Okay if you are just getting into 5x5 or just want a budget cube to take with you places. However I do not see this as a competitively viable option. It basically preforms identically to the MGC, even having the same catching issue when trying to cut over 20 degrees on the inner layers where it locks up. Nowhere near as good as the 4x4 in my opinion, but still okay if you just want a functional enough 5x5. If you want a budget option that you will be happier with, put the extra 10 dollars into a single track AoChuang.
