Great printer, easy assembly and excellent print quality. Here’s the rub, it’s cheaper on Bamboo’s website. Also, you need to get the AMS system. It’s awesome. Coming from only printing one color to multi color printing is great! If you’re doing longer prints and going to run out of filament guess what? You can use the ams system to use a different spool for additional material! It’s great! There are some drawbacks, closed ecosystem and the video isn’t as good as Octo print and my raspberry pi was. I miss being able to use my pi. It’s still great, no more fussing with print bed knobs and paper to check the gap for the nozzle to the bed. It just works. Push the button and go! Also, I’d use the extra money I’d save on an enclosure for ABS and ASA filaments printing. I got one on here for 35.00 as a temporary one till I can save for a 235.00 one made of clear acrylic I can mount my ams on top of that has a carbon filter and active heat regulator. Or I’m just going to buy another printer with a heated chamber? This printer is great and it’s a excellent upgrade from my old Creality printer.

My husband bought this for him and my 12 year old Grandson. They have had so much fun with this. They are using it a lot with no issues. They feel this is a quality printer for the price. Instructions were very understandable. My Grandson figured it out all by himself.

Best 3d print ever , price and fast shipping

When it fails it's going to be catastrophic!We have been printing things just fine for a few months now, but I was trying to print a simple bracket today and stepped out to cook dinner and was alerted by the app that the printer had "been paused." I was dismayed to go into my office and find the printer in the status!Everything has been fine until today. Now, one print later, this printer is dead. Goodbye $600.

Excellent performance right out of the box ! So pleased with this product !!!

Best beginner/intermediate 3D printer there is. You will not regret this purchase.

I was given a 5 year old printer as the owner wasn't using it. I really struggled trying to get it to work, and then it just wouldn't print right.Not so with this, it's about as plug and play as you can get. It did help to be a little familiar with CNC terminology, but I had it assembled and running in less than an hour without any issues. Over only had one model fail and I'm pretty sure it was a design flaw and not a printer issue.I love getting notifications on my phone and being able to monitor the builds. I had one issue with a tangle in a spool but the printer detected it, paused the print, sent me a notification, and I was able to correct and restart without any problems.I love the AMS and being able to print in multiple colors. It can generate a lot of waste of one isn't careful, but I tend to create functional parts where colors can be done in layers, it's not that bad if one understands the process and uses colors wisely.I've already designed my own builds, specifically a vent adapter and a dust collector adapter. I saved over 20 dollars just for the dust adapter, and there were no vent adapters that I could find. I will probably save the cost of the machine in a year or less creating my own parts instead of buying them. Plus the adapters were spot on with the accuracy of the dimensions I specified. Prototyping is important though, I created partial pices for testing before building the full sized finished products to avoid eating time and material.There are some areas I would like to see improved. The first is lighting for the camera, it's terrible. I had to keep the overhead lights on until I found an LED accessory. Another is a basic maintenance manual, what to clean, when to lubricate and with what, and other general routine maintenance. It would also have been nice to include some information on how the AMS and manual feed work.Overall, I love this machine and think it was money well spent.

I made a mistake and purchased this without the spools. So I returned it and purchased the one I I tended/thought I had purchased.I have received that device from this same vendor and really like the easy to use app that goes with it. Putting it together and loading filament, configuration was super easy as well. Overall this is a great system.When purchasing this, I highly recommend that you purchase the foil lined enclosure that zips around the device to keep strong dunes to a minimal. Especially if you have littles or pets in home. Another good reason to have it is that it keeps little hands and paws out of it and harmful dust and pet hair. It’s definitely worth the $35 or so to purchase.Another tip is make sure you understand the differences in filament, the capability of this particular device and version. Verify that the filament you are buying will work on the A1 AND also verify with your print jobs if you are using something from online. The type of tip you use is important and will vary based on the print project and filament type.I would give it five stars but some of the extra parts were not included in the instructions and not part of the original assembly.As of August 15, I have yet to receive my refund for the first mistaken order. I mailed it back 21 September and it shows that Amazon did receive it.
