GuHong worth getting? Pros, cons. Troubles?

I don't understand these threads. It's a $12 toy and you're asking us if it's worth getting? My lunch cost more than that.

JUST BUY IT!
 
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.

Huh? Isn't that the one thing that everyone talks about?

The original core sucks and it won't last all the abuse. It's good to change it to an A1 core or C4Y core :D
 
well i thuroughly liked my guhong no real complaints except for the edge pieces sometimes felt a bit sharp xD
i lubed once with maru and hten tried jigaloo ( i liked jigaloo better, dissasemble spray and dry method)

Often finances dictate that we can't buy several cubes at once and that the ones we do buy are worth it. In my case my spouse is not very approving of my hobby and doesn't understand why I would possibly need more than 1 cube. I still get them, but I'm usually scolded afterward. And then I still get them.:D

I will laugh at your Death Certificate.
"Killed from a Rubik's Cube Edge Piece Pop that pierced the heart"
Nah jk, but are they that sharp? Mine don't feel that way.

If you cube for a long time, your thumbs start to hurt.

It doesn't feel painful holding two middle edges.
 
Seriously because 3 guys like anime, it become the hit of our forum? Frankly, I'm sick of seeing anime on SPEEDSOLVING FORUM.

Pokemon is anime too. And the problem I have with the Guhong is that it got confused with another cube when I had someone buy it. Apparently that logo is found on other cubes.

Bummer :(
I heard (by heard, I meant saw) that the LingYun has the logo on the yellow side instead of the traditional white/black side.

Hang in there bro :) Just remember what her tolerances are and either keep your hobbies below that. Or "finesse" around them.;)
 
I don't have one but I think the guhong seems rather fast as Dan Cohen, Faz, etc have used them and they have gotten very fast averages on youtube, using them. However, you could just wait for the lingyun if you want to...

Off-topic: K-on lovers: don't say lazy sucks, pure pure heart is so much better. I really wish someone could transcribe the full version of it so that I can learn it and play it on the piano, my transcribing skills aren't that great atm :(
