The Wand of Fireballs for example. It requires attunement by a spell caster class.  A cleric wouldn't be able to use it as they don't cast Fireball, it's not on their spell list.  If a DM thinks any spell caster should be able to use the wand, it's their world, let it be so.I like the rules as they are, I think they are in place for balance reasons.  But since in my realm, players aren't going to be buying magic items, hence magic items mean something, I may just go with any Spellcasting class.</blockquote>
