Creality Ender 3 Pro 3D Printer Magnetic Hot Bed 220x220x250mm Resume Print 185mm/s

I have been looking at 3D printers for about a year before finally purchasing the Creality Ender 3 Pro. It took me about 12 hour to put it together and another 15 minutes to adjust the guide rollers. I have been in the Maintenance field for the past 30 plus years so it wasnt a challenge for me. I powered up the unit and printed the sample print of a pig that is on the memory stick. I was impressed with the print quality using a spool of PLA. I have since printed about 20 items from a bracket to wall mount a WiFi router to replacement antique pull knobs for my wifes antique dresser. This printer hasnt let me down yet. I have only printed with PLA so far but will soon be attempting to use other materials. I especially like the removable bed plate that makes removing your print very simple and not needing to use a putty knife. I have also found that I havent had any problems with prints breaking loose from the bed while printing. I did a fair amount of online learning about setting up printing parameters before I received this printer which Im sure helped with my success. I do recommend the Ender 3 Pro for a first printer purchase

I was shocked to read reviews and see the price for this printer so I had to try it out. Not having much experience with 3d printers I was a little worried that it would be beyond my ability to configure and get this printing with a decent amount of quality. I could not have been more wrong. Setup was as expected they ship you a box of parts with the base assembled and it is on you to assemble the rest. The instructions were very good no complaints there. I did watch a few videos on assembly and setup so I was ahead of the game there. During setup I took everything apart and made sure it was all square level tight moved freely without and slop and I am glad I did. Assembly took most of an afternoon and I was printing test prints that evening. Going through the normal testing temperatures for hot end retraction tests etc. it was discovered that the default settings were VERY close to what I found to be the best. I have since printed a couple kg of PLA with this and everything is going great The magnetic build plate is a godsend for removing prints you just lift it off and "roll" the mat off the part comes off super clean and easy.Overall I would HIGHLY recommend this printer for a hobbyist level user I cant speak to the use of this in a production environment since that is not what I use it for. I have printed a couple boxes for Pi 3 B and a couple for buck converters all flawless. I am super pleased I took a chance on buying such an inexpensive printer and very impressed with the quality that can be achieved with a minimal amount of tweaking.

Easy to deal with. Highly recommend.
