If I am practiced up, I can do a cube in under 7 minutes.  But I have to practice a few times and have my book handy for some of the moves.  been a few months since I did it though.

True.  Plus you can lube them as well.  Mine is fairly loose already, so I have never worried about lubing the thing.

Lubed, not oiled.  Oil would damage the parts.

Wouldn't lube get it sticky once it started drying?
