If you want you materials to look similar to what you see on the cube, you shouldn't use region fit unless your object has the same aspect ratio, (or close), as the cube. Region fit will stretch your material bitmap to fit your object, giving you all sorts of weird effects. Instead, use the standard mapping Icon, and scale or rotate it as necessary before you apply it. Most of the standard included materials have approx. the same aspect ratio as the default mapping icon.
