I saw that Shengshou rereleased their gigaminx in stickerless, so I decided to pick one up just out of curiosity. I haven't seen any other reviews of this puzzle yet, so I wanted to write one for other people thinking about buying it.

My favorite thing about this puzzle is the price. This gigaminx is significantly cheaper than any other gigaminx that is available. I was a little skeptical at first because of the remarkably low price, but my expectations were GREATLTY exceeded. This puzzle turns very smoothly out of the box, but the springs and screws need to be lubricated to get rid of the spring noise. After setting it up, I have ZERO complaints about it. This is exactly the stickerless gigaminx I wish I had years ago and it finally got released.

Overall, I HIGHLY recommend this puzzle.

This is a really good fantastic cheap stickerless Giga. I've had this puzzle for a little while now and I've only done one solve on it so far. But once I took it out of the box and unwrapped the plastic on this puzzle I had to wipe off the lube since it was covered in lube. I have loosened the screws some and lubed the puzzle to make it a bit better. But out of the box it's very good and you might not even want to add some lube. But Shengshou has out done themselves with this puzzle. Since It's so so so much better than the V1 but it has one major flaw that can be easily fixed. As I was solving it during the edge paring section I had a few times where the corner "caps" popped off the corner stem. See photo for better understanding of what I'm talking about. But anyways you can fix it by gluing them to the corner stem. Overall I'm surprised that that Shengshou barely made any changes to the mech itself other than making the parts have a spilt stickerless style with some very minor changes and they mad the V2 just a few MM smaller. But what's surprising is that this V2 is about Half the price of the V1 and at the same time the Cheapest Giga that Thecubicle has to offer. So yeah I highly recommend it. One last thing is that I bought this out of curiosity and I haven't herd that much about it within the past month of it being available to buy.

This gigaminx is decent for the price. It _must_ be loosened and lubed to be usable, but for the cost it is a good value and enjoyable.

This is the cheapest giga I could find and it works great. I know there are better ones out this but this works great for just chilling and gigaminxing.

Awesome works great!

It was my first gigaminx and it has worked very well so far. Side note: it was a little sticky out of the box (I think there was some lube on the outside of the cube).

A very good stickerless gigaminx, OOTB has some factory lube on it, so there’s no reason to lube it immediately. Turns much better after a couple of solves. Surprisingly great quality for its price. Like one of the other reviews, the corner caps on mine popped out a little, but I just pushed them back in (still didn’t solve the issue).

One thing to know, if you’ve solved a master kilominx or any NxN with parity, you won’t have to worry about it. Odd layered minx like 5x5 and 7x7 don’t have any parity, so you don’t need to learn any new algs. Basically, just solve it like a normal 5x5 with more center and edge building.

This is a really fun puzzle, and I solved it after 3 days. I would recommend to anyone wanting a new challenge that’s not super expensive.

Locks up a little out of the box. I am sure if I mess with the springs it will be better.
