Ownership verified by DX I think it's an Eastsheen...

Pros: -I think it's an Eastsheen cube. It uses the same color scheme and colors. Magenta.
-It turns very smooth!
-A fun 5x5x5 to use when I get bored. I take like 6 to 7 minutes, so it burns time when I wait in line to pay for my items in the Grocery store, or etc.

Cons: -It's really small, so people with large hands might not like this item. (I have medium hands and I think it's a decent size.)

Other Thoughts: -In about 3 months, it got VERY loose. And I mean REALLY loose. I turned it and it actually started popping. I put the pieces together, so it's fine. However, I turned it once and it exploded in my hands! So yeah, I basically wasted 2 hours just trying to re-assemble the cube. :(

Bottomline: Yeah, maybe I was careless with my cube, but other than that, it's a really fun cube to play with. If you know how to solve a 3x3x3, take the challenge beating the Professor's Cube!

Pros: It is not bulky it is barely larger than a normal cube, it's just a bit heavier, but very easy to carry, even in a quality poche.La assembly makes it relatively easy to make quick combinations, it turns very easily.

Cons: This is not a real Rubik's cube, just a good copie.L alignment of parts is sometimes different from a classic cube and losing time to any property line.

Other Thoughts: The multiply 5x5x5 allows combinations. I have not tried to disassemble.

Bottomline: A must if you have do not have a 5x5x5 Rubik's Professor is present quality and speed cubing is possible.

Pros: The puzzle is cheap, compared to the original brand.
The faces turn quite easily -- the puzzle does not require lubricant.
The puzzle is durable; I have only had a piece pop out once, and it was easy to put back in.
It's small so it's cute.

Cons: Again, it's small, and some people don't like that
And it's very loose -- it turns so easily that you can accidentally turn more than one face.
The puzzle has purple stickers where the orange face would be on an American color scheme.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Basically realize that it's smaller than the original brand. It is a good buy if you want a 5x5 just to play with or own.

Ownership verified by DX Well built, cheap 5x5x5!

Pros: Very, very well-built cube. Stickers are good quality, I was very surprised at how it performed right out of the box. Haven't lubed it yet, I'm going to wear it down a bit before, but I'm sure it's going to get even faster!

Cons: It's too addicting :P. Fun to solve it, and right afterwards solve the 3x3x3... The 3x3x3 looks pathetic after solving this baby.

Other Thoughts: Would be nice if DX provided replacement stickers for this one.

Bottomline: If you are looking for a 5x5x5, BUY THIS ONE. You won't regret it!
