Our Erno’s cubes are brightly coloured and lightweight. Their internal mechanism is designed with in-built elasticity, making moves easier even when the cube is not perfectly aligned. This is perfect children and beginners.
Erno's Cube
The Erno's Cube has the same colour arrangement as the original cube designed by Erno Rubik's and followed by all major manufacturers of cubes.

TRAINING
Welcome to our training section. Here you will find everything you need to master the cube yourself and learn how to teach it to others.
PART 1
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CUBE
Tutorial 1.0 | Introducing the cube
In this video we explain the different pieces that make up the cube and show you how to move them around. We will also introduce the notation for these moves and a sequence – which is a series of moves.
PART 2
LEARNING THE METHOD
Tutorial 2.0 | Introducing our story-based method
In this video we introduce the story that we will use to help memorise the steps of solving the cube. Our story is a treasure hunt that comprises seven chapters.
Tutorial 2.1 | Chapter 1 - Create the white cross
In the first chapter we find a treasure map where the white cross marks the start of the trail. We create a white cross with colourful legs on top of the cube.
Tutorial 2.2 | Chapter 2 - Solve the white corners
In the second chapter we follow the trail through a boulder field and solve the white corners on the cube.
Tutorial 2.3 | Chapter 3 - Solve the second layer
In the third chapter we pause to go fishing, and solve the second layer of the cube.
Tutorial 2.4 | Chapter 4 - Create the yellow cross
In the fourth chapter we use a hot air balloon to spot the yellow cross, which marks where the treasure is hidden. We create a yellow cross on top of the cube.
Tutorial 2.5 | Chapter 5 - Solve the yellow edges
In the fifth chapter we take the treasure home via the river and solve the edges of the yellow cross by matching them to the correct colour faces.
Tutorial 2.6 | Chapter 6 - Position the yellow corners
In the sixth chapter the river reaches the sea and we position the yellow corners between the matching colour faces.
Tutorial 2.7 | Chapter 7 - Solve the yellow corners
In the seventh and final chapter we reach the shore and clamber back through the boulder field, turning the yellow corners so that yellow faces upwards and the cube is solved.
