The Flux Capacitor Fidget Spinner, Lightweight Metal Fidget Toy for Adults

Yet another spinner to add to my collection! Being the OCD and ADD type, I've found spinners to be a great way to occupy my mind.But not all spinners are built alike, there is some real junk out there and some excellent pieces. This spinner being the latter.This is a minimalist type spinner, very modern and futuristic in appearance. I couldn't find any manufacturer defects or blemishes on it when inspecting it.The spinner itself is made of aluminum. I didn't find it overly large or small, just right for my hands (subjective) The three large external balls are fixed in place and do not spin. The three arms are slender yet not undersized.Of course if it doesn't spin then what good is it? Well you're not going to have an issue with spinning as this thing purrs like a cat. I've found if you hold your ear to the spinner while it's in motion you can find out a lot about it. For example, can you hear the ball bearing slapping together (not good) versus a continuous low hum? Holding the spinner between your two fingers will quickly tell you if the spinner is out of round or if it is getting hung up on rough patches.My only potential issue is the amount of side wobble, it feels a little loose, but not enough to take a star away. So in all it's a great spinner, it's smooth and produces very little noise, it's design is modern and most importantly it spins.Side wobble testHold the middle of the spinner between your two fingers. With your other hand grab the ends of the arm and move it back and forth checking for camber.

This is a very nice quality fidget spinner, albeit pricey for what it is. My son has something from another well known brand with a similar shape that spins in the same manner, but you can tell the heft of this one is more solid.The spin is pretty smooth and effortless, and the build quality is fantastic. It also came in a really fancy box, which makes it giftable and adds to the premium fit and finish. Except for the price I don’t really have any complaints about this, as it’s a pretty solid fidget.

The balls at the ends don't move. Only the center piece moves but it does spin for a very long time. Kinda boring.

I have two other fidget spinners to compare to this Flux Capacitor fidget spinner. Here is what I like or observe about this one:- It's the same size as my other spinners but lightweight since it is made from aluminum.- It spins nicely, up to 2.5 minutes with a firm spin. My heavier metal one spins almost 8 minutes and my cheap plastic one spins about 20 seconds. I think the lighter weight has the most to do with "only" spinning for 2 minutes because the construction seems good.- The ball bearings on the ends of the arms are stationary and do not move, which was slightly disappointing, although not implied or promised in the product posting. If they did move then it would be one more part to fiddle with, but there is still some satisfaction found in the shape and texture of them.- I like the smoothness of the machined parts.- I like the gyroscopic phenomenon when holding it while it is spinning. I think the large ball bearings on the ends of the arms enhance that happening.- The center can be unscrewed so that the ball bearings can be lubricated. Thankfully, the tiny ball bearings in there do not all fall out when it is unscrewed or that might have been the end of my fun. When I lubricated them, it didn't change the length of time it spins at all.- The spinner comes in a cool case. It would be a nice gift, although I plan to keep mine.

It’s got a good number of ball bearings to give it that satisfying sound and long range before another spin is needed. It hasn’t cured my ADD and if I had to guess people do not love it as a distraction hearing me play with it.
