this for all sewists!Read full review

So happy with this purchase I tried other magnet type items and they just didn’t hold my snaps as easily as this does.
