Hey guys, my rubiks.com arrived just today and I've been testing it out for you guys to enjoy!

It is a very pretty cube and all the cubie faces are SQUARES.

The cube has decent corner cutting, nowhere near a C4Y cube but nevertheless, it's better than your average storebought. The cube is better set at tighter settings because you'll lose your eye if it's too loose. (pop) ;) The plastic quality feels superb, like It won't break unless I break it deliberately.

THOUGH, there are some issues, the center caps pop often and the lube that comes with it will sting your eye. (don't ask)

The cube comes with two sets of PET stickers with the new logo and a syringe of lube which are nice freebies.

:D:D:D

In conclusion, It's a very good cube as long as you get the center cap problem fixed with some epoxy/super glue!
 
When I used my Rubik's DIY I stuck down the centre caps with blu tack and that worked fine. But now for some reason the whole core is just awful. All the springs are like dying and the screws are all wonky... It's now in pieces in a bag somewhere and I hope never to have to use it again... :(
 
I actually believe the Rubiks.com DIY and the Cube4You cubes are the same. Except the Cube4You cube has improvments. Both slow down over time, and then get horrible, where you don't want to use them.

You think the c4u cube sucks? Its a good cube, nice speed and corner cutting.

I take it that you don't have one. Yes, they do slow down. They're not as good as they are over time compared to when you first get them. I believe it's called deterioration.
 
Well, it probably deteriorates alot less if you treat it better, and like the other guy said maintained well

Try months.
 
Really I Don't waste my time with Rubiks anymore, I had a sort of bad expierence, but it looks like they are finally making a progression into the real world where there are white and black cubes

ok, ive found that i do get a little bit of slowdown, but after i take it completely apart, clean, reset tensions, and lubricate, it goes back to original speed. so if i do this once a week, i should never experience permanent slowdown
 
anywhere from 5-15 minutes a week to do all of that a week to your cube isn't nothing.
If you want it to stay good you'd do it, it doesn't sound like much.

Look at like 4 times a month... maybe...
 
HEy you're from brisbane...im in brisbane as well...i know another cuber ...interested in cube meet up in brisbane?
 
people seems to ignore the tutorials on the forum and just kept on bothering themselves when simply using the search function would solve the problem easily
