I just have been changing the tension of the cube, and in my opinion this setup experience is much worse than the GAN 356x too, I asume that we have been pampered with the easy adjustment of 356x and I recognize that I am not a very handy person but I found this:
- The cube comes with 2 extra set of 7 springs one of the set silver color and the other gold color, to me seems that the installed ones (silver too) are the same as one of the extra set but I might be wrong. Gold ones seem stronger but there is not any information in the package (at least in the English documentation)
- To remove most of the center caps just a nail is not enough as it is very hard, I needed a small flat screwdriver for most of them. In the 356x I do not have any problem with the nail.
- To my sight Just to see the tension position of the nut is a pain as the nut core instead of being solid metal as in 356x is transparent plastic as the nut.
- Changing the tension setting and replacing the spring is a real pain, there is not a tool in the package and twisting the nut cap is really hard.
- Magnets can not be changed, the magnets that come with the cube are weaker than the 356x strong ones, I would say that seems similar to the mediums in 356x.
In my case I needed more than 15 minutes to change all the springs and adjusting the tension, I asume that next time I would not need that much but it is a real pain comparing to 356x.
