The Open Cube is made from 100% sustainable timber and finished in toy-safe, water-based paints and varnishes. It’s really versatile too – you can flip it over to use the solid side as a table for crafting or snacks (or to rest a hot cuppa on when the kids are finally in bed!)” Rosie says: “The Open Cube is brilliant from the crawling stage onwards – from exploring the tunnel to those first experiences using our Ladder or Slide, it supports your child’s journey towards independent climbing. It’s a perfect piece to use as part of a larger climbing frame ensemble – combine it with the Tunnel, Ladder or Slide and adjust the height using the rungs to build increasingly challenging setups that grow with your child, helping their skills and their confidence to flourish. This means kids can use it as a tunnel to climb through, an obstacle to climb over, a table or even a den! In addition to comparing the physical traits of the connected cubes I tested, I took extensive notes on the usability and quality of the associated app, focusing on legibility, convenience, and utility.The Open Cube has two plywood sides, two sides with our signature chunky rails, and two open sides. Software: Some cubes are connected, meaning they sync with a phone app to track solve times, provide tutorials, and more.During testing, I made a point of noting the sounds of each cube I used. Sound: A given cube’s sound profile isn’t necessarily a good thing or a bad thing-much like with mechanical keyboard switches, it’s a matter of personal preference-but each model makes a slightly different sound and produces different volume levels regardless of how you adjust them.Good cubes instead slide the out-of-place side into position as you move the other, allowing you to keep your flow going throughout your solve. In this scenario, if the cube you’re using doesn’t have an inner mechanism that allows the pieces to slide easily past each other, it can lock up. When you’re moving layers of a cube quickly, often you begin to move one of the sides before another fully gets into place.
