    I’ve had this printer for almost 2 years now. I’ve printed tons of prints and I have had literally no failed prints or problems. I was concerned about choosing the right printer because about how many there are. I am super glad with the results and hopefully I can print far into the future.
    P.s. I use Prusa slicer to slice my models. I love finding models off of thingiverse and I use fusion 360 to design my own models. This printer is super easy to use and fun for anyone, ever people who are not into robotics.

Great for prints that aren't too large but its a great printer for the money. Cost me about $250 with taxes and a roll of filament i bought separately.

    I bought this 3D printer maybe 10 days ago as my first printer and i love it!!! I have been running it everyday and have no issues or complaints! I already ordered a glass bed and yellow upgraded bed springs. I already relocated the spool holder to the side and printed a extruder knob. Probably the best first 3D printer anyone should get because it just performs amazing and it is only $200! just blows my mind how amazing this printer is and is like the new anet revolution for budget beginner 3D printers but with far superior print quality then any $200-$300 printer out there. Thanks for your review on this printer :)

    It's my first 3D printer, so I have no reference to any others, but the print quality is absolutely amazing! The frame is sturdy, the instructions and controls are easy to navigate and it takes literally any filament! *And all for less than $230!!!* My only problems were a loose bed and a crushed bowden tube clamp, but there were tools to tighten the bed rollers and a spare clamp was provided. Definitely one of my best purchases!

    I'm stuck between this and the Pro... The Pro has a magnetic plate so you can't heat it up too much, but it's more rigid, less noisy, and apparently more user friendly (so good for beginners).

    • @theblackhundreds7124

      Late reply, but when you download a model file (STL or OBJ), you have to import it into a slicer software. In the slicer, you edit the temperature, print speed, infill, thickness of the walls, etc. I highly recommend Cura slicer which works really well with my ender 3. Once you sliced the model and save the gcode onto a micro SD, you put the micro SD into the printer and print the gcode

    Bought the Ender 3 about 3 weeks ago. It worked fantastic for a couple of weeks, but now the filament is bundling up (lack of better word) at the nozzle, and we cannot figure out why! Using different colors and types of PLA, but all have the same problem. The manufacturer says it has to do with bed height adjustment, but we have tried adjusting it numerous times, to no avail. We did notice a slight indentation in the mat surface (like it melted down a bit). Appreciate any ideas, thanks!

      I've heard of people having problems with the tube that goes into the nozzle melting. Solution seems to be remove the tube from the nozzle (remove clip, push collar, pull out tube) and cut the distorted part off cleanly with a craft knife. Doesn't sound like it in this case, but worth checking.
