It's too loud for the office

It's too loud for the office. I love my fidget cube, and on wfh days I get a lot of use out of it. But taking it out in public is a no-go; it's far too loud to play with at my office desk. I wouldn't feel considerate using it while waiting in lines or talking to someone. It's bad for movie night when you're confined to near silence. The fidget cube itself is delightful and exactly what I needed to help me pay attention in meetings and put my phone down altogether. I'd just love on that is SILENT— for work, for class, for interacting with the public.

Hello Willow, Thank you for the feedback and kind words, we appreciate it! Our cubes are designed to support both audible and non audible needs. Parts as "ball", "joystick", and two out of five buttons on "5 pad" are silent. Having everything silent would be a completely different kind of a toy, but I will make sure to suggest something like that for the future. Team Antsy Labs 🐜

Cute product and has worked so far

Cute product and has worked so far. I changed the plastic keychain out for a metal carabiner. Otherwise, good item.

Company cutting costs is affecting the product

I bought the first version of the product when the company started. My cube is no longer working as it used to after many years of use. Got the new cube and I'm very disappointed. The materials feel cheap and the switch is no longer 3 positions and doesn't feel good when touching it. Too bad that the quality is no longer important for the company

Hello, Thank you for the feedback! We have two kinds of fidget cubes, the original Limited Edition ones, the exact ones that were manufactured during the kickstarter, and the Zuru ones that can be purchased for lower price but do feel a bit different. If you enjoyed the original fidget cube, these are still obtainable! ☺️ Team Antsy Labs 🐜

Disappointed

While the products came on time and I was grateful for that, however, none of the LED fidgets spinners lit up.

Reply from Antsy Labs2025-06-11

Hello Kim, Thank you for the feedback, unfortunately we found out that with that specific batch the batteries are mostly faulty, which is why we have it heavily discounted. Apologies once more, and we hope that the fidget spinners themselves are satisfying enough. Team Antsy Labs 🐜

The cube is awesome

The cube is awesome. My daughter immediately started fidgeting with it and found her favorite side. Communication with the company was great. Shipping was fast and packaging was good and cute☺️.

Hey Maribel, Thank you so much for the feedback, we're so happy to hear that your daughter found her favorite side! ☺️ Team Antsy Labs 🐜

Selling Known Defective Products

Be careful to read the full product descriptions. I didn’t notice that an item my daughter wanted from Antsy is known by the company to have battery issues. No refunds.

Hi EC, Thank you for the feedback, unfortunately for that particular product we have experienced an issue with the batteries, which is why we heavily discounted the item. Team Antsy Labs 🐜

Helps a lot with my nicotine cravings

Helps a lot with my nicotine cravings. Instead of lighting a cigarette or hitting my vape, I just pick up the cube instead until I forget about it.

A fidget cube life story

I'm not entirely sure if THIS is where I'm supposed to put product reviews, but I guess I will anyways. (Frankly there isn't really a service to review? It's pretty standard order and shipping) So instead I wanna talk about products. I've bought a couple fidget cubes now. The first one was my very first fidget toy I've ever had, back in middle school. A reward from my parents for reading an entire book of scriptures. (Something I absolutely hated as a child because, while I believe in the church, reading scriptures is hell on my ADHD) However I lost my first fidget cube about halfway through my 8th grade school year. I'm 21 now, and it's been almost ten years. I decided to buy a new one because I have my own money now. The limited edition ones claim to be exactly like the original ones they sold. Which was ideal for me, because I wanted one like the one I had. Upon arrival, the limited edition one I bought was exactly how I remembered. I absolutely love it! Though the same cannot be said for the other one. You see I bought two types of fidget cubes, recently. The orange limited edition one (sunset? I believe is what it's called) and another one. Pink is my favorite color so I bought the "Hyper pink" one. I don't think it's an inherently bad product, but I will say two negative things about it. 1: the color is not nearly as vibrant as it appears in the photo. It's more of a magenta color than neon pink. 2: It has a texture. The cube is sparkly, which means it has a slight texture difference compared to the smooth texture of the other cube. As someone with pretty severe ADHD, the texture difference was upsetting :( I ended up giving the Hyper Pink one to my friend, because they weren't bothered by the texture the way I was. Because these are marketed towards people with ADHD and Autism, as those are the people usually looking for 'fidget toys' I would appreciate if the site gave a warning for when the cubes are differently textured than the standard ones. Or even just put something in the title to indicate that. Because, while not everyone with ADHD is sensitive to different textures, a lot of us are, and it would be nice to know before hand, especially because not all sparkly plastic has a texture like that. Don't get me wrong, this is a product I believe in, and support. And it made me very happy as an overwhelmed middle schooler with ADHD. It still makes me very happy now, and I would definitely recommend it to people looking for fidget toys. Though I don't understand why the original line is limited edition, and why they felt the need to change it in the first place. (Not for the better in my limited experience) That's not just about the glitter texture. My friend got a fidget cube after me, and I remember not liking it as much as my own, so I figure that must be after they changed something. Though I suppose I don't know for sure. I love my fidget cube. Thanks for making something that helps me cope with life.

Kickstarter vs Now

I bought a couple of these back when they were on kickstarter. I was super excited to find them again after all this time and bought the spider man one. I was so disappointed when I received the cube. It’s very cheaply made compared to my other ones and a huge let down. Cube looks cool though.

Reply from Antsy Labs2025-06-04

Hi Rebecca, Thank you for sharing your thoughts, we're sorry to hear about your latest purchase, but we hope that at least the looks will be satisfying enough for the cube to be useful also. Team Antsy Labs 🐜

Keep your expectations low and your money up

Ridiculously expensive shipping fees that were over 3x the price of a fidget cube, including what I had to pay the delivery driver. And when the fidget cube arrived, its box was scratched as if it was pre-owned or poorly stored, and the fidget cube itself also had some sides that were scratched and looked cheap. I ordered the silver fidget cube and it looked different from the picture; the actual cube’s color was dull and more gray than silver, and I wish I ordered a different version. Otherwise, the cube itself functions as normal. Though, the first time I used it, some of the contraptions were rusty which made me worried and I legit thought I ordered it from a scam website, but over time became smooth and satisfying to use.

Hi Abdulla, Thank you very much for your feedback, we are very sorry to hear about some of the pain-points you've mentioned.
