FanXin 1x3x3 Spinner (big)

FanXin 1x3x3 Spinner (big)

FanXin 1x3x3 Spinner (big) is a floppy cube, a flat 1x3x3 cuboid, with a built-in spinner. The spinner sits in the centre piece, so you can solve it like a classic puzzle or simply spin it in your fingers. The "big" label sets it apart from the smaller version of this spinner. At around 8.5 x 8.5 cm and less than 2 cm thick, it fits comfortably in your whole hand.

How a 1x3x3 floppy cube works

A floppy cube has only one layer, so you turn the side faces by 180 degrees, which flips that part over to the other side. There are far fewer combinations than on a 3x3 cube, so most people figure out the solution on their own without learning algorithms. It works well as a child's first puzzle, a short break between more serious solves or an introduction to cuboids. A speedcuber won't find hours of challenge here. It's more of a gadget and a fun collector's item than training gear.

A spinner inside

The centre piece contains a spinner mechanism. When you hold the cube by its centre, you can spin the rest of it like a regular fidget spinner. The spinner works independently of solving, so you can spin it even when the cube is scrambled. For many people it's simply something to keep their hands busy at the desk or during a conversation.

Big version and finish

The big version is larger than the standard FanXin spinner, so it suits bigger hands better and is easier to grip while spinning. The smaller version, on the other hand, fits more easily in a pocket. We offer this spinner in the stickerless bright colour scheme: the colours are in the plastic itself, with no stickers, so nothing peels off or wears away.
