I wasn’t sure what to expect from such a budget cube, but it’s pretty good! It’s noticeable that the materials are cheap, but the movement is quality and for that I’m more than willing to overlook the feel of the plastic. Love this as budget option, and highly recommend the lubrication service

I thought this cube was going to be wonderful with all the reviews talking about how good it was. NOOO! It is pretty terrible. You can't corner cut more than 30 degrees without using a substantial amount of force, and it doesn't change either when you tighten/loosen the tensions. It also has a scratchy feeling, similar to the Fangshi Shuangren V2. I don't recommend this for beginners. You should stick with a QiYi Sail or a Mofang Jiaoshi MF3RS

Bought it as a gift. Deciding to buy more for myself. For the under $5 price tag, I don't think you can get much better. Plastic sounds hollow and cheaper. But I love the feel. I don't know too many other items under $5 that have this kind of value. Maybe coffee.

Turning feels nice. Corner cutting is a bit hit or miss, same goes for popping. But hey, it's a $4 cube, you get what you pay for. Overall superb and would definitely recommend for beginners.

I got what I expected to see.Thanks

It turns very nice and I got good times on it good for its price

If set up well, lubricated, and even magnetized, the turning on this cube is good enough to make for a performance cube on a tight budget.

That said, this is not a performance cube. I bought 6 of these on special for a great deal and peeled off stickers in a variety of ways for use in teaching my kids specific steps of CFOP and Roux.

Don't expect this cube to be the best cube, it isn't. It works. It's cheap. It's sturdy.

I really like this cube: it's smooth and cuts corners. For the price, absolutely worth it.

I bought 2 of these,(from the cubicle because I didn't know about this site) both in stickerless, and they were amazing for their price. They corner cut amazing, and with lube, are awesome.

I added this cube to my order because of the price, and its a decent cube. For $4 you cant beat it. I feel like I can take this cube anywhere and not worry about it because of the price. i am thinking of buying a few of these for my young cousins and teaching them how to solve it. If you are looking for a cube at a cheap price this is a great one!

This was my first ever speed cube, and after a thousand solves or so, it still works pretty good. Definitely not the best on the market, but certainly perfect for someone who is just getting into speed cubing. Downside is it pretty much HAS to be lubricated after about a 100 solves, or its really bad. So make sure you buy lube for this cube.

This cube works for a first cube once you get faster it wont be as good as a YueXaio or a Thunderclap. I get Guanlongs for modding and they work perfect for that.

little bit springy out of the box but lube fixed it cheap feeling

This is a budget cube and it is MUST BUY since its so cheap!!

This is just a budget cube so its not the best. it feels sandy and corner cutting isn't that great.

I love buying these for modding them and trying difrnt things but I would use this as a speed cube as it isn't the best.

Like Many people have said its cheap but it feels like a ordinary budget cube. It feels sandy and slow with out any lube.

The Guanlong is a budget cube and for me the cube out of the box was sandy but it never popped on me .If you are looking for a budget cube this is definite the one

This cube is good for the beginner, if you tension it right. Out of the box it has virtually zero corner cut, but with trial and error you can get it to a solid speed with 40-45 degree corner cut. Good for the beginner as it is cheap.

i have this cube and for the price it turns great.

As you can already tell from the title... this cube is amazing loool. Can't really tell any troubles i had since my unboxing of it

For this price, this cube is trully amazing, totally worth the price 0_0

WAYYYYYYY CHEAP GREAT CUBE FOR THE PRICE!!! This is a must have since its just 4 bucks!! If you want to try out how to set up a cube, this is the best for it. Corner cutting is also good. Setting this up is similar to an aolong so you should try this cube.

This cube went beyond my expectations for a cube that is 4 dollars.It is smooth and sandy/bumpy and can corner cut 45 at the right tensions. Reverse cuts are about half a piece. It has decent speed but its not the best.

The YJ Guanlong is YJ's least expensive 3x3 and it is definitely targeting those people who want a good average performing cube at a cheap price. Out of the box, it was sandy and smooth. It also felt sluggish and I was expecting this due to the price. The speed is moderate and the turning is nice as well. Corner cutting is about 45 and 1/2 reverse. One issue about this cube is it does not respond to lube really well. The mechanism is really interesting. It is not due to the fact that it is so simple, but how it is so similar to the other YJ 3x3s (the Sulong, Chilong, and Yulong). I did an experiment where you take a corner and an edge from a Sulong and put in the Guanlong and see how it functioned (I then repeated this with the other cubes). What I found out was they all worked the same. *Just a reminder this was something just out of curiosity* Overall, this is great for beginner speed cubers, a great puzzle to gift to a friend and excellent for modding (due to the simple mechanism).

I bought a few for friends because they were cheap. Cheap cube feels cheap, turns cheap, what did I expect? Not anything special, but doesn't cost much.

It is alright and worked fine for a first cube. But once I started to get sub 30-35 seconds, I knew that I needed to get something that gives better performance. This 3x3 is still great for beginners.

This is a decent cube, but the ShengShou legennd is better for the same price. Also, in my opinion, the stickered version performs much better than the stickerless one.

The YJ Guanlong is an amazing cube for its low price of $3.95. On medium tensions, this cube can corner cut just below 45 degrees and reverse cut about a half cubie. The sticker quality is great like all other YJ and Moyu products. I would recommend this cube to beginner solvers looking for a low cost cube with high performance. My only issue with this cube is the hollow feeling caused by the cheaper plastic that was used. Otherwise, it beat all my expectations of a $3 cube.
