Feb 24, 2015 at 14:25 comment added Mathieu Baillif @Ramiro. I thought that term "Cantor cube" was reserved for $2^\kappa$ for uncountable $\kappa$. And you are right, the direct sum is a simpler example.
Feb 24, 2015 at 14:21 comment added Ramiro de la Vega You can also let $X$ be the direct sum of $\omega_1$ copies of $2$. That is the set of all elements of $2^{\omega_1}$ with finite support. It is easier to show that this space is Frechet-Urysohn, and it is not first-countable (hence non-metrizable).
Feb 24, 2015 at 14:18 comment added Ramiro de la Vega The Cantor space $2^\omega$ is a Cantor cube.
Feb 24, 2015 at 9:54 comment added Mathieu Baillif $2^\omega$ is the Cantor space, of course, not the Cantor cube.
