please rate from one to 10, durability, stability and Luckiness. eg. durability will it last for a year and still be awesome, stability: If I drop it will in break (4 feet) locking up etc. and Luckiness: Like If I buy one will there be another one that is far better?

Thanks and I am asking this because I am wondering if it is worth buying 2 square ones and waiting another week.
 
Well I have 4 sq-1's and have used them all a bit.

First there is the orginal sq-1 (I have 2 of theses) I would give it maybe a 7 or so....(something is wrong with both of them though like there is stickey stuff that wont come off the pieces .....) Turning quality does vairy from cube to cube
Pros: Durable
made of hard plastic
adjustable screws
slice turns (R2) can be really fast if you loosen it

Cons: U and D turns are not that fast (might just be the two I have)
Not a BOY color scheme
If you loosen it it will lock and slip a lot

Now on to the Black DIY. I would give the black DIY an 8. This cube is also very durable. Turning quality is the same on each cube
Pros: Very fast U and D turns
reacts well to lube
adjustable screws
If you adjust it right it wont lock nearly as much as the orginals
does not slip
Cheep!
Comes with a BOY color scheme (varies from where you order it)

Cons: Not really to many besides that it will lock

Now on to my final sq-1, the White DIY. I would give this cube a 8.5 - 9. Almost just like the Black DIY. Turning quality is the same
Pros: (everything that I mentioned about the Black DIY)
Rarely locks

Cons: nothing that I can think of right now!

Hope that helps!
