It's amazing how cheap 3D printers have improved in value and speed recently, double Z, direct drive, networking, very good bed leveling and hi speed for 200.

@lyndonfoster1090 10 ай бұрын

Wonderful as always. One of these days if you run out of ideas to review , reviewing 3d printing accessories like air purifiers, filament driers or whatever useful accessories you have found useful would be great. I really appreciate all your efforts and you are making a difference in the 3d hobby world for sure.

I'm new to your channel and I must say... It's impressive the amount of useful and straight to the point info you pass in a 25 minute video reviewing a printer. The comparisons to Prusa and Bambu were the cherry on top. Can't wait for your review on the KE (the one I really want from Creality)

@Liberty4Ever 10 ай бұрын

Creality engineers worked hard to get to that $199 MSRP with most of the modern features we want. They did a great job of eliminating cost and complexity (no bed leveling knobs) without adversely impacting the capabilities. As expensive as cable is, I wish manufacturers would switch to a 4 conductor continuous flex rated cable to the extruder instead of a large ribbon cable. CANbus or some similar serial interface could be used and still be less expensive than ribbon cable and connectors. This would allow the cabling to stay the same for new printers as features are added such as LEDs on the print head, an optical filament runout sensor (mere pennies) at the top of the extruder where it's completely painless, etc.

I also had an original Ender 3 (my first ever 3D printer) which I modified and upgraded the heck out of, but sold a few months ago. The Ender 3 V3 SE is a considerable improvement on the original Ender 3!

Already racked up 200 hours on her and still going well.

Thank you for another great review. This looks like a very good machine for the price, but the only other 'con' thatI see is that it still has a PTFE tube in the extruder/hotend. Perhaps since this printer is designed for beginners, Creality thought it was better to have the printer designed for lower temperature filaments. Do you think it would be easy to fit an all-metal heat break to this hotend?

I was about to be super poo poo on this printer and say it doesn't do this and it doesn't do that. But I took a step back. This is $200 and this is kind of everything you need for a beginner and I'm not a beginner. This printer wasn't meant for me, I completely agree with you about the filament run out sensor and if this printer is geared for beginners rookies will make that mistake. I've done that twice, when I first started. I just wish it went to 300° on the hot end but now that I have printed for as long as I have, only 3 years though, plus 260 isn't really needed on an open frame printer in my opinion, but there are so many enclosure solutions now that are cheap. That's why I'm a stickler for the 300. Epic review.

Creality has the legacy and brand recognition to do it. With that new Kobra 2 Pro out it so hard to decide which pros and cons you can accept. Roller bearings on the X axis, and with the backing of the Creality community this would be a budget beast if there was input shaping from the get-go. With Bambu Lab starting the next gen trend of 3D printing, I do wish to see a bedslinger I can still say I would purchase today. My 1st printer was the Aquila X2 which is pretty much the Ender 3 V2. Now I got a P1S+AMS Combo I'm content. Though I do miss tinkering so I'm waiting for that affordable bedslinger that will give my P1S a run for its money. Great work as always!
