[Help Thread] Puzzle Recommendations

[EngiNerdBrian]

It all boils down to what kind of solves you like. Long solves? Non-cubic? Big cubes? Shape shifting? Speed?

I say pick a style your most interested in doing more and choose the puzzle based off that.

I voted cuboid, 3x3x4 was fun and a classic size, dog ate my old one. I never enjoyed the sounds and feel of gear puzzles.

Which cube out of the GAN X or GAN XS feels most like the GAN I? Does anyone have the three cubes to test it out?

Gan XS

I know, but the little magic I tried at a comp was so sluggish and horrible to use. I mean, I suppose I could buy some dnm with the order. the yufu is out of stock in both stores I believe

For 7x7, I would recommend the X-Man Spark M. It is used by choice by both Feliks and Max, so if you have the budget, I would recommend it.

I have the money, but 7x7 is an event that I won't solve often cos of how long it takes. The general feeling of the puzzle will probably inspire my to solve it more often though, so I think I may go for the Spark.

Aren't 6x6 and 7x7 basically just a bigger 4x4/5x5? Or am I wrong?



I'm not familiar with dragon cubes, what are they?

It's a type of Axis cube.

Personally, I have always bought my puzzles at speedcube.com.au. Free express shipping over $100 and a rewards system. Always great service. I have contemplated buying speedcubes at dailypuzzles but in the past they haven’t had the newest hardware, and have been more expensive. I have recently looked at their site, and it seems they have lots more cubes to offer and looks more professional then before, but I still don’t believe their overall store is better than speedcube.com au. However, it is worth adding because I know plenty of people who shop there .

EDIT: I’ve been trying some of my friends 2x2’s and thought the GAN 251, Dayan Tengyun and WR Weipo were as good as the Valk 2 and I think they’re worth adding, anyone else agree?

Hey The Pocket Cuber,

My names Billy and I am the owner of DailyPuzzles. I appreciate your feedback and that you've checked out our store. We definitely are going to work on getting the latest cubes as soon as possible, but it does depend on many factors and sometimes it does take us a longer than we want to stock new products. We were however the first store to stock the MGC Elite 3x3, MGC 6x6 and Valk Elite so we were really thrilled about that.

As for pricing, generally speaking we always try to make our prices as competitive as possible and will always price match (and usually beat) the price of any direct competitor. We also offer Express shipping on orders over $100AUD and typically always have 10-20% coupons which are permanently active. The higher % coupons do require you to a leave a review of your product, but they are still there to redeem.

In future we hope you will give us a shot, but understand and respect cubers who already have loyalty to their favorite store. If you ever have any questions about an order, stocked products or soon to be released products we are always happy to assist- just contact us at [email protected]

Thankyou again for your feedback
Best Wishes, Billy

Two-month necro into advertising copy. That's a bold combo.

Takes great skill to pull that off without ridicule.

Got the MGC 6x6 and X-man Spark and both are AMAZING! The MGC has a really light glide feeling similar to Moyu big cubes. The Spark has a really nice feeling throughout all the layers; the outers are really nice and crunchy imo

Would anybody like me to post the unfinished spreadsheet? I have all of the cubes' names, and I have some of the links done.

 

[BenChristman1]

Here is the spreadsheet so far. There are tabs at the bottom for extra cubes that don't have links. Let me know if there are any cubes I should add/change. I hope this helps people that are looking for new puzzles!

Perhaps add different cubes to Budget, Great and Expert? Because some people could prefer the Valk 3 Elite over the XS, or the WRM over the XS, so it’s all personal preferences at this point. Just a suggestion.

There are tabs at the bottom to see other cubes that were mentioned in this thread.

That is in the "Other" tab at the bottom.

That is in the "Other" tab at the bottom.

It doesn’t exist

 

[BenChristman1]

It doesn’t exist

Now, you just have to scroll down farther to see all the other cubes. Sorry about that mishap!

 

[PetrusQuber]

Ah yes thank you.

 

[BenChristman1]

Let me know if there are any other problems and if there are any other cubes I should add! If you suggest a cube, please tell me which category you think it should be in.
