I'm surprised that no one ever created a thread for the Aoshi here yet. Plenty of comments in the Hardware section, but none here.

Thoughts on the puzzle: Holy terrible-out-of-the-box, Batman. Firstly, take this sucker apart and wipe that stock lube off. You will not regret it. Yes, yes, I know that it's a pain in the posterior but just do yourself a favor and do it.
Afterwards, about 30-40 solves in, the cube begins to come together. I have no experience with SS 6x6s, so I cannot compare them based on personal experience. But the Aoshi is a very mushy cube. Layers move about and makes lockups happen far more often than they should. Cleaner turning and a solid grip will help, but my turning is still trying to get used to it.
Based on what others say about the SS 6x6, just get the Shengshou. You have to take this thing apart too if you want any decent performance out of it. Apparently, SS springs work well in the Aoshi so if you still got your SS springs lying around from a previous mod, use 'em in this thing and you'll apparently be sitting pretty.
That's really all I can say. Thanks and get to reviewing!
