Works great! When it does.
So far it works almost perfect when it works. I want to start this review by adding a quick note that I may have received a printer that was either mismanufactured or had some quality control issues. That being said, things were good until they weren't.Shipping and delivery are the item was as promised by prime. Unboxing and setting up the printer possibly took about 30 minutes total. It seems like the unboxing took a little longer due to the packaging being excellent. Putting a pieces together. Possibly took about 10 minutes at most. Once set up the device did itself. Seem to handle that very well and with very little noise and now enclosure. The touch screen seems a bit finicky and requires Force rather than tap. I would say that this may be the weakest link on the device, but it's definitely better than a bamboo version of the screen. I was able to crank out several dozen prints with about 90% accuracy and completion as with any other 3D printer learning, the nuances of the software can be a little frustrating. However, if you're used to playing with orca slicer or any other slicer, you eventually get your attached within a couple hours. I was able to build an enclosure without issues and install the camera as well. I would say that the cable from the camera to the touch screen appears to be a bit short.I get to the part where things just stopped working.The printer had been properly hustling for about 300 hours when at the commencement of a new print with auto leveling set. It was a large print, the nozzle and extruder system hit the leveling bed which caused some major catastrophic damage. The device allowed the nozzle and print bed to etch on each other and eventually fuse. The print bed has gold flaking material which eventually ended on all the components of the printer, including the belt drives and the the extruder system. The odd part about it is that the printer never stopped attempting to print during this process. I just happened to notice a noise level that was not consistent with the previous 290 hours of printing. The only thing that would stop it was unplugging the device. Since then I've been in contact with flashforge support which has been a dream to work with. I have a tech background so I was able to take the printer apart. Clean off all the gold flakings and metal flakings from all the components using air and vacuum. Flashforge decided to send me a new print nozzle, a new bed plate and a new extruder kit to resolve this issue. Luckily this is not my first printer and it won't me my last one either. Based on the customer support that I received.What do I like about this printer? I would say that the speed noise and accuracy are unmatched compared to bamboo or any cubic which I have filament change speed seems to be quicker with flashforge using flashforge filament seems to be the best medium to use. I've had some issues with the sunlu petg filaments for some reason, even customizing the profiles to the recommended sunlu specs seem to get a lot of scarring and inconsistent lines on prints.I will be updating my review once I install the replacement parts over the next couple weeks.Update 7/7/26Overall great machine. Going on over 3k hours of print and a few nozzle changes. I have replaced the entire hotend due to a filament issue (bad batch was more glue than filament). Upgrading to 5 stars due to support and being a machine with less issues than my anycubics or bambu.Ver másVer menos
