I have the vortex, the ring and the coil ones.

The ring is disappointingly bad. It felt cheap and lightweight... and almost like it was made out of plastic. It also doesn't stay together and will fall apart unless you tie them together with those sandwich bag wire ties that they use in the packaging. This was also one of the easier ones to solve but requires more dexterity in your fingers.

Coil is nice, feels heavy and solid. It's on the easy side but even thou it's rated at 3, it seems harder than the ring that is rated at 5.

Vortex... makes my brain hurt. I've it for 6 months and still haven't solved it. I've taken it apart, but have no idea how to get it back together again. It's $10... which I think is kinda worth it given how complex and time consuming it is.
Nice find OP.

Why does it seem the four I have are the ones that always go on sale?

Looks like Coil is sold out at that price at Amazon. Still available at Walmart though.

These look like good knickknacks for Christmas stockings and Easter baskets.

I have all of these and a few others, and I think the ring is the biggest disappointment since it doesn't lock together when in the ring shape. Of the ones listed I like the coil the best.

Love these and add to the collection every time they're on sale. Many/most of them are a greater challenge to get back together than to get apart. I often wish I would have recorded a (slo mo) video of the moments before solving.

I own all the items linked and I agree that the ring is the most disappointing one. It was the first level 5 I received but it is too easy. Plus it falls apart when you are done with it. Most of these are fun as you have to figure out how to take it apart but also put it together. This one takes away 1/2 the excitement of solving these puzzles. The other challenge levels seem about right and I would recommend based on the level you are looking for.

Full disclosure, solving these puzzles in a specific order may or may not open portals to hell.
