A ball squashes and comes back. A cube squashes, loses all its corners, and then slowly works out how to be a cube again. That's the whole difference, and it's weirdly good to watch.

The Nice Cube is the solid end of the NeeDoh range. There's more resistance here than the classic squeeze balls, so it pushes back when you squash it, which is exactly what some people want and others don't. If you like a fidget with substance rather than something that gives way instantly, this is your one.
The Candy Swirl finish is the part people fall for. Pink and white marbled through the material itself rather than printed on top, which means every single cube comes out different. Yours will have a swirl pattern that no other cube has, and you'll see it shift and stretch every time you squeeze. It's a fidget you end up looking at as much as using.
At roughly 5.7cm square it sits neatly in the palm, fits a pocket or a pencil case, and makes no noise at all. Quiet enough for a classroom, a meeting or a long drive, and plenty of these end up on adult desks rather than in toy boxes.
NeeDoh are the fidget brand most people have actually heard of, and the Nice Cube is one of the better ones in the range if you want something more substantial than the originals.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Is it firmer than a regular NeeDoh?
Yes, noticeably. The Nice Cube is the solid one in the range, so it pushes back when you squeeze rather than giving way immediately. If you've found the classic squeeze balls too soft, this is the one to try.
Will mine look like the photos?
Close, but not identical. The swirl is marbled through the material, so every cube comes out of production with its own pattern. That's the appeal rather than a fault, but it does mean yours will be its own thing.
Does it really go back to a cube?
It does, which is far more entertaining than it sounds. Squash it completely and the corners reform on their own over a few seconds.
How big is it?
About 5.7cm square, which is 2.25 inches. Comfortably palm-sized, and small enough to disappear into a pocket or a pencil case.
Is it noisy?
Not at all. No squeaking, no clicking. That's what makes NeeDoh usable in a classroom or a quiet office.
Is it safe for younger kids?
It's not suitable for children under 3 due to the choking hazard. Older children handle it fine, though check it occasionally and replace it if the skin ever splits.
How does it compare to the other NeeDoh?
The classic squeeze balls are soft and give way instantly. The Nice Cube is solid and resistant, and the shape change is the interesting part. If you like pressure, go the cube. If you like squish, go the originals.
