Review on 24V 250W HICTOP MK3 Aluminum Heated Bed Hot Bed PCB Heatbed Platform For Reprap 3D Printer - 275 X 220Mm by Joseph Cvetkovic

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Near flat and heats evenly, poor wire quality

Update: Going on 6 months. The weak link to this otherwise great product are the wires. Specifically where the wires are crimped at at the connector. 3 of 6 wires have already broken in 6 months. The wires are pretty thin and easily broken over time from the constant movement of the bed. They break specifically where the wire terminals are crimped. Still a great heat bed but be prepared to repair some wire connections from time to time.Modified my Monoprice Maker Select Plus to accomidate this. Although it is not completely flat it was pretty close. It appears to heat evenly and I have been getting consistently good bed adhesion on all areas of the bed using Buildtak.

Pros
  • Excellent bed, fit perfectly for my Hypercube evolution build.
Cons
  • Heats up slowly, which can increase printing time and affect overall printing quality
