Welcome to Pinnovators!

Buy her this and thank me later!

Buy her a Bagnet and tell her you found it while you were shopping for a headphone kit so you could play pinball and not disturb her! Let her know you are always thinking of her and trying to make her life more comfortable 😉

She won't believe you, so this post is your proof!  She'll also be very, very happy!

Anyway, in May of 2017 I was first introduced to the Bagnet.  I'm pretty sure it showed up on my Facebook feed.  It seemed cool.  I read about it, checked out their site and emailed myself the link to it with this note

"Wow! I need this!!!  Wish I had thought of it 😞"

I did not purchase it back then.  They sure are on to a great idea.  Since I first discovered Bagnet two years ago they seem to have exploded like wildfire and there are many many more styles.

I finally got around to ordering mine earlier this month.  I bought two styles of the luxury leather, Alexis and Emma.  They arrived last week.  I was excited and hopeful but not holding my hopes up that it would work for my bag as I have a heavy one.  In fact I just went and grabbed it to weigh it, it's over 5 lbs! 

The Bagnet quality is top notch!  Both the leather and the metal ring are very nice quality and are sure to hold up for quite some time.

I am so excited that it worked and am enjoying mine.  I hope if you buy one for yourself or your significant other and that they enjoy it too.

I'll give you the five w's on the product...

Who can use this?  It's for anyone who carries a handbag, diaper bag, backpack, etc.  For that matter, what about portable oxygen tanks. Attach one to the reusable water bottle you take to the gym and attach it to the equipment rather than putting it on the floor while you workout.  I'm sure there are other uses.

What is it?  It is a strong magnet encased in either leather, silicone or vinyl with a ring attached.   It's super strong!

Where will it be used?  Bathrooms, sporting events, restaurants, work, the gym.

My main purpose and probably for most women is when we are out and about and go to the ladies room. I can't tell you how many times there is no hook and I have to figure out what to do with my bag because I am sure as heck not putting it on the restroom floor!  When I had little ones who needed help when we went to the public restroom it was always interesting trying to help them and balance my bag so I didn't have to put it on the disgusting floor in public restrooms. I bet that is something, as a guy, that never occurred to you.  Mark said as much to me when I told him about it.

Since I knew I was going to write this blog post I went around the house with mine and checked out what it would attach to. 

Pinball machine - You bet!  Now you can take her out and get her to play pinball and you won't have to hold her bag!  Mark is never thrilled when I ask him to hold my bag. She can just attach it to the pin.  It won't mar the machine either. 

Door hinge? Yes!

Metal on my bookcase?  Yes!

Sliding glass door frame?  Yes!

Car?  Yes!

Door (metal of course)?  Yes!

Metal cabinet in our garage?  Yes!

When does it get used?  This was pretty much answered on the where.  But basically when one goes out.  You place it on the bag and then forget about it until you need it.  Perfect!

Why should I buy one?  Because you are great and ever so thoughtful!  To confirm to her how you are always thinking about how to make her life easier, even when you are pinball mod shopping :)

How can you get one?  First off, I do not make a cent by recommending Bagnet, but I sure do want to get the word out on this.  If Bagnet ever allows them to be sold by others online I will be adding them but as of now, they do not.  This is just me helping you buy something great and inexpensive for your wife, girlfriend or significant other.

  • Here is a link to their website Bagnet
  • Currently, on their website, I see Vinyl Pop (cutesy ones), Luxury Bagnets, Leather Bagnets, Bagnet Sport, Vinyl Pop Mini and finally Bagnet Mini.  Within each of these categories, there are many to choose from.  The price range is $17.99 - $29.99.  As of this writing they are 25% off on their website.
Safety - According to their website Bagnet will not damage cell phones, laptops, iPads, or other tech devices.  Bagnet will not damage credit cards and are safe for use on the exterior or interior of a purse. In addition, according to their website, Bagnet should not be used by or near persons with pacemakers.

 

My Recommendations - If you don't want to have to sift through all the options at their site here are my recommendations for you...
  • If she appreciates quality, finer things and has a big bag, go for the Kacey - the color goes with just about anything and holds 8-10 lbs.
  • For someone sporty or athletic go for a Bagnet Sport it holds 8-10 lbs.
  • Artsy or whimsical - go for one of the Bagnet Vinyl Pops it holds up to 8 lbs.  For smaller bags go for the Vinyl Pop Minis, they hold 3-4 lbs.

Video - Checkout this video segment from Rachel Ray where they talk about the Bagnet.

As anyone in the pinball world knows, the majority of pinball enthusiasts are male.  For those of you reading this that aren't, buy one for yourself.  You need one!  You won't regret it.

Thanks for reading! Now go play a game of pinball!  I think I might too. 😀
