Performs excellent, when it performs at all. [Posted on 2007-09-06]
- When I first received my Magnet, it was easy to unpack and set up. I charged that battery, installed the propane and fired it up! WOW! It works! Mosquitos were flocking to it!
First tank lasted a few weeks. Second propane tank installed.
- What? Ran for two days then stopped. OK, instructions say "Reset" the valve/system. Done. Ran 1 day. Reset again. Ran 2 days.
Well, let me pull taht tank and put it on my grill to see if the tank is bad. Grill works fine. Tank must be fine. I'll get a new tank anyway.
- New tank installed. Reset system again just for good measure. Ran for 2 days. 2 more days. 1 day. Etc.
- Called an acquiantance who has two of these units. He initially told me about them. Turns out, he's been haggling with the manufacturer because one of his Liberty units is doing the exact same thing!
I can't recommend or not recommend a Magnet, but I can say that when they work, there is nothing better! Mosquito problems disappear. I guess we're always trading one set of problems for another.
piece of junk [Posted on 2007-11-04]
It works great for the first season but then as all the others have said, it won't work without sending it in for expensive repairs. Don't be ripped off!
Start Early, This Thing Really Works [Posted on 2007-12-19]
I've had it for a few years now. Still runs fine. We follow the directions and clear out the valve, etc. Works best if you start it up before the mosquitoes have time to get breeding... for us that's generally around April. Well worth the gas tanks we fill. Found that dropping a sweaty shirt (after a good run) next to the Magnet is as good if not better than using the Lurex. It was pricey, but I'm a mosquito magnet myself and this brings a great deal of relief. Place it away from where you'll be though as the mosquitoes will build a pattern of heading towards the Magnet.

Worst Purchase I ever made.. [Posted on 2008-07-04]
The product worked just ok for about a year with the head being replaced after the first couple of months, now I am spending more money just to try to keep it running. The unit stops after running for a day, I have replaced the battery twice, gone through two packs of cartidges and still have the same issue. The mfg. told me most folks run fine and there is nothing wrong with these, yet when I called my local MM repair shop, they told me they would add me to their 3+ page waiting list and can't promise they can even get to me this summer. This is no doubt one of the worst purchases I have ever made.. HIGHLY NOT reccomended..
Use something like a can of yard guard a day, will be much cheaper and probably work better.
