Magnets are strong enough to ensure placement of straps but mild enough that releasing is not a struggle. I was worried that the pins would come undonee either just by loosening themselves or by the hands of a crafty child leaving a sharp pin object or small backing piece ny child could harm thenselves with but neither has been the case and my child does enjoy playing with them when riding in the car. My carseat has the slots to hang straps in but it requirea the loosening and tightning of the straps to use them and these magnets allow me to get straps out of the way without that magic 3rd arm that would be needed to loosen straps otherwise. Very pleased with the product in every aspect of why I purchased it.
