It can be almost impossible to turn at times. Instead of moving one to the right, you have to go three to the left, or fiddle with it so it lines up properly. You can still solve the cube but it gets annoying when it doesn't move the way you want it to.

I was hoping it'd be better cause it's really cool that it fits in your pocket. It's just too hard to turn. I ended up breaking the thing trying to get it to turn one way. And I cant put it back together cause one of the pieces is missing. I really like this product (I'm buying another one), I just wish it wasn't so stiff.

Maybe they made it stiff so it wouldn't turn in your pocket but if you know how to do it, you can finish a rubik's cube in 5 minutes, max, so I don't see the need to prevent it from turning. Apparently they thought people would solve like half of it and finish it latter.

I bought this to fiddle around with at work when I need a distraction from the grind. I am a decent cuber and can solve the full size cube consistantly between two and three minutes. This one takes me longer because of it size and stiffness. I have no use for it as a keychain so I removed the chain from mine. It does easily and inconspicuously fit in a pocket.

First of all I love the rubix cube, I love its puzzle and yes I can solve it. My problem with the keychain is it broke, its not durable. It just popped when I was playing with the pieces and they flew everywhere and I was in a public space, I thought it may have been my fault so I gathered the pieces. Then on a different occasion it exploded everywhere and thats where I left it lol. Its a nice fun product but play with it too much and it wont last.

Very convenient size. I wish they would design a clip that let you take the cube off the key ring even if it left part of the ring attached. It's hard working a small cube and the chain really gets in the way. Also the "action" on the cube is frustrating. I'm sure this is due to the size. It's really probably designed more for "show", but in a pinch if you're hooked on "cubing" and are stuck somewhere with time on your hands it does work!

I am 11 years old and can solve the rubiks cube consistently in under two minutes. I think this cube itself works really good I don't know about those other reviews but they must have gotten a defective one or something like that. Mine is very easy to turn (no, I didn't oil it.)

You don't even have to ask, yes you should buy it. Yes, it is a good purchase and yes, it is a good price. Yes,yes,yes. Oh yea it is only about an inch cubed. Now don't get me wrong - just because it is small doesn't mean that it isn't fun.

This is a review of the Rubik's Cube mini 3x3x3 puzzle cube on the keychain. I personally was looking for a cube small enough to fit in my coat pocket. When I'm out and about, the original size cube gets in the way, especially in my work bag. I never bought this cube for what it was intended for...a keychain. I was not looking for a keychain at all. You will find that a lot of reviewers are disappointed because they want the size and portability of the small cube, but they are not interested in the keychain aspect of it.

I don't know about you, but I've never had a keychain last a long time, unless it's metal. All of the plastic ones break over time. The presume the same would apply to this item. I opened this item, scrambled the cube and solved it. The cube is very, very tight, and difficult to maneuver, but it really works. If you are too rough with it, I believe it would break in no time. I took a wire cutter and cut the cube off the keychain, and it is much easier to maneuver that way. If you are buying this item because you are fond of the Rubik's Cube, and you want a keychain to show your fondness...cool, you will love it. But, if you are looking for a quality mini cube, that you will use frequently...this is not the one for you.

The problems I had with the original size cube were that it was in my work bag, getting kind of beat up, unprotected, and the stickers were getting damaged. I think I'll stick to the larger cube when on the go, but I found a hard plastic protector box for the cube on an auction site, which will eliminate the cube getting beat up in my bag. Some of you should try that too. Also, the auction sites sell miniature 3x3x3 cubes that are of better quality and a bit bigger than this item. They are small but not keychains. I think the keychain is cute, but use it as just that...a keychain. I would rate this a 5 as a keychain, but a 3 for the fun aspect of it. I chose something in between because I have to be fair, this is primarily meant to be a keychain, and secondary as a toy, because it actually functions. Even if you bought this and cut the keychain off the cube, you still got your money's worth in my eyes. Just don't take this thing too seriously. I hope that helps.

I had this cube when I was 3 -maybe 4- years old. I think was the first one that really captured my whole attention. The perfect size for my tiny little hands.

This time, 24 years later it's a gift for my 3 yo son and I'm sure he will enjoy it as much as I did.

Perfect to stimulate every little boy/girl's brain and I strongly recommend to play it with your child.

If you just love Rubik's but don't have a child... don't worry, even when it's about an inch side, it's completely functional, Buy it and Play it!!

This is a cool little toy. Many of my friends are amazed that it actually works.

It's unfortunately a bit too big to be a useful key chain, it does not fit in my pocket very well. Sometimes it can stick, more so than the full sized cube. But if you're looking for a small cube to practice on this works just fine.

The cube on this keychain fell apart the minute my son tried to move it. After it was put back together, it fell apart again right away. It's now sitting on his dresser in pieces. Worthless. Very disappointing.

I got this for a friend who loves Rubiks Cubes. She likes to keep it on her car keys so she has something to fiddle with when she gets stuck in a checkout line.
