Clear history
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.
How wonderful this 3D Printer isIt came shipped on time and package was really compact and in tact.It is padded nicely inside so all components and the printer is well protected. I was impressed with this.Setting it up will take some time. I used YouTube to help me get through the process. Instructions on manual are well designed but there are a few parts where you would screw on and couldnt get the next part on as it probably shouldve went before a certain part. Put the belt on before screwing anything on this part it will save you somr time. But I advise you to have the manual and YouTube video to help with installation as this is where you should take the time to set your machine up properly.All parts came brand new has a very premium feel to it.I recommend this product to any first timers to 3D Printing or who would like that extra machine in the background. I also recommend to invest in upgrades for this 3D Printer as soon as you can afford it will make your life easier and help with the quality and maintenance of the machine. There are upgrades that can be printed as well as parts to be upgraded.Does come with a small amount of Filament you can use to start printing but I suggest buying some before your printer gets to you because as soon as you get this you will not stop printing Like Me GREAT BUY......very impressed and will definitely buy again
Cant wait to try it out assembled real easy but watch utube videos first
