What is your favorite 3x3, and what are the pros and cons? Looking to get a nice one, but I am absolutely clueless 
Edit -
So far I think I like the Gan 356 V2 the best. Thoughts?

The top 3 cubes on the market right now are the Valk 3, GTS2M or one of the Gans cubes.What is your favorite 3x3, and what are the pros and cons? Looking to get a nice one, but I am absolutely clueless

I personally use the Valk 3 and I have made mine magnetic with N35's.
I am an amateur cuber. I was given the choice to buy two 2x2s and a bottle of lube.
For 2x2s I have to chose between the following: 1.Cyclone Boys 2x2 2.Type C Wittwo 2x2(V1).
3.Qiyi Qidi S 2x2
For lube, I honestly didn't know what to get. Any Suggestions? Thanks!!

I have the cyclone boys 2x2 and it catches and locks up lot.
As far as lube goes, lubicle one, silk or dnm 37 would be good.

Hello,
I want to learn Skewb, but first I need to buy one. I was wondering what the Cheapest but best Skewb is for a beginner?
Thanks!

The cubing class room Skewb is good! If you get it you should slow it down with a heavier lube because it's fast.

How much are you willing to spend for a 2x2?

The Cubing Classroom (Mofang Jiaoshi) skewb is $6 from Cube Depot. The Moyu Magnetic is $11 from Cube Depot. Both have a lot of positive reviews.

I've been kind of out of the loop for the past 2 years but am recently getting back into cubing.
I'd like to upgrade to a magnetic cube but I use Roux which contains a lot of M-slices where you're dealing with twice as much magnetic force compared to side turns, is this an issue? Would any of the three main options (GTS2-M, Air UM, Valk M) be a better choice? I have not used any of these in their non-magnetic versions, but I have tried a GTS2-M and liked it. I know the Valk M is advertised as having somewhat weaker magnets, not sure about the GTS2-M vs. Air UM magnet strengths. I'm not a high speed solver and probably a bit sloppy with my turning, but I do appreciate a really nice feeling cube. Cost is not a factor.
The different spring options in the Air UM is interesting but I'm uncertain how this differs from adjusting tension screws. Basically, if this helps guaranteed that I'll find a setup I really love then it's attractive, otherwise it may just be extra cost for little added value since I'm not a pro.
Thanks!

The Gans 356 Air UM's middle slices feel really nice. Pretty much like the outer layers.
