Title: High quality prints/Fast/reliable/easy instructions.
Review: This product has 3 different print modes and is extremely easy to set up just like all the Anycubic printers. And I love how it is so easy to connect to your phone from the Anycubic app. You can also get a camera for it. Make sure you read the instructions very carefully though and more than once. The printer also works very good with all filament types and is very adjustable with the settings. The print quality is much better than the Anycubic Kobra 2 neo

Title: What a fantastic entry level 3D Printer
Review: This printer is shockingly fast and capable for an entry level device. It was surprisingly easy to assemble and start printing objects right away. The auto-leveling makes the whole process so much easier. I can’t say enough good things about this printer. Is it the most sophisticated device on the market? Of course not. Is it a wonderful value for a basic entry level printer? Absolutely - in fact, it actually exceeds all expectations.

Title: It's less than okay
Review: Update: From 3 stars to 1 starThe magnetic bed cover broke after just a few uses. I am very disappointed in this purchase.If you want something that is *okay* and will save you money, I guess, go with this. Especially if you plan to print primarily in PLA. I primarily print in ABS and have been using 3D printers for 2 years going on 3. This printer is tricky to work with for ABS. Anycubic will tell you all these awesome filaments their machines work with but leave out how difficult it is for some of them to print it. If you're going to or want to print a whole lot of ABS, go with the i3 MEGA S instead. This printer is printing small test prints pretty well, but once you start putting bigger files that have more curves to them, you run into big problems.BAD INSTRUCTIONS! - While it is extremely easy to set up in less than 30 minutes, the instructions are incomplete to where to put a couple of the wires.JUNK WIRES! - Just putting the axis at home made two of the wires pop off. Consider upgrading pieces or use a strong glue to hold them in place if you're brave.Also, the box it came in? Had one short measly piece of tape across the top and my package was delivered opened because the rain got under the tape and there wasn't enough tape to really stick down to the cardboard to begin with.There was already blue PLA in my nozzle, I am sure it was just to test the machine and make sure it runs... however, it would have been smart to clean it out before sending to a customer. We don't all like PLA.The good: the print resume feature, the easy leveling, slightly bigger build surface than other machines in it's price range, you can change nozzle temp while it's heating up(this is especially helpful if it won't keep a consistent temperature, you can actually slice your file to be a higher temp then change the temp on the printer when it gets to the one you want, this way you aren't waiting more than 5 min for it to heat up and be ready.)The bad: the menu knob(would rather the touch screen, the knob isn't always feasible when you need to make quick selections), the very simple-minded menu, flimsy bowden tube, not doing well with ABS, noisy, not printing files from certain slicers, packed terribly, some prints that print immaculately on other Anycubic printers look like a hot mess on this one, incomplete instructions, bad/loose/cheap wires.If you are buying this to use for a business and are a beginner, I will tell you right now, it's not as easy as other reviewers have made it seem. I am only one filament type in. Maybe the printer doesn't like this one? I will update if anything starts to get better.... looking like a possible return already, sadly. Probably going to get an Ender3 or Prusa Printer next. GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU WHO FELL FOR THE REVIEWS LIKE I DID! I don't know what kind of magic the people in the reviews are working but it must be good! lol

Title: Great value for a beginner printer
Review: This is my 6th FDM printer in the past few 5 or 6 years. I wanted something to print things while my CR-10 is printing big stuff, so bed size was not as important as price and speed. I will no longer use a printer that does not have:1. Direct drive extruder2. Magnetic build plateWell, the Neo 2 has both. Standard.Assembly was so easy. Half of the steps of an Ender-3 and only 7 bolts for the entire thing because everything was pre-assembled. An 8 year old with lego experience could assemble this guy in 20 minutes or less. Note - the wire harness has one plug that is not used, the instructions conveniently leave that out of the manual (they don't tell you to put it anywhere, its just ... there).The menu on the control module leave a bit to be desired, as it is entirely ison-based. Still, responsive and adequate.The prints are fast and the quality is awesome. Tested against my CR-10 it prints about 2-3x factor set at 150 mm/sec. Self leveling means I can set it and forget it - I don't have to play the "watch to see if I need to tweak X-axis by 0.99mm or not" game.It is quiet. Although not as quiet as an Ender with the quiet motherboard, its between that and an unmodified Ender - so thats nice.It does everything I wanted it to do, at a sub $200 pricepoint. It probably lacks the support community the Ender-3 has garnered and it likely will not have as many modifications available, with a magentic build plate, self-leveling, and direct drive extruder I cant think of anything I'd add right away, anyhow.

Review: Genial es la palabra, mi primer maquina, y estoy feliz con ella, me divierto mucho, hace algo de ruido cuando la dejo trabajando toda la noche, pero tolerable, muy buena calidad, todo es cosa de ajustar e ir aprendiendo a sus detalles, ya le compre muchos colores, y boquillas para trabajar con otros materiales, el tpu es un material que requiere boquillas de 0.8 o de 1mm, y una velocidad muy lenta, veremos como me va, pero con PLA y PETG es una chulada, la experiencia es importante, y no hay muchos videos en Youtube de esta maquina, pero si de maquinas en general, y me han ayudado muchoSu consumo real (le puse un medidor de Kwh) y es de 0.140kwh, es decir que cada 10 horas de uso son 1.4 Kwh, para que tengan en mente que su consumo de luz es algo interesante.

Review: Soni am pretty new to 3D printing and I had this printer up and running with my first small print Job finish before end of day. The anycubic software was easy to use with out much knowledge of 3d printing. Would suggest playing around with prints before you get into Amy bigger projects.The auto leveling works very well. So far I am very impressed with the quality and speed of the prints. Research on what your printing and filament is the key to ensure to have your settings correct. I have had few fails but that was due to user error and tests of the printer. Very happy with results over all. For any cosplay enthusiasts. I would go with the max.

Review: La impresora no está en ningún laminador más que en el de la marca, se atasca hasta con el filamento de su propia marca, es demasiado cara para ser una impresora tan mediocre
