Vista Print Magnets vs. Magnetstreet

I just got my samples from Vistaprint and the magnets were a lot more flimzy than I was expecting.

Did any of you get samples from both places. Are the Magnetstreet magnets significantly more sturdy?? I hope so

I definitely recommend Magnetstreet magnets. The magnet was quite sturdy and the pictures are very clear. High recommendation.

Magnetstreet is much better quality in my opinion!!! (this is who we went with for our STDs).

Hope this helps!

At first i was a little concerned about the magnets i got from vistaprint.
But to be honest, they hold stuff on the fridge, and were very easy to send out, and didnt require any extra postage even though i put them on card stock and included several inserts.

everyone loved them, and still raves about them 3 months later.

my cousin got her magnets from Magnet street. They are great too.

the magnetstreet magnets are awesome quality....just be careful with the lettering, i'm not crazy about how my lettering on the magnets came out. it's too light!

i just got my STD from magnet street. it was a little thinner than i had expected, but dont' get me wrong, I love them! but i agree the coloring of our names came out lighter on the magnet than it looked in the proof they emailed me, but they warn you of that. you can still see the names, i just would have liked them to be a big brighter.

overall they are good quality, price and service!!

Good advice. THANKS. If I decide to do my own design, I'll be sure to make the letters dark. I requested a sample from magnetstreet. How long do the samples generally take to come?

You can get free samples from Magnetstreet. They came pretty quickly. They were great quality compared to STD magnets Ive gotten from friends in the past!

I got samples from both. I received samples yesterday from Vista print and the quality was very good and the magnet was thick. I thought Magnetst were thin

Re: Vista Print Magnets vs. Magnetstreet

you'll have them within a week, usually sooner.

As for them being flimsy there is no way. I have at least 10 different samples & they are all very high quality from the mini magnet to the regular sized magnet.

I hope so! I'm so ready to get these things started already. I just want to find a sturdy magnet. Vista Print was not cutting it. My fingers are crossed Magnet Street comes through!
