I also recently got a Meffert's megaminx, and like you, I was initially disappointed with it... the thing was impossible to turn. I lubed it with silicone spray, and I've been wearing it in a little bit, and it's getting better. Also, on my cube, only one of the sides (orange) will untwist in the way you described... I assumed it was designed intentioanlly this way, so that people could easily open it. Maybe not. I'd be interested in hearing what happens here, since we have the same product. David

The correct solution is: weaker/shorter springs. Cheers!
