CubeTwist Square-1 SPEEDCUBE

I needed to tighten mine a lot to make them not pop. After that, they're pretty good. I still prefer MF8 because these have way more friction, but most people don't like my square-1s.

The only downside I noticed immediately is that within minutes of playing with the CT Sq-1 I had two edge pieces pop from the same layer. I have never popped my MF8 (not even sure it's possible). But I did another solve without changing anything and had no issues. I guess I had gotten used to being a little rougher with the MF8.

Actually, my MF8 seems to be popping the same way you mentioned increasingly. o.0 Might consider buying this, because I think my MF8 is close to retirement condition.

Got mine yesterday. Like it much better than the MF8. Way smoother feeling on the slice turns and the layer turns. Feels like it has some really great springs in it because it can do some minimal corner cutting, but about as good as corner cutting will get on sq-1's. Overall really smooth and I like it.

Your mf8 is incredibly tight though.

Hah what a coincidence, I ordered one yesterday because I needed a new square-1. I'm glad you guys are saying it's a good sq-1.

is the old (original) cube-21 logoed better?

TAKE OUT ALL THE SPRINGS.

And you have essentially a fully-adjustable MF8.

Just noticed that lightake now got black versions of both the Square-1 and Square-2

i'm getting an mf8 for a friend. Mine's amazing. It sucked out of the box, but 2 squirts of crc killed the friction. In it's 7ish months of use, it has popped only twice. Both times were due to a friend trying to scramble it. Non cubers can't really turn that thing.

Yay mine arrived. Yeah it's pretty awesome. The plastic makes it feel like a type F cube. It's so much nicer than the MF8 one I had, but everyone hates my MF8 square-1 anyway.
