Hopefully it's better than the 7 because mine was just and they will not replace it! The customer service sucks if you have problems especially when they are in a different country. I will never by another product from them again!
I have some awesome prints with this one. It's priced at only $309 (early bird + $20 coupon), which is absolutely amazing. However, there is one downside that I have noticed. The Y-axis rollers tend to wear out quickly when printing at high speeds. Additionally, I recommend always using a brim when printing. I suggest using a 6mm brim with a 0.2mm offset for easier removal. This not only helps with adhesion but also protects the corners from warping. It's important to note that increasing the speed might not result in a significant improvement due to the volumetric flow of the bigger nozzle size, which is around 30mm^3/s. So, keep that in mind when considering increasing the printing speed.
i picked up an SV07 about 2 months ago,, and from my previous printer to this one its a dramatic change.. while it has its issues, i overlook them due to its sheer speed.. something which would of taken ~12hours on my previous printer takes 2-3 hours on this printer. my only gripes was the lack of linear rails.. but everything else was as advertised. defiantly worth the extra 100usd over the current ender 3..
So besides the lights, what is the point of that *massive* shroud? It doesn't seem to have anything on it besides the lights. Also, I would really love to see a direct comparison between this and the Neptune 4 Plus (hopefully Sovol does a Max version of this to match the Neptune 4 Max).
yeah the shroud is a waste. i dont think sovol will do a max version of this, i dont think they have ever made a printer larger than 300MM. the big comparison between this and the neptune 4 plus is the built in accelerometers and the gantry struts which i think work better than the angle brackets here.
@@WildRoseBuilds did you have to patch the neptune firmware? there have been banging issues with homing the plus and max. So far, it's looking like if you adjust driver_sgthrs slightly and slow down homing speed to ~20-40, it will rectify the issue.
I upgraded to this from a Sidewinder X1, so my perspective puts this in a very favorable light. I don’t mind wheels and belts - I have a cnc mill that uses rods and I’m not impressed by them to the extent that I wish my printer had them.
Great intro to this printer. Id love to print that midel you did in blue, the face, do you have a link for that please, i didnt quite understand what you said, thanks
How big of a space do you need for the SV07 Plus? I know it's significantly larger than my previous DaVinci JR 1.0, but I'm wondering how big of a space do I need for it?
I just got mine. Assembled, leveled the bed and printed up the benchie supplied. almost flawless. Yay! my first print ever! I tried loading a couple of prints from cura 5.0, but it threw out an unrecognized command error. needs an upgrade. downloaded the firmware supplied on their website. followed the instructions supplied, when I pressed upgrade, it spat out an error message in Chinese, and bricked itself. Any idea how to fix this?
did you try to flashing over USB? there should be a way to upgrade from an attached thumbdrive instead which i find has better results. as for slicer i'd stick to whatever they supply even if its a bit older. there's usually some funky start and end gcode you have to transfer to a newer version of cura.
@@WildRoseBuilds That is exactly how I did it. reformatted the thumb drive and copied the firmware file 1.0.9something. I then put it in the machine while powered off, rebooted it. then went Configuration>System>Upgrade. the thing spat out what looked about 2 sentences on Chinese in red text on an orange background. likely a critical warning (this was not displayed in the help video). the thing restarted once, then again, to no brain for the past 24 hours I left it running
@@WildRoseBuilds yes, i copied off the files and reformatted the supplied drive, loaded the update to it plugged it in, cold started the whole machine and pressed update after boot up as described in the video. It then put out a line of chinese text in a box at the top of the screen, yellow on an orange background. After a while, it rebooted, the GUI behaved wonky as hell, I thought it might have been a bad update, so i pressed factory defaults, pressed yes when asked, it pretty much bricked right then Trying to get a replacement display/driver for it now
Sovol sent me a new firmware chip in the mail, Yay! Ok, I've done several benchies, and put it to work immediately cranking out small, useful parts for my day job (my company buys them) This being my first printer ever, there is a lot of trial and error, fine tuning and the like. My biggest complaint so far, is when a print wrecks and sticks to the extruder. there is no Z axis lift command anywhere I can find that doesn't require homing first. What if it won't home? I ran into that this morning, with half the print stuck to the extruder, no access to it without lifting it first. I tried to, but all I got was continuous grinding noises while the thing pressed itself into the build plate. power switch. I finally got it off on the next try by shutting off the power just as the print head hit the corner of the build plate position. had to re level the bed afterwards, it got tweaked
Looks like it's time to replace my old SV03. I was thinking about the Bambu P1P (coreXY is the future), but I need something for bigger prints (I agree, that a printer this size needs a 0.6mm nozzle). At this price, I can save up for the Bambu after I get the SV07.
Look into the qidi xmax 3. Core xy with heated enclosure and 330x330 build volume. I’ve been getting amazing prints on mine using abs at high speeds. I’ll have a review on that shortly!
From reviews + owning sovol 07+ I would say neptune 4 pro i s top, sovol second and kobra 2 is a problematic garbage. Neptune 4 was unavailable when I was ordering so I went with 07 and It is awesome. Some minor upgrades (more in software than hardware) and quality and speed are outstanding. But I'm thinking about max size printer and will definitly go for Neptune 4 max.
Been thinking bout getting a larger format printer than my cr6 se which is running kipper off a sonic pad and has few upgrades, been wanting to print some larger stuff a few times and it’s getting frustrating, I’m between this an an sv06 plus with klipper on it due to the good price/ performance or getting a Creality printer what do u think?
Good video. I'm looking at SV07 videos carefully as I would like to upgrade from my Ender 3 Max. One of the five videos in my list (by 3D Printing Professor) gave a negative review, the others seem to be positive.
Not related to the video... Just thinking out load. For small scale production I think you need a pla printer for prototyping and a resin printer for making hi quality rigid positives for molds. Molds will give you both the speed of manufacturing and versatility of materials.
Too expensive for what was delivered... something like that would have been okay 5 years ago, but today it's already outdated technology at an exorbitant price.
I would love to see Sovol succeed, but their QC is pure crap. I bought an SV06 based on influencers and am spending way too much time redesigning injection molded ABS parts because they just break under heavy use.
@@CuttinInIdaho it's a giant race to the bottom for all of these companies right now. They're pumping out product faster than they can even finish testing their firmware and either bricking machines with field updates or having the machine go Skynet and try to shove the business end into places it really doesn't belong. Plus, they're installing a firmware that requires a hair more brain power and user intervention that people aren't used to, so there's been a ton of backlash due to the learning curve. I've got a slide in one of my videos that sums up the Klipper experience titled "klipper is not for teh dumbz" that I think is pretty on point.
I wouldn't call it less trouble and reliable considering how many first layer and auto leveling problem the Neptune 4 has. Elegoo even admitted that the firmware and leveling sensor are flawed.
Hang on, I’ve had excellent results with my neptune 4 pro. At first I had some strange layer shifts but realised that I had tightened the x-axis belt too much (it snapped :)) after replacing it Ive had excellent, and fast, prints.
there's a little bug crawling around the print bed @1:35 and it gets squished @1:44 then you can see it laying down dead in the next cut lmao
😆
I was going to say the same thing, but I wanted to peruse the comments first. You beat me to it.😂
HAHA, I also saw that...afterwards checking comments, if I was alone :) very funny... so the printer is buggy... sad to see with my own eyes :) :)
This is a very good machine. I have been a happy user of one for many months now.
The race for big Klipper bed slingers have begun and I'm excited.
me too :)
Finally!!! New Sovol rewiev. As always, your videos are awesome
I won the SO07 plus at ERRF . Coming from 4- ender 3 v2’s it’s printing beautifully, easy to learn, I’ve had really good fast prints.
mind sux quality control sux sovol customers service would not reply not will to help

Model link please
My 1st printer .. pre ordered it and got it for a month now... been doing lot of masks and helmets on this.
Super cool! thanks for sharing!
the elagoo neptune 4 pro is the same printer but better in every metric. bigger and longer fan and metal guiderails
this machines a bit bigger but yes the neptune 4 plus is definetly better haha
If only it wouldn't be such a flawed printer for its firmware
any one know how tall this is
i assumed it was 400mm but i think its actually 380mm tall

one word Elegoo much better, bigger size, faster less trouble, reliable, good Wifi and Network. =.- winner
