Per -- have you had other 4x4's before? I assume you have since you are not a newbie like me -.-.. even if you only have an eastsheen, surely you've used the rubik's one. How do you like the Eastsheen cube? I have used hte Rubik.com 5x5 cubes and it (admittedly) doesn't get as smooth as the Eastsheen one, but it seemed to never really lock up. I am aware that the 4x4 and 5x5 are different, but I assume the rubik's.com 4x4 is similar to the 5x5. Bottom line: Eastsheen has made a very bad first impression on me, and I just want some reassurance that I have a quality cube which isn't going to break quickly or slow me down -.- Thanks! david
