3X3x3 Magic Cube Tactile Cube for Blind 3D ​​Embossed Braille Fingerprint Speed Cube

Really cool toy

Purchased for my elderly blind mother. She hasn’t stopped playing with it since she got it. The tactile squares are easy to feel and matching them up helps keep her mind sharp

I'm a seeing person but sometimes I just really like to close my eyes and do something tactile with my hands that's really absorbing. That's why I learned braille, and that's why I bought this cube. I love this cube and was able almost instantly to solve it without looking at it, once I re-learned the beginner's solving algorithm, and a lot of the textures just feel good to my fingers and make me happy. It also rotates very nicely, just like a real branded Rubik's Cube.I have only two small complaints:1. Most of the patterns have very nice symmetry, which means that no matter how they're turned you can instantly identify them even from a brief touch. But one is not. The hearts. The hearts are cute visually, but I hate how they feel. I also occasionally mix them up with the other ones, particularly the trapezoidal square bumps. I'd much rather have, for example, a concave version of the round bumps, or even just a little pyramidal dot in the middle.2. They're not manufactured in a consistent manner! I ordered two of them and not only in the mapping from textures to colors different between them, but the arrangement of the textures around the cube is also different. My first cube had the square bumps on white and yellow was flat, which I thought was just perfect, but the second one has the two-circle pattern on the yellow side which I don't quite like as much. And you have no way to anticipate which one you're going to get, it's seemingly random. This is quite different from a traditional Rubik's cube where the arrangement of the colors is always 100% consistent. I'll get used to it but I really wish I could just have two identical cubes.These are small complaints though and overall I love this cube and would highly recommend it to anyone. Even to a sighted person who has no intention of trying to solve it blindfolded, it adds a tactile dimension to the experience that makes it more engaging and a better experience. Of all the zillion variants of Rubik's cubes in the world this one is the best.

This is an excellent cube for the price. Other textured cubes are much more expensive and not designed for speed cubing. I own two of these, one for practice and one for competition. As others have noted, manufacturing is inconsistent. My two cubes have the same textures, but as shipped, the textures were applied to different sides. Fortunately the textures pop off with a small screwdriver and can be rearranged as desired. The colors vary, but I'm blind, so that's not a problem. I agree that the heart and box textures feel similar, but I can simply remove the heart textures to produce one side of the cube that is entirely concave. It's worth noting that these cubes have a speed cube feature: The center cubie of each side pops open to reveal a screw. Adjusting the screw produces a tighter or looser cube, giving you some control over corner cutting, etc. What can I say? I'm totally satisfied.

Was fun for my blind ggson

The idea is great but I barely used it and a couple of the colored plastic pieces fell off.Not well made.

I purchased these for an event that I am hosting for the blind and visually impaired and am seriously impressed. They are packaged nicely, they turn with ease, and the shapes are easy to distinguish. I can't wait for the attendees to have another item to discover! A+

The whole point of this cube is be functional through tactility.One of the squares ended up with the wrong shape on its side and it completely ruins the product.The idea feels not just fun but inclusive for different levels of ability and now I can't even use it.
