It’s not what I expected
I wanted to give one star because it wasn’t what I expected or liked. But it is well built, not falling apart, and the description is accurate.When I down rate products, it is because the seller either misrepresents the item or ships a malfunctioning or broken item. I don’t believe it’s fair to the seller or potential customers to rate a product based on my opinion, alone.What I can do is explain why I don’t enjoy this product, by comparing it with others in its catagory that you may be accustomed to buying:Most sliders come in three pieces, which, when they are expanded in a stair-step format, make a clicking sound. You can expand them all the way or just one at a time, but it’s the clicking noise that is missing here. This item only has two pieces, and there’s no “ledge” to catch it. I’ve dropped it several times because one slid off the other section, occasionally losing a piece (hint: if you have anything metal in the drop zone, look there, first! Sheesh)They didn’t lie when they labeled it a slider, because it does slide. But one half has a coating like thin plastic sheath covering several small magnets in this item and glued along the edges, as opposed to magnets imbedded into the original sliders (however, as long as the sheath remains affixed, there’s no risk of losing magnets). The other half is covered with metal and affixed with tiny screws. The crinkling sound is from the small magnets knocking against each other under the plastic coated half. I actually do find this to be quieter than the original slider, but I prefer that sound of metal on metal clanking together, and the grinding of the metals. If you are buying this to satisfy your audio stimming, you may be disappointed.It’s not small; has a good weight, and fits well in the hand. And I do like the wonky Lego design of dots that allow the user to grip the slider and move the pieces. I actually wish my other sliders had this feature.Aside from the plastic or fabric coating on the one side, which I question it’s durability, this is well assembled, and the magnets are strong.Just as I was completing this review, I decided to pick up the item and play with it again.Do you ever get curious about the insides of items? You think, “That’s just two screws! What could go wrong?” And I DID happen to have an octagon head screwdriver.‼️DON’T DO IT!!‼️As soon as I unscrewed the second screw, the entire thing snapped and I had eight tiny but very strong magnets and two tiny screws as one unit! Thank goodness the screws were ferrous because I would’ve never found them if they fell in the floor!It comes with a metal divider to keep the magnets from snapping together. But that doesn’t stop them from flipping out and joining its little magnet friend when I try to place a second one. I almost got them in, then they moved a bit, flipped over and popped back out.Trial and error taught me to place the cover over each magnet one-by-one as I placed them to prevent them from escaping.I finally got the magnets in their place and the cover snuggly on top. Then the screws kept popping out of the hole, so I had to place it in the hole with the screwdriver tip, and immediately screw it in. Finally! It’s fixed!Naturally, I grabbed the other half of the slider to put the two pieces together, and they were off-centered. This irritates my OCD to NO END!! So now I need to pull the screws back out so I can try again. But THIS time, I know where I went wrong, and placing these together shouldn’t be so difficult. I need to place the spacer on the OTHER half of the slider and place the magnets in so they stick to the magnets under the fabric. Then put the deep part of the casing over the magnets and slide them over on the top until it snaps. Easy peasy bumble beesy! I must try that.But I’m too shaky from this last fiasco to try right now. Because knowing about the setup actually seems to be fun, and I do want to give this thing another shot.But until I get around to fixing it (which might be as late as never), it won’t be sitting around in a junk drawer hoarding all my household dust and sticking to dead batteries. I placed them on my refrigerator, and they look pretty cool.So even if you don’t like them as slider fidget gadgets, they do make awesome refrigerator magnets.I might just buy me another slider from this company.

The perfect fidget, Affordable!
The media could not be loaded. Dense, hefty, versatile, good magnets, high quality.It feels good and it's fun and easy to play with without being disruptive.+The Lego texture is perfect for grip -- essential for a slider where the magnets are less powerful.+Magnets aren't too strong, which is essential for a slider toy when you don't want to work too hard to slide them apart.+So smooth and easy, you can play with it in either hand.+While I haven't tried out the LautieEDC Shuffle, this slider seems to do what that does and more, with a dozen possible orientations where the magnets connect. All while being a sixth of the price.°Makes a crinkley noise when rubbed together, but it's not that loud.-There is one way of sliding the magnets together that creates a loud snap, and if you do that over and over you'll annoy people.This is my new favorite fidget, you're gonna love it

Helps me focus
I got this because having something to fidget with helps me concentrate. I love that this is metal. It feels heavy compared to plastic ones. I can feel the quality and the size is nice, just big or small enough to work with one hand. It has a very nice calming effect for me. The raised nubs are also very calming to run your fingers over. The only thing I didn't like was that there is a black covering over one side on the inside. It causes a sound like cellophane rather than a clicking metal sound. I asked the seller if that could be removed and they said it can't. So if you are looking for more of a metal-on-metal sound, this isn't it. If the sound doesn't matter to you, I think you will like this. I got the copper color.

Solid satisfying fidget at a great price
Feels great in hand, not overly heavy but good weight to it. Very solid metal feel, doesn't feel cheap or flimsy. The actions all feel good whether it be sliding, pulling and, pushing. Magnets have a very satisfying noise as you move the pieces around My only Con is the "lego" type bumps. They do have a nice texture but can get a bit grating on your fingers if you spend a lot of time with it.Noise level is quieter than a lot of metal fidgets but could see it causing problems in a quiet office type environment. Holding it in your palm and slowly sliding you can reduce the noise level by a good amount. However in any space with some background noise it seems like this wouldn't be too distracting

Great value. I take it everywhere.
I’ve had it in my pocket everyday for the last month: bars, sports games, work, and especially driving. Some wear+tear, paint is worn on contact points, but for the price it’s fine. Compact size that fits my hand comfortably. Magnet strength is sufficient, but I do occasionally drop it. Although audible and not the quietest, it’s not much more than a pen click. Not dramatic enough that those around me complain. I love it so much that I’d buy a second one just for in my car.

Fun but small
Wish I could give this a better review but when you spend under $10 can’t complain too much. Good: the fidget itself is fun, snappy and sounds like Velcro. It has a good weight and the Lego style nubs are a fidget in their own right. Bad: not ideal for small hands, there is nothing really keeping you from send one half across the room. Now I’m not sure if I got a lemon but by day two a good amount of the copper finish was gone and I also seemed to have been shorted the extra PTFE pads.

Such a fan I bought three
I love this so much I bought three of them, at three separate times. The first one (black) helped keep my hands busy and ease anxiety when in public. It fits perfectly in my hand and can be somewhat concealed in my pocket. It does make some noise, which could be good or bad, but I think it’s satisfying. You can tell it’s been dropped a good bit on different types of surfaces and although it shows, it’s still in great functioning condition and is still sturdy. My toddlers also love “playing” with it, but of course it’s supervised because everything tries to make its way into their mouths. I seriously love these.
