Six Sides. Millions Sold. One Original.

The toy that sparked the fidget movement.
In 2016, two brothers launched an idea on Kickstarter.
50 days later, Fidget Cube made history by becoming the 3rd most backed project in Kickstarter history, with the help of 154,926 backers.
Loved By Actual Fidgeters.
David S., ✅ Verified Fidget Cube OwnerI'm glad I waited for the real thing and didn't buy a cheap knock-off. It is nice. Feels good in my hand. I can't decide which side I like best. I always switch between them. Having ADHD, it has been great to have. I carry it into meetings and have an easier time paying attention and staying engaged. I highly recommend this.
Daniel M., ✅ Verified Fidget Cube OwnerFrom the first moment I saw Fidget Cube in the Kickstarter campaign, I knew that I would want to have one or more of them (I already have 3 from Antsy) ... The authentic cube, its quality, its touch... It is inimitable. If you want the best, you have to buy it from those who invented it.
Janja, ✅ Verified Fidget Cube OwnerUnlike knockoffs, Fidget Cube can be used in total silence. I get antsy in meetings, especially when I have to speak in front of others (I have social anxiety) and clicking pen, tapping feet or tapping table all demonstrate discomfort and nervousness. Big no-no. Fidget cube allows me to calm in total silence. It also allows clickety-clicks when I am trying to focus on work (hello ADD) and it helps a lot.
The Original vs. The Imitations
We invented Fidget Cube in 2016. Then bad actors got busy ripping it off. Here's the difference.
Fidget Cube™
Other Cube Fidget Toys
Designed by Matthew and Mark McLachlan and launched in 2016. Funded by 154,926 Kickstarter backers. Made by the people whose names are on the patent.
Manufactured anonymously by sellers who copied the design after our Kickstarter blew up. Frequently re-listed under a different brand name every few months.
Meticulously designed tactile features. Hand-tuned switches and dials. Each one passes a stringent QC inspection before it ships from our manufacturing partners.
Cheap plastic. Inconsistent QC. Customer reports of cubes arriving with sides that won't snap together, mushy buttons without a snappy feel, gears that come pre-loose, and finishes that wear off in weeks.
Premium ABS plastic shell, non-toxic finishes, quality internals.
Often unspecified plastics. Customer reports of strong chemical smell out of the box, paint flaking off. Frequently no safety testing documentation provided.
An independent design studio in Colorado. A small team of two brothers. Future products you might actually want.
Counterfeiters and IP infringers who profit by ripping off products they didn't invent and don't improve.
Manufactured under our direct oversight, with documented working conditions and ethical labor standards.
Frequently produced in unverified factories with no transparent labor practices and no published QC standards.
Email hello@antsylabs.com. Mark or Matthew (or a team member they've personally trained) responds. We've been doing this since 2016 and we'll still be here next year.
The seller's listing may not even exist next month. Customer service is usually a "no-reply" address.

Fidget Cube FAQs
Is this the original Fidget Cube?
Yes. Every Limited Edition Fidget Cube on this page is from the original 2016 Kickstarter production run, designed by Matthew and Mark McLachlan. We're the inventors. When this stock is gone, it's gone for good.
Will it help me focus?
We've heard from fidgeters who've told us that their Fidget Cube has been a useful tool for their ADHD, anxiety, trouble focusing, long meetings, lectures, road trips, and quitting smoking.
To be clear: we're not making medical claims regarding Fidget Cube. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any condition or illness.
What we can tell you is that hundreds of thousands of people in the Antsy Community have expressed how Fidget Cube has uniquely helped them in their own lives.
Is Fidget Cube good for ADHD?
A lot of Fidget Cube users have ADHD, and Fidget Cube has become part of how they work, study, and get through long meetings.
We're not doctors and we don't make medical claims. Again, to be clear: we're not making medical claims regarding Fidget Cube. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any condition or illness.
What we do hear constantly from our community is that the variety of textures and features across all six sides keeps hands engaged in a way that single-action fidgets can't match in the same way. When one side stops being interesting, you flip to another.
Based on our anecdotal evidence, that novelty seems to play a large part in what keeps a fidget toy useful for ADHD brains over the long haul.
Is Fidget Cube safe for kids? What age is it for?
Fidget Cube is rated for ages 3 and up. It's small enough to fit in your pocket, so it's not appropriate for children under 3.
For kids in school, Fidget Cube is designed to be quiet enough to use during class without distracting other students, especially if you stick to the silent buttons, the breathe side, use features like the switch gently.
Many parents buy Fidget Cube for kids who need a discreet focus tool that won't get them in trouble for being distracting or loud in class.
Are these real Fidget Cubes? I've seen knockoffs.
Yes. We invented Fidget Cube.
Antsy Labs is the original creator and the patents and trademarks holder.
Every Fidget Cube on our site is authentic.
What you want to avoid are the unbranded "fidget cube" knockoffs sold by third parties online, which often have weak switches, loose dials, fall apart/break easily, and violate our intellectual property.
If it doesn't say Antsy Labs, it's not real.
Can I use the Fidget Cube without anyone noticing?
Yes, that's a big part of why we designed it the way we did!
If you're in a classroom, on a video call, in a meeting, or in any setting where another fidget toy (or clicking a pen) may be too loud or visually distracting, the Fidget Cube was built for exactly that.
How is it different from a fidget spinner?
A fidget spinner does one thing, while Fidget Cube does six.
Fidget Cube also allows you to discreetly fidget without the need to be looking at the toy while fidgeting.
Many other fidget toys are designed around watching the motion. Much of their satisfaction comes from the visual experience.
With Fidget Cube, the six sides are designed to be felt, and don't need to be watched. Click a button under your desk during a meeting. Spin the dial in your pocket on a phone call. Flip the switch one-handed while you're reading. You'll know exactly which side you're on by feel, which is why so many of our backers use Fidget Cube in classrooms, on calls, and in conversations where pulling out a different toy may be more obvious or distracting.
Why People Choose Antsy
Sarah C.Brilliant customer support from the team when I asked to cancel an order. They stopped the order before it left the warehouse & arranged a refund. ❤️
AngelineI've ordered from Antsy Labs before back in 2017 when the Fidget Cube first came out. I am a returning customer who is satisfied once again with my second cube!
Rose W.I like to support individual (non-corporate or 'big) businesses, and am delighted with the more personal touch in the whole process. Receiving 'personal' responses helps to shrink the world and widen the sense of community...both anti-anxiety feelings.
Tania V.I only trust Antsy Labs to get quality Fidget Cubes. I purchased our first one when it was still through Kickstarter. Great quality!!!
GewbieYou can tell that this business is a passion for its owners. Aside from the seamless purchase and delivery, the owners also seem very friendly.
Kim H.I am always on board for supporting the original creator for their product.
Damaris C.I placed my order in the start of the week and got it by the end! That's the fastest I've ever gotten an order delivered.
Heather R.Great products, service was excellent.
