Toys and Games Reviews of Rubik's Cube
Customer Review: Retro toy
Summary: 5 Stars
If you want a good old fashioned rubiks cube, this is perfect. It works well, is durable and the price is right. My 4 year old wanted it because he saw one at his older cousin's. I first overpaid for one at a retail store, not realizing it didn't turn like the traditional rubiks cube. It was electronic and made a bunch of noises. I can't figure out how to use it, let alone a child. I then found this on Amazon and it was just what I needed. My child doesn't yet understand the concept of it, but he has fun with it and hasn't harmed it in any way.Customer Review: Rubik's Cube-Only the REAL THING will do.
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally purchased an imitation cube (did not realize Amazon sold it). The imitation was cheaply made, smaller than normal, did not turn and fell apart in a matter of days.
The Rubiks Cube purchased from Amazon was/is terrific. It cost as much as the cheap imitation I bought on E-bay (that was shipped from China,) thus taking 3-4 WEEKS to get here. If you want a quality item, I have found Amazon to offer exceptional products and service, both on this purchase and all the other purchases made over the years.

What a super-cheap rip-off of the original Rubik's Cube that was introduced to us in the mid-'70's. Seems like every doctor's office, break room,friend's basement,etc. had one of these cubes to kill time with. Main reason that I, personally didn't like this modern version was that after the first day or two, the colored stickers start to peel off. The Rubik's Cube HAD it's day. In this high-tech age, I cannot see many kids having any interest in this item. They might actually have to 'use' their brain. PLEASE don't bring back the Pet Rock.Customer Review: Deserves ZERO Stars...

I've gotten better quality Rubik's cubes for free from IT conventions. Shame on Rubik's for endorsing such a horrible piece of crap. Just feeling the cube (even if you haven't touched one for 20 years) you'll realize how cheap/light this thing actually is. After repeated use, the stickers begin to curl up. With even more use, the cubes begin to loosen up & eventually break away. I guess they realized that the older cubes were too well made & defied the rules for the standards of economics.
You've been forewarned...
Customer Review: Chinese-made Piece of Junk Not Half as Strong as Original
Summary: 1 Stars
We bought one of these for our son and as soon as he took it out of the package, it dropped from about 2 feet and broke into pieces. I tried to superglue it back together with no luck. This thing is junk. I remember the ones I played with as a kid were nearly indestructable... in fact my grandparents still have one from when their kids were young (albeit the stickers are no longer stuck on), but it used to be made durable. I hope there is a "premium" version available somewhere that is made half-way decent.
