Revainrating 3 out of 5

Prints well but the quality of the machine is questionable

A colleague advised me to buy this 3D printer. There are several opinions about this printer.1. The first impression of the printer is: wow, looks cool. Very impressive.2. Assembly isn't bad, assembly takes time, but I wish the instructions were more useful. Some of the steps in the guide are really confusing.3. After digging into the assembly, I found that the entire frame of the machine was twisted. When 3 feet touch the table, one foot is in the air. I ended up using a washer to align it. Also, I noticed that the X-rail sits on the Z-pillars at an angle of about 2 degrees.4. When I tried to install the nozzle on the table (1mm spacing) it took forever. There were 4 adjustment knobs on the underside of the table but once I adjusted one corner the other corners were crooked to the point where the nozzle scratched the table. I need to increase the distance to make sure the nozzle doesn't scratch the table.5. Filling the filament is a pain too, it never aligns with the tiny feed hole. I had to remove the motor shaft brass screw to get play.6. After all these problems, the print quality was surprisingly good. I printed the dog onto the SD card that came with the machine. It turned out beautifully.7. The Auto Cool function is great. I felt drained leaving it to print overnight, the next morning the machine was cold but the fan was still running. I really wish they could turn on the auto power off feature after a period of inactivity.8. In general the car is good, but with the build quality I don't know how long it will last.
