I had been interested in getting into 3D printing for quite a while, but kept putting it off due to cost and fear of kids being around an open air printer. I found the Voxel on sale one day which fit well into my price range and, best of all, was enclosed and ready to go out of the box. It took some time to get used to 3D printing in general, but it wasn't too long before I was successfully printing all kinds of things. Unfortunately, a couple weeks in, my extruder's X-axis locked up and stopped working. I contacted Monoprice tech support who immediately helped with some recommendations and ultimately decided to replace the unit for me. Their tech support was fantastic, and despite the problem, I highly recommend this printer (which is why I'm giving it 5 stars). PROS: - Ready to go out of the box - Enclosed, so it is a *bit* safer around little kids - Wifi connected - Quality is good. Better than I expected at the price - Works well with both PLA and ABS (though best results with PLA) - The Flashpoint software is easy to use (this coming from a first time printer) - Touch screen works well - Great price point - Great customer service from the manufacturer CONS: - Extruder broke on first unit (immediately replaced by tech support) - Wifi range seems poor - The quick start guide should recommend doing a calibration. Their online docs cover this, so be sure to read through those and not just the guide that comes with it. My first unit was not calibrated well and prints kept coming loose from the bed. Other Advice: - If you are a first time 3D printer like I was, do some research online and watch a few videos. Be sure to understand what rafts and supports are and how to use them. I have had the best success with bed adhesion when using rafts on this printer. - The included spool holder only holds the Monoprice 0.5 kg spools. Be sure to get (or print) a full size spool holder if you want to take advantage of larger spools. - Prints did not stick well to the bed at first. Be sure to calibrate it before printing. I would also recommend putting some blue painter's tape on the bed for better adhesion. - If you are going to use wifi, this probably need to be close to a router or repeater. Mine could not connect from a room about 50' from a router but was fine from about 25' away. - The bed is on the smaller side. I haven't found too many models that don't fit, but if you want to print larger objects, you may want to consider a bigger printer. Overall, I'm very happy I got this printer. My experience with Monoprice's support has also reassured me that my investment was well placed and I will happily buy from them again. If you are looking to get in to 3D printing without breaking the bank, this is a great place to start. Happy printing!

I got this thing about a year ago, and it chugged along without issue from the very start. It's enclosed, so it kept my cats out - despite their best efforts. The printing software isn't bad at all (FlashPrint-MP) and has plenty of features for slicing models. I've tried a few other programs but frankly I think I like this one most. It also makes sending jobs to the printer extremely easy; you literally just get its IP address, plug it in, and after slicing it, click print. It automatically heats itself up and goes. The only downside is the leveling of the print bed - somehow mine became miscalibrated, perhaps because of extreme temperature fluctuations while printing (15 F at night to 75 F during the day). There isn't a way to recalibrate the leveling of the print bed; I ended up having to contact Monoprice, who simply gave me a shipping label and replaced the machine for free. By far the best customer service and device support that I've ever seen. In short: If you don't want to fiddle around with calibration or technical details, this is a great printer. Just pop in .stl files into the included software, point it to the IP address you get on the touch screen, and hit go. If it becomes miscalibrated, they support their device and will fix/replace it for you.

I got this printer a few years ago as my first 3D printer, and I went with this one due to it being a relatively affordable price point and the printer itself being simple and enclosed. However, I cannot discourage beginners from using this printer enough. While it's true that this printer works decent right out of the box (but required some z-axis calibration I realized several months later), in order to produce better quality prints it requires a lot of work that even after a few years I could not fully figure out. If you're looking to make one-off prints that don't require fitted parts, sure the print quality is good, but if you are trying to print anything that requires decent clearances and tolerances, this will not work for you. I tried to print so many models that just wouldn't fit together and I couldn't figure out why. The calibration tools don't work very well (why does the nozzle move more down than up when calibrating the z-axis?) and don't provide much guidance. The print bed itself is really never level and results in warped first layers. Despite many attempts at calibration and slicer tweaks, I could never get rid of the lip around the base of the prints either. However, there are even more downsides. Not only is this just a rebranded Flashforge Adventurer 3, but the printer requires that you use Monoprice-rebranded software for both the first-party slicer AND the printer's actual firmware, which are both out of date by sometimes a year. This means you can't use FlashPrint 5 and it's much better UI, you're stuck with the older version of FlashPrint that rarely gets updated, and will likely never be updated to the point of FlashPrint 5. Overall, this printer is just not good for beginners and, in my opinion, is not even worth the $400 I paid at the time even if I knew more about 3D printing. I've since upgraded to a Bambu Lab P1S which is slightly more expensive but the difference is night and day to me. Bambu Lab also now have the beginners A1 printer that's not only cheaper than this one, but probably works much better if it's anything like my P1S. Sure, a few years is a long time in the 3D printing marketplace, but that's all the more reason not to get this one right now. This printer almost made me quit 3D printing out of frustration because I just didn't understand why I was having so much trouble, so I cannot recommend against this printer enough.

Ich finden den Drucker top, genau richtig wenn man mit dem 3D Drucken anfängt aber auch, so wie ich, die Erfahrung mit Industriedrucken von Alphacam hat. Der Drucker ist von der Baugröße 150x150x150 genau richtig. Die Auswahl von Filamenten im Netz ist schon gigantisch, diese hat man mit den Industriedruckern nicht. Das hat auch etwas mit der Gewährleistung der Druckköpfen zu tun, wenn anderes Filament wie vom Hersteller verwendet wird. Ganz wichtig auch bei diesem Drucker ist, die Reinigung der Bauplattform. Man muß auch hier eine Reinigungslösung auf Basis von Ethanol verwenden. Am Besten eignet sich hier ein Desinfektionsspray für die Fläche. Am Anfang hatte ich auch das Problem, das sich der Druck bei großen Teilen gelöst hat aber nach dem Entfetten war das Problem behoben. Die Druckqualität ist für den Ersatzteilbereich im Hobby- und Hausgebrauch ausreichend. Für die 1 Kg Filamentrollen gibt es genügend freiverfügliche Adappter auf thingiverse.com. Ich habe den Drucker ausgwählt, da er eine beheizte Bauplattform hat und auch ABS drucken kann und dadurch gekappselt ist. Für Anfänger genau richtig aber auch für Profis gut zum spielen und ausprobieren daheim. Der letzte Tipp, wenn man 3D Druckteile dicht und mit einer glatten Oberfläche haben möchte, ganz einfach in ABS drucken und danach kurz in Aceton tauchen aber vorsichtig immer gut belüften.

After getting very frustrated and not knowing the cause of the poor prints, I re calibrated the hot tip to the bed and wow what a difference this made, as you can see from the pictures linked the first 2 are epic fails, the 3rd if one of a test print i did and the result is way better and at the base slicer settings. I would most defiantly recommend this printer to any one wanting to starting 3d printing, just make sure you calibrate the hot tip, i used the tip leveling paper i got with my other printer,all you have to do is to move the hot tip from a negative number to a positive and then bring it down a bit at a time until the paper just grabs the hot tip. It should be around about +0.2-0.3 IMO. One other note one of the fans is a little noisy but not to bad. AAAAA+++

Overall I'll give this printer 5 stars, it has everything I was looking for - enclosed (we have curious cats that would try to help) - prints PLA and ABS - almost fool proof design I have done about 10 prints, had two failures, but those were newbie mistakes I made. There are some small issues with this model which I'll point out. - The internal spool holder will only hold 500g spools which are hard to come by. To use the common 1Kg spools, you need to print an external spool holder and drill a small hole for the filament to go in. I've attached a pic of my spool holder which attaches to the side of the unit. Work great, no problems. - The touch screen is not as responsive as it should be. When you press the screen, wait a second for the screen to go to the next menu, otherwise it will queue up the additional presses and use them for the next screens. This tripped me up when loading the filament, I would press start, then press the start again thinking I didn't press it right, but the second press would be applied to the next screen which caused the loading of the filament to stop. - Instructions and user manual are lacking. But there are plenty of resources on the Internet to supplement them.
