Review on ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ Creality Ultra-Flexible Removable 3D Printing Plate - 235X235MM by Tyler Born

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Adhesion to what I received is terrible, regret buying

This is the same size and shape as the standard Ender 5 and attaches exactly the same. The only difference is that the logo is centered and larger. The problem is that the adhesion is terrible even after several leveling and washing. I was hoping it would work the same as the one that came with my printer, but even heating to 60 degrees and using 215c PLA nothing sticks. Slightly dented in the middle, it was sent in an envelope with a metal instrument, not a box. Easy to install and remove, but mine refuses to glue anything other than large flat pieces, even then it has problems because the center is slightly smaller than any edges. Tested grip compared to what came with my Ender 5 and it's definitely better than worse, parts printed on the original can't stick to it. I've tried 2 brands of my regular PLA (one prints at 205, the other at 215) and both have some issues. Update: After comparing the magnetic surface made with my Creality printer and this magnetic bed, I noticed that the texture of the bed is much thinner on the original than on this one. The original is matte black, this one is glossier due to the less detailed finish (think fine sandpaper versus coarse sandpaper). This likely affects adhesion since PLA has less surface volume to trap and melt on a microscopic level.

Pros
  • 3D printer parts and accessories
Cons
  • High price
