Perhaps the least "speed-cube-like" - but that makes it a great transition cube
This review is focused exclusively on the 3x3 cube in the set. I may come back later if I find the others differ.I recently picked up 5 speed cubes (MoYu AoLong Enhanced, QiYi Thunderclap, D-FantiX YongJun (YJ) GuanLong, D-Fantix Cyclone, and this MOFANG set) I expected some to be good and some bad, but when compared to ordinary cubes, they're all very good.If you are an expert, well... you're already going to know what you like and dislike, and will need to try many cubes. I'll describe it below, but you'll need expert opinions. For anyone less than an aspiring expert - especially for those coming from "ordinary" cubes - this is a perfectly reasonable entry-level choice. I don't see 3x3 in this series on Amazon available as individual cube right now - so it may not be the right choice if you don't want the whole set.This one is about average at 86 grams. It's also average in terms of equal rotation resistance across the faces - could use a bit of adjustment. That rotation resistance is higher than average among these speed cubes. While this one allows for "cutting corners," it has less play in it than most of the others. Either this or the Cyclone would be the easiest-to-adapt-to choices among these speed cubes. I find this one "closest" to a lubed and perhaps tension-adjusted traditional cube while still being a speed cube. Those already adapted to speed cubes should probably look elsewhere. Those looking to transition have an excellent starter cube option here.The feeling of quality is reasonable. If you want a set, then the characteristics above plus the low price for the set makes this a great choice for transitioning to speed cubes.

Smooth! Just try not to drop it on the floor
Very smooth and remains so after 3 months! Comes with instructions, if you read Chinese (you can guess what the pictures say though).It could break apart if you drop it onto the floor from about 3 feet. The color panels would come off and you must be very careful to put them back in the right place (for example, not duplicating corner pieces). Otherwise you'll have to drop it on the floor repeatedly until your mistaken panels come off, and trust me it's no fun. It could get frustrating so better be careful not to drop it on the floor.

Absolutely awful!
I bought these cubes thinking they were a absolute steel but found myself very disappointed. the 3 by 3 is no good at all it pops and or locks up on every single solve. the 2 by 2 was also not so great because the quality of the puzzle was no good as it also locks up an about every solve. However the 4 by 4 and 5 by five pleased me very much. If you are a beginner I suggest buying a 2 by 2, 3 by 3, and 4 by 4 separately even if it takes a little longer for you to save up the money. If you do do this I also suggest buying a good 3 by 3 and a non Rubicks brand 4 by 4 first then a 2 by 2 then 5 by 5.

They're cool for knock offs
They're cool for knock offs. Don't drop them. My five year old dropped the 3x on the kitchen floor right off and about 10 squares popped off.They're great, really, I'd just be more stoked if my kids didn't have the attention span of house flies. Should have watched the YouTube tutorials to see if we'd even be able to wrap our heads around it first. Maybe I just don't have the attention span either.My bad.

Smooth & Decorative
The cubes function smoothly. It's easy to twist the sides and they stay in place once there.The stands hold them perfectly, just as pictured. They make a nice decoration.These have been fun to solve and I am very satisfied with this purchase.

The set is packaged very nicely. They are quite slick
The set is packaged very nicely. They are quite slick. These were for my son and he enjoys them. He dropped the 3X3 a couple of times and in the end it broke.He also indicated that though it is written speed cube...it isn't. It is a very smooth cube, but not a speed cube - if that is important to you.otherwise, no complaints whatsoever. Just dont drop the cube solidly and expect that plastic will be indestructible.

Enjoyable cube puzzles
These ended up being much better than I thought they would be, they are light move very easily, so long as you don't go crazy with them I feel like they will hold up just fine. I am not skilled with these but I enjoy messing around with them nonetheless.

If I could give this product a lower review I ...
If I could give this product a lower review I would. My son had wanted these for awhile but I made him save his own money. Within 8 hours of their arrival all 4 cubes had disintegrated. I have never seen anything so cheaply made. I didn't expect a whole lot for the price but what we got was just ridiculous. Avoid this product unless it's just for display. I reimbursed my son by the way.
