I'm looking to finish out the WCA collection, and I want to grab a 6x6, 7x7, and Megaminx. Is the MGC a safe bet or all 3?
 
Thanks, I went with the MGCs and the Dayan. (Free shipping and better discount codes for hitting a price threshold made it worth the extra few dollars)
 
took me like 30 minutes to find this thread but now I found it yahoo

i have like a 25 dollar budget, and idk what to get. I'm thinking of a 5x5 or a 7x7, no way I'm getting a 6x6. i have a 4x4 so I guess i know edge pairing and stuff. not really interested in two by two. probably ordering from thecubicle.

I’d definitely recommend the MGC 5x5. It’s on sale for $19 right now.

What's the best feeling 3x3 under £25 ($30ish)? I want a cube that won't necessarily be my main but for taking out the house or learning algorithms. No cubicle/speedcubeshop pro versions as shipping is more expensive than my house (although I can buy lube)

Edit: Also performance doesn't matter too much as I'm not really going to be speedsolving much on it

I have the Tengyun v2, but not the v1, but I’ve heard the v1 has an amazing feeling, as well as the fact that it’s very quiet, so it wouldn’t bother anybody in public. I personally wouldn’t want to take anything over $10 out of the house, though. I also have the Thunderclap v3 M, which used to be my main, and only costs $10. I personally like the feeling, but a lot of people have said that it feels like a Valk Power, which many people didn’t like. You could also get something really cheap such as the Meilong M or the MS.

of course like any generic person i would say rs3m 2020, but your budget is higher, so that's nice.
def not the QiYi MS, good performance, but really loud and clacky. Tengy v1 is a really good buy, as the quiet feeling is really nice, but don't want to lose it as its a bit expensive. a cube that was popular on release but forgotten was dayan guhong v4, but according to some reviews, the corners scratch the center, but its 15 bucks.
you can get the guhong v3 for 12 bucks, and here is a review by someone that sums it up also 54mm so want to watch out for that:

I am generally not too critical of cubes, but this one came out of the box greasier than a Double Cheese Burger from McDonald's. I immediately took the cube apart and set the cube up myself. This is a smaller cube, with the old school shades, and a glossy finish. It is very soft in turning and very quiet. I bought the cube to play around with when I am watching TV with the family so they don't get anything come my cube and it is working great for that. If you are interested in DaYan's TengYun due to how quiet people say it is, but don't want to pay extra this cube should do the trick if you are willing to use heavier lube.

also off topic but I thought you replied to yourself because you have similar profile pictures 😆
 
I finally have the 4x4- 7x7 YJ MGCs. As I heard the was a really solid line up.
Is there a 2x2 or 3x3 MGC that is as good as the bigger cubes? Or should I just stick with the already known good 2x2s and 3x3s?
