FZ Stealth has changed the game for the handful of cubes I've put it in. It made them feel smoother and even quieter than they were. Will definitely have to get more in the future.

I was a bit weary about purchasing a pre-lubed cube as I generally like my own settings, but I was very curious how the pros set their cubes up so I chose this cube to check it out… I was extremely pleased when I did first turns. A tiny bit less tension made it perfect for me. The matte plastic feels surprisingly good. After a few solves to distribute the lube throughout the cube, this cube performed flawlessly. Speaking of lube, I wrongly thought it would be over-lubed out of the box (not sure why I thought that - maybe because lubes in a lightly lubed cube wouldn’t last as long?). Anyways, it was lubed perfectly. As I am a light and pretty accurate turner, I like my cubes fast and loose and I appreciate the speed of this cube. I am not regretting this purchase at all. As a matter of fact. I will main this one. Highly recommended. Well done Cubehead! Happy cubing!

Haven't cubed in a few years at this point so I picked this one up after randomly coming across the Youtube video. Out of the box it was on the loosest elasticity/tension settings and it was very fast. I set the cube up with angstrom gravitas on the tracks, and dignitas/fz calm on the pieces. Not really sure how to lube the core on this as I'm unfamiliar with the design. I changed the settings to 4-4 as Phil said in the video that the best settings are towards the middle and you can change them to your preferences from there. I ended up with 6 on elasticity and kept the 4 tensioning.

After breaking in for some time I enjoy the cube a lot. It's much faster and lighter than my previous cubes so I have to turn lighter with it but it's fun to use.

I'm just a mom who loves cubing but doesn't actually compete so it does not matter to me that this cube isn't WCA legal. It is a REALLY COOL cube! Even though it is not the "top" version of the GAN anniversary cubes with all the bells and whistles, it still feels GREAT! It is fast and light and I've already had one of my best solves with it after just a few tries so I can safely say that I didn't have any issues with the transparent colors slowing me down. This is my first GAN cube and I couldn't be happier with my purchase!

It's very fast and smoth out of the box. I've only done a "mini session" with this cube and I've already broken my PB!! Love this cube so far!

It's one of my favorite puzzles now. There's a new parity issue that can occur that doesn't exist on a 4x4 cube or master pyraminx, but it's pretty easy to prevent once you understand how it happens. Made for a lovely challenge to first time solve with no help. If you can do a Jing pyraminx and 4x4 cube, it's a fun puzzle. Only complaint is the turning quality. It's a lot tighter than it's 5 layer counterpart and I can't figure out how to access the screws on it.

This was my first order from TheCubicle. Happy to say that my order was in perfect condition. The timer works well and the mat looks really nice. The gear bag also fits a lot of my cubes. Will order from here again!

This cube is surprisingly affordable while being able to keep up or surpass much more expensive cubes from competitors like Gan, Moyu, etc. While it does need some setting up, you can immediately understand its potential straight out of the box. Some may overlook this cube for not being as customizable as other cubes, but I think that's a strength rather than a weakness. It has sufficient customization options without being overwhelming. Also, being a budget cube, it is likely to be purchased by beginner/intermediate solvers who benefit from more straightforward customization options. Finally, I can't express enough how satisfying this cube is to turn and solve, it's really something special. I purchased 2 of the 54mm versions for my younger kids (for their smaller hands), but now I think I may have to get another one for myself! Dayan really outdid themselves with this one, and the addition of different sizes means it's a good choice for everyone - kids, adults, OH solvers, etc.

Honestly I have a fondness for easier non WCA puzzles. You don’t need a walkthrough, you can just explore the mechanics on your own and discover what the puzzle can do.

This is a good example of that. Basically, this is like the coin pyraminx but with a full pyraminx edge set along with it. It’s well made and pleasant to move with. The colors are well chosen, so it’s nice to make patterns with.

I don’t see myself spending a huge amount of time with it in the future — it’s a simple puzzle — but it’s inexpensive and was a nice solve. I’m definitely glad I got it and would recommend it to other burgeoning collectors.

I've seen many reviews of this puzzle and waited with high anticipation for mine to arrive. I know that many other reviewers have said the tension needs to be slightly adjusted out of the box, and that the puzzle has popping problems due to the design of the internals. I have not had any of those issues myself. For me, the puzzle felt great right out of the box and it has not popped even once. On the other hand, I am not a particularly fast solver or fast/aggressive turner. If I had faster turning or relied on more finger tricks for FTO, it's quite possible I would have encountered these problems. But if you're still kinda slow like me, this puzzle will probably serve you absolutely as well as you need. The only thing stopping me from giving it the full five stars is that a) the gray side color is kind of an ugly, brownish gray. I've gotten used to it, but I wish it was a more neutral gray or even black. b) the issues with the design of the puzzle's internals are real--even if they haven't affected me personally--so I know there's room for Diansheng to improve. I look forward to them doing so!

But all that aside: if "I'm waiting for better hardware" has been your reason for not getting into FTO up to now, you need wait no further. We have been waiting for a speedsolving FTO for *years*, and Diansheng delivered. More than that; they didn't just deliver a puzzle that is speed-solvable. They delivered a speedsolvable puzzle that is actually *good*. It may not be at the same level of awesome/fast/reliable as modern 3x3 hardware (yet!) but this is a 100% legit puzzle that brings a true speedsolving experience to FTO.

I'm prefacing this by saying that you're not buying this for speed. You're buying it for the novelty, and novel it is.

It is, of course, a basic speedcube underneath, so it is entirely speedsolveable if you feel like it. It turns as well as a Yulong or Meilong, and that's all it needs to be. Magnets are relatively medium and are tactile.

The pieces are not thin, but the colored tiles are, which allows the light to shine through. It looks fantastic. The light has a bluish hue, but it doesn't mess with the colors when it's on. It's a great desk piece, and it's entirely solvable in the dark. And for less than $20? I love it.

Really easy to install. Great add to the cube and it was fun to do. I also got to learn about the inner workings of a cube. I also added the MAGLEV. FUN PROJECT.

I bought Gan 14 for my son and got to tour the warehouse. Jesse was amazing guiding my son with care and patience. We cannot wait until we visit them again. Gan 14 is one of his many collections but truly has become his favorite

I give away a lot of cubes at competitions. To kids who have a main, but not a backup cube. To moms and dads who are interested in learning. And I always give away this particular cube because it's inexpensive enough that I can do this without it costing me too much, and because for the price it's actually a pretty nice cube. It turns just fine, and is magnetic. I would expect anybody who gets serious to upgrade to something better, of course, but as an entry-level option it's hard to beat. Also: if you do multiblind and need your cubes to all feel the same, this cube has the performance to handle blind solving without any problems, and is cheap enough that you can get however many you need without breaking the bank.

I'm going to start out by saying that this cube is polarizing. Not in a good or bad way, but it's extremely weird. ShengShou making a flagship? Weird. ShengShou making a cube with three separate magnet systems? Even weirder. And all that for $20 USD? I'm perplexed.

Unboxing is a pleasant experience. The box is nice, but there's a lot of foam in there (ever since MoYu boxes became super efficient, everything else seems wasteful) and it's a nice presentation. The accessories box comes with extra screws and springs, extra compression rings, and extra spring housing thingamabobs (they help with spring noise) and a very nice all-metal screwdriver. But that isn't why you buy the cube.

Let's start off with the features.
Dual-adjustment system similar to what MoYu uses, but no tool needed for compression. Standard spring, no maglev here
Corner-to-edge magnets
Corner-to-edge FEET magnets
Corner-to-core magnets

The design is a simple split-piece with primary tracks/feet for the edges and corners, respectively, and the center pieces are primary. On the edges, there is a bit of a strange jagged lip where the 2 body pieces meet, but it's not too big of an issue unless you look really closely. It only comes in stickerless, but the shades are nice and bright, comparable to QiYi shades, and it's so glossy that you could mistake it for UV coating.

Performance is decent. It doesn't cut everywhere, but the core magnet system makes it so that you don't need to corner cut very much even on difficult algs (for example, the Gc perm I use needs some weird finger tricks but they all work for me). It's very flexible and the springs are a tad weak, so I keep the cube on the highest compression setting. From the factory, it is a bit tight, so I recommend loosening the screws just a bit when coming out of the box.

Now for the feel. Oh boy. It's one of the strangest feeling cubes you will ever turn, and I guarantee it. A combination of the light springs, the feet magnets repelling at 45 degrees, the corner-core magnets being relatively strong, and the cube being decently fast means that it does not stabilize at all in between turns. It will either align or just not turn at all. The cube has a feel not unlike the GAN 12, where everything feels quite airy and the auto-align takes over a lot. The cube is a bit loud and has a low-pitched, hollow sound that sounds a bit cheap, but I personally enjoy it. It's light and airy, with very little friction, and has a slightly crunchy feel reminiscent of the newer GAN cubes, once again, but it's also not very tactile, like a Tornado V3. What is this thing?

Would I main it? No. But would other people main it? Absolutely. This is such a fun and wild cube that people who don't have GAN money but want GAN auto-align would be all over this thing. After a couple hundred solves, I got my normal times though they were ever-so-slightly inconsistent. I would absolutely recommend this thing for someone who wants to try something new.
