So, although I didn't buy this cube from SCS, I have owned it for a good 3-4 years. This cube was my first speedcube and was good for me when I started out. Fast turning, light feel, and overall performance was great (way better than my Rubik's). 3-4 years later, though a bit beat up, I still use this cube as it still works (surprisingly) and gives a nostalgic feel. I'll recommend this cube for anyone looking for a cheap GAN, but definitely, if you have the dedication and money, try looking for a better one.
