Jonard MP-700 Magnetic Cable Retrieval System

The Jonard MP-700 Magnetic Cable Retrieval System is a useful tool for specific tasks, but it has as many problems as benefits. Although the magnets are powerful, they could be difficult to store without hurting other tools or damaging themselves. The product is extremely overpriced for what it is, and the Jonard branded product does not include the instructional DVD as advertised. Customers suggest searching Amazon for Magnapull instead as they are made by the same company and save $25-50. The system has performed well for its intended purpose, but it is easy to get hung up in enclosed spaces with metal studs, ductwork, or joist hangers. The included chain is too short to be useful, and customers recommend using wire pull string/rope or their own fish tape or rods. One customer found the tool to be overpriced junk, while another found that it worked well pulling A/V cabling through walls with insulation.
