Review on Creality Mainboard Carborundum Platform Meanwell by Aaron Parish

Revainrating 3 out of 5

This printer is not ideal for enlargement.

It seems that all Creality has done to make this printer bigger is to add longer arms and a larger platform. The biggest issues are things like sag on the X axis, a regular Ender 3 Pro has 1 Z motor which is fine but when the X gantry is wider and heavier a Z motor struggles. This printer came assembled, I liked it, but the wheels on the axle were too tight so after a few days of printing they started to crumble. I tried to solve them but then the print quality wasn't there. All in all, I think this printer needs over $600 worth of upgrades, bringing the total to nearly $1,000. For that price, you'd better buy another printer.

Pros
  • 3D Printer
Cons
  • Small Parts
