Rubiks Professor Cube 5×5




Everybody loves the standard 3×3 Rubik’s Cube, but see what kind of brain-teasing fun you can have with this oversized 5×5 cube. This is a must-have for the true Rubik’s aficionado. Includes one 5×5 cube.

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars More is Better
A very challenging activity for a slow TV night. My 12 year old grandson stayed with it for hours, and solved it.

5 Stars Great toy – keep them entertained for hours!
I was skeptical purchasing this cube for my son reading all the bad reviews. He’s a “speed cuber” with the 3×3 and we warned him contanstly that this cube was not for speed cubing. He heeded our warning and we have had NO issues with the cube.

It is NOT fallen apart.

The stickers have NOT fallen off or come loose.

It’s such a great toy – provides hours of entertainment, makes you think, doesn’t need batteries, makes no noise, has no flashing lights, and is portable.

5 Stars Review
This rubik’s cube is a pretty good buy. It’s different from a normal 5×5 rubik’s cube in that it is smaller, just barely bigger than a 3×3. However, it is somewhat easier to work with than a normal rubik’s cube. The pieces don’t fall off as easily (although at times you have to “undo” a turn in order to get a piece to pop back in place). I would recommend it to someone who is interested in getting a 5×5.

4 Stars Great toy. Not Durable
I was excited the moment this arrived at my house. The first thing with it I noticed was how loose all the pieces were. Everytime I turn it, it feels like it’s going to break. On the second day with it my friends little sister was mixing it up because well it’s colorful and children like color. As she was doing it one of the white inside pieces had started to pop out. I pushed it back in and everything has been fine since then. Aside from the durability it’s a great toy and will keep you occupied for quite a few hours.

4 Stars Denfinitely only a puzzle cube, not for speed cubing
Good product and quality. This cube is definitely meant only as a puzzle cube and not a speed cube.

4 Stars Want to Keep a Teenage Kid Busy?
This is one “toy” I wouldn’t want to even take on. My son however, loves it and carries it with him every where. The only thing I don’t like about it is noisier than the smaller one and the thing sounds like it’s going to fall apart….but it doesn’t and it’s an excellent toy for an older child that wants to be challenged above the first rubiks cube.

5 Stars Rubik’s 5×5 Rocks
I bought a 5×5 Rubik’s cube a few days ago and it is great. I love solving it even though it takes around 15 minutes. I personally enjoy it much more than the 4×4 cube because it has fewer parity cases and has defined centers. I definitely recommend the 5×5 if you want to show off to friends and are sick of your 3×3 Rubik’s cube. YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO SOLVE A 3×3 BEFORE YOU CAN SOLVE A 5×5!!!!! If you can do that then by all means go for it, it’s a lot of fun.

4 Stars Very Fun to Solve
When I first took my 5×5 Professor cube out of the package I was a little concerned at how “loose” it felt. But now after MANY solves I have had no problems with it. This is a good product, but it is in no way for anyone interested in speed solving.

Many reviews complain about sticker quality on Rubik’s brand cubes, but I have not had such issues. (I own a Rubik’s brand 3×3, 4×4 and now 5×5) Although I will admit the sticker quality could be better, some reviews seem to claim that after a day or two of handing the cube the stickers were all but gone. This has not been my experience.

I would recommend this cube to puzzle enthusiasts young and old.
