Creator 5

Snapmaker U1, flashforge creator 5, both way better for multi material printing, and these are 3d printers, bc what's the point of sticking to one company again? And for budget option - sovol zero. I own one, i know people love to say it's printer you need to tinker a bit, but plain is good enough a

Worth noting that for basically the price of an X2D combo you could get the flashforge creator 5 pro, which is an enclosed four-head toolchanger with the same build volume, 320C nozzle and a heated chamber. If you think there's a chance that you want to do multicolour in any serious way in the futur

I’ve been looking into this a lot recently. I have a Core One with INDX on order, a Bambu H2D (pre known shenanigans), and a U1 as my main printers these days. I’m actually now most worried about my C1 going from my rocksteady reliable for abrasives and TPU to being less useful than my U1 with an IN

You can add 3mf files as objects into an existing project and it carries over painting, volume modifiers, fuzzy skin etc. Roughly 99% of the print profiles on makerworld are utter inexcusable trash anyway so when I'm printing other people's models I almost never end up printing them with the author'

Yep, and the P1S is still excellent and can be easily upgraded with a chamber heater (plus aftermarket hotends to add quick-swap nozzles etc) for a not hugely significant amount of money.

I am not sure if its still supposed to work. The thing about the U1 is that its another 170 euro on top of the 850 euro it

I know it's not on your list, but I have spent months trying to decide between the snapmaker u1 and the flashforge creator 5 pro. All the print tests came out identical, but the heated/ cooled chamber made me go for the creator 5 pro (it's also $150 less than the u1). Good luck deciding, it's a fun

I’d say the s1 has been more reliable as its printing right now with the same hours as the ad5x. While the ad5x is sitting in the floor waiting for flashforge to fix it under warranty. It depends on the type of functional parts. Are you wanting to use abs, Asa, nylon? For those you need a heated cha

There is also a competitor to the U1 The Flashforge Creator 5 Pro. It just launched, thing is there is not reviews yet. But it has a higher nozzle temparture and heated chamber
