Mefferts or V-cube 5x5?

[jcuber]

Better size, turning, corner cutting, general feel, ect.

The V-Cube 5 spins fairly quickly after breaking in, they cut corners very well, they pop rarely, and they aren't huge like the meffert's.

Get both, you only live once.

normally i'd say vcube, but i think for the price, i'd rather get several eastsheens. I really like the smoothness and size of eastsheens, they are cheap, but wear out quickly.

What makes the V-cube better?

It depends, if you have big hands, not trying to speedcube it (especially the 3x3 part) and don´t care about the heaviness or poping, just buy the Mefferts!

mr. cubism genius

my personal preference depends on my mood lol, maybe leaning towards the V-5 only because recognition is easier imo

Please look at the thread date before bumping something like this. I would imagine he made his decision in the last 9 months.

I now own a white QJ 5x5 with tiles, a white V-Cube 5 and two ES 5x5's.

The QJ 5x5 is very heavy and very stiff right out of the box. With lots of solves it does loosen up nicely. Also the QJ 5x5 is large too. It is 7.5cm high.

One feature of the QJ 5x5 is you can turn the second to top layer without having to rotate the top two layers and putting the top layer in its correct position again.

The V-cube 5 is much lighter, a bit smaller (6.5cm high) and in my opinion, superior.

Note: Some people do consider the QJ 4x4 and QJ 5x5 cubes to be KO products. ie QJ = Clefferts = Cloned or KO Mefferts.

:fp fail

QJ is not knockoff of meffert's. it's the exact same cube sold by different people.

actually the QJ 4x4 and 5x5 came out before meffert's started selling them.

I have a v-cube which is great but I still do like my eastsheen coz it doesn't click. (will mod v-cube soon)

v-cube 5 isnt that great, really. Center corners twist, there is a super lock up and center edge pop 9which you have to take out more pieces to fix), stickers trip, and it fells bumpy. Not that great of a cube, and I had it and used it since Christmas.

Its only real advantage is lightweight, size, and corner cutting
