The included magnets don’t stick to the pans, but they included glue dots. This now includes an extra step in the process, which I guess would have been OK if the magnets stuck to the tin, but they’re not strong enough. So it then became another step for me to remove the magnets along with the glue dots. Total pita.

Just be aware that they’re on a sheet you separate and stick on each Pan , I thought they’d be on the pan , but it’s not hard just a step, well worth the cost

First of all, you have forty little plastic tubs, and you have to adhere a magnetic strip to the bottom of each one. Some of the adhesive doesn't really bond with the tubs, and the tubs fall out. Secondly, it is not possible to fit 40 tubs in here. I can only get nine in a row, there is not quite enough room for a 10th tub, so even if you can get all the tubs fitted with magnetic strips there is only room for 36 of them, not 40. I am so sorry that I bought this.

Much more economical than buying half-pans… can be filled from tube watercolors

Not much to say about this other than for the price you really can’t go wrong with this pallet. It has several mixing areas and more areas for paint than you will need.

Its made of very low grade plastic. The lid is bent and it won't close.

This is pretty good product you get a good amount of half pans for the price. That being said if you are buying this product because it comes with self adhesive magnets for the bottom of the half pans, be aware that the adhesive backing on the magnets is not strong enough. I put the magnets on the pans and put them in the two small tins that i had bought to create some small travel palettes, almost immediately the pans kept popping off the magnets. I finally ended up having to attach the magnets with a small drop of superglue. So if you're planning on using the magnets be prepared to use glue in order to permanently attach them.

Although this palette is advertised as portable, I purchased it for home use. The price was right and so was the size. I don't understand however, how you would use this as a portable palette. It doesn't latch closed and the plastic is not as thick or sturdy as you'd want for travelling and portability. It appears a little flimsy but will work fine for at home. It fits my watercolours in nicely and I love the large mixing wells.

Arrived promptly and in good condition. Bag does not need to be cut as it is a well-functioning ziplock. Magnetic squares are easy to adhere, and do allow time for a slight nudge in case the first placement is not well centered or sticks out. They are perfectly sized; again no cutting is necessary except to open that packet. Very convenient to assemble.In terms of use for a DIY palette, I tried three configurations:1. About 14 of these pans fit into a standard Altoids size tin.2. It also held 5 pans plus 3 Da Vinci Casaneo travel brushes, sizes 2, 4, and 6.3. It held 10 pans plus the Da Vinci size 6 travel brush (or of course either of the smaller ones).The Da Vinci size 8 did not fit even by itself, nor did the Escoda Versatil.The magnets held the pans in place even when the tin was held sideways or upside down. Not shown here but i even tried upside down once a few of my pans were filled, with lid shut though, and nothing spilled.4. In the Prima Marketing Tins - I could fit 5 turned sideways, but they would need to be magnetized, into the center row. They were just a tad too long to fit with normal orientation. A better way is to use the old Prima Marketing pans, which are smaller, in the middle row. And combine the Mifuner with Prima Marketing on the two pre-made rows. That will fit more. With that mix, you can get 21 half-pans into the box. if you use 100% Mifuner, you will get 19 pans into that box and need magnetic strip on 5 of them.5. In the Meeden 24 tin, I could get 13 in each pre-made row, and 11 turned sideways in the middle, for a total of 37 half pans using all Mifuner pans.Overall, very pleased with this item.UPDATE: I did get several months of use out of the magnets, but they eventually died and I replaced them with snips from a magnetic roll. Still a good product. They were used in extremely hot and extremely rainy conditions, left sideways and even upside down (by accident) in hot car, etc. So I still consider this a convenient and good product. Bought more, and expect to buy again. Maybe 4.5 stars.

These half pans are whiter and a tad lighter than the normal half pans. Slightly bigger than WNCot half pans, but fit snug in their sketch box palettes. And they are a little smaller than the Jane Davenport half pans. I used these to replace my new pretty excellent watercolor plastic tray because the tray that held the paints cracked on the edges. Works great, magnets are strong enough that if you held your tin upside down it stays, but it’s going to budge if you drop the tin. Overall, serves its purpose, reasonable price. I would purchase again.

While looking around for pans, I had many options at hand, same being better deals but not really a fast arrival or mixed review. At the time of ordering I was looking for a cute tin as well, but then realized I really have enough tins (pencil cases chucked in a desk)I wanted to just have enough pans for my daniel smith paints and I have no intention of swapping the colors out of the pans so I was not really concerned if they stain. I can update later to confirm how badly they stain, or how little they stain. *update* I ended up using an empty pot for some water and also rewet my viridians and the staining is not so bad.The set came in its own resealing plastic product bag which was very sturdy, and the ziplock seal was good. At first I was only intending to use 24 of the pans for my basic favorites. So the bag was nice. Instead I used them all by filling another tin with some gouaches I like, and some student dried tube paint, and some full pans of my ancient remains of a set of kuretake.The pans came clean, nothing needed to be filed down, and no weird shapes. It came with two sheets of stick magnets. Unfortunately, there was one more pan than magnet. BUT there were 52 pans in the 48 set sooooooooo. :D whatever right?The magnets stay on pretty well, and I could remove them if I needed to, like for washing but I am sure one too many times and it would need spray adhesive. Also they stay on the metal tin securely but they move around when pushed. They do not move when you do a back and forth gesture with the pan in your hand. You could work holding the tin or likely walk at a brisk "the bus is coming" pace and they stay put.I would buy more of half pans and full pans. I like that they came in the nice baggy, which has a cute design on it too, so its fairly reusable as is. The price is more than fair, and they shipped out to me much faster than gambling on some other seller deals or paying way too much from a reseller or store.
