Our Promise to You
All of our products are guaranteed to be free of defects, or we will replace and reship at no cost to you. Please contact us within 4 weeks (28 days) past the delivery date to report any issues with items you have purchased.
Please note that some new cubes when being used for the first few times may experience what is termed a "pop". This is when one or more parts of a puzzle pop out without any damage actually being done to any of the pieces. This also occurs from time to time during normal usage. Pops are typically not considered a defect if the parts which come off can be reassembled by hand.
The corners on 2x2 puzzles should not be twisted as doing so may snap the piece. Damage caused by corner twisting is not considered to be a defect.

Customer Reviews
I love it it turns with such precision it is impossible to put down
Yes, this is a good cube, without question. This cube can flow beautifully, emphasis on can. For me, corner twists seem abundant, which really messes up my solve flow. I've also had 3 pops using this cube, tightening has helped somewhat, but I've still had these issues. This is probably the favorite 2x2 I have, but the twist/pop issues could keep it from being used in competition for me. It is a really fast cube with excellent corner cutting. I have adjusted to the new magnetic system, but I do find myself periodically missing the conventional magnetization style. So yes, I would recommend it, but there is a few reliability issues.
Bought one for my son and one for myself. Me myself am slow due to geriatrics, however Son aced a PB within three turns out of the box (2.1 sec), and his mates were equally enthousiastic. He ' mained it ' straight away and has been improving his times significantly. Comes highly recommended.
I first noticed that the cube felt dry and fast, but still very controllable. Corner cutting is phenomenal. It corner cuts literally anywhere on stock tensions. I did notice some spring noise and I am fine with it but you might not be. To fix this just put something like lubicle black or weight 5 under the screw head on all 6 sides. Over all this will 100% be my main. Did I mention that mind is not broken in. Yes every good thing I just said is true the this cube before break in. Cubes tend to get better after break in so this cube is probably like the best 2x2 on the market. I have also tried the stock mgc elite and it got slow pretty fast but sped up after lots of fast lube like DNM 37 and then lots of break in. Over all this cube is way better then the stock mgc elite, and is totally worth the extra 10 dollars.
cool
It's very good right out if the box bur becomes even better when it's broken it. Just be cautious of corner twists!
Angstrom MGC2 Elite 2x2
I have got so many pops with this cube, I tried to put the cube back together but one of the peices just broke so not only is the cube popped it is also unusable.
Thanks for your review, and I am sorry to hear about your cube! We set out puzzles up with what we consider to be neutral tensions, but certain turning styles may require you to loosen or tighten the cube to suit you. That being said, if you email us with your order number, we can send you a quote for a replacement piece.

Great 2x2 overall, it looks scary if you loosen it a lot but all you have to worry about is corner twisting, also it’s normal for angstrom but it is a little bit hard to turn before breaking in
I purchased this 2x2 with the intention of it being my backup main to my Angstrom Valk 2 M, however it quickly became my main. It is very fast and light with a good magnetic strength. It dropped my average of 1000 from 4.16 to 3.76 in just a few days of using it. Overall, it's a great cube and I thoroughly enjoy solving on it.
