For your first 2x2 speedcube, not bad but it wont be long before you need a new one. The look and feel is really nice and needs lube almost immediately after coming out of the box(or at least used to I don't know about now). If you don't lube it, You cannot tell a difference between the old Rubik's 2x2 and a YuXin 2x2 not lubed. Comes with a nice stand for display and I have tried many ways to open it and take pieces out and have had no success so take it as cheap, durable, thirsty for lube and good for starters.
