Zuru/antsy labs 34551 Retro Original Fidget Cube

The best fidget cube out there, it's going strong and has a great build quality. I thought it would be a bit gimmicky but after a month I probably use it more than even when I first got it. For comparison I initially brought a cheap knockoff which only lasted a few days before breaking. So don't waste money on cheap chinese knockoffs get this one.

I almost backed this on Kickstarter. I’ve thought about buying one a few times, but couldn’t find a UK seller, and shipping was prohibitively expensive. I was pleased when I saw this for sale here, as I’ve now wanted one for a while. Given the price, the quality is really a massive let-down. Although the cube feels solid and has a decent enough weight to it, the movement of the parts (the reason you buy it)makes it feel really cheap. Taking each part in turn: the five buttons feel fine, and I like that three audibly click while two silently ‘squidge’; the rotating wheel is fine, but rotates a little too easily; the rollerball is fine but the three combi-lock-style wheels rotate far too easily, there’s very little resistance, so rotating them is entirely unsatisfying; likewise, the rocker switch offer so little resistance, it’s not remotely satisfying to click back and fore; worst of all, the joystick is a travesty. It has too much give at the centre, and once again there is so little resistance, it’s not remotely satisfying to manoeuvre. I am so, so disappointed with this. It’s not the satisfying little gizmo you hoped for, and it’s certainly not worth anything like the asking price. A real shame.

If this was just a little bit bigger - maybe half as big again it would be perfect, as it is it will fit in the mouth and although it's too big to be a choking hazard it's not ideal. Other than that it's a lovely little gadget to fiddle with although it could have a few more sound effects to make it really compelling.

Great quality, exactly what I expected. Not a fake from what I can tell, which is great as I wanted the real version.

ABSOLUTELY CRAP, everyone elses reviews say high quality but when it arrived the thumb stick made an awful noise, one of the gears are loose, the ball isn't black and there is a china stamp on it THESE WERE NOT SHOWN IN THE IMAGE!!

Great fidget cube... was annoyed at cheap knock-offs before, but this is the real deal. Worth the money!

Better than expected, really relaxing. Very pleased with is purchase.

This ISN’T the real antsy labs fidget cube. It’s a knock off that has similar box as the original full of “CHINA” stamps. Apart from that not only I received a fake one but I also got it in white with pink colour instead of Retro! Also it costs 15-20£ (depends on the colour) to buy a knock off? Really? If only I could give 0stars.
