    As for the original post, it is one of the heavier cubes compared to FII and A5. It also doesn't respond well to corner cutting abuse (from what I've heard). However, it is certainly a great cube. I find it makes a very good one hand cube.

    Pros - It cuts corners.
    Spoiler:
    TBH that's all I found good with it. I don't like how it feels etc.

    Cons - Its a pain to assemble.

    It's my favorite cube. It's amazing corner cutting lets you do moves that you can't really do on a lot of other cubes. M slices are AWESOME on it.
    Whenever I use other cubes now, I'm constantly locking up or over/under-turning.

    I like it. But I love ridiculously fast cubes, because apparently all my cubes are really loose. Watch out though, because it can screw up your turning style once you become dependent on the reverse corner cutting and such.

    I don't like assembling cubes. Is that so hard to understand? I don't even like setting tension. That's how lazy I am.

    I hate anime references. How is that even relevant to the topic? I made my points that I thought were the pros and cons of the GuHong.
