Yoyo would not sleep for 5 seconds. Tried everything, untwisting string. Finally tried to unscrew the yoyo to check the bearing. It was so tight i almost could not unscrew it. I was scared it would brake.finallyngot it unscrewed and put it back together. It was a little better but my old duncan fixed axles slept a lot longer than this, luckily I had the replay so i started using it. Other than trying to get used to binding it works great. That is on me, not the yoyo. Really disappointed in the yoyo. I have since ordered some more unresponsive yoyos and they all work great. Thought about ordering another narrow bearing for the first base, or maybe a spinstar ot snapback then figured no. I am disgusted with the whole responsive yoyo thing. It may take a while but I will learn these other ones. Not even gonna put the wide bearing in the first base cause i think the yoyo is not worth spending any more time on. Otoh, the Replay, Shutter, and speedaholic xx are all awesome. YMMV

It was fun while it lasted
I accidentally made a knot on my string within the 1st week, which is really bad for yoyos and I am a beginner who just wanted to try something new. I am in college and already spending $20 on a yoyo was a lot for me. I do not want to spend more money on strings though they are cheap. Thank you for the yoyo though!

Axle threads did not last an hour
I was enjoying it for a few minutes but then the axle threaded out because the halves kept loosening so now it's unstable/super unstable
