There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
As expected there was a learning curve at first.
Assembly was not too hard. I tried to fallow some YouTube videos. Many had their own versions of beginning adjustments, and tricks to delay breakdowns. It ended up, that I took about twice as long assembling it as was advertised.
I have owned it for about 1-month now. I have printed 20 objects.
When the adjustments were correct, and the program compatible, the printer worked well. (I adjusted the speed a bit slower. The “print head changed directions so fast, that I did not have a solid enough table to stop vibrations.)
There was one thing that puzzled me.
Using the exact same Gcode. program and printing the same part one right after the other, the parts ended being about .05mm different in size.
I like the self leveling feature, and the ease of use of the printer in general.
I don’t know what other machines are on the market, but I’m impressed that the machine that I got has worked so well at such a reasonable price.
This printer really went above and beyond my expectations of not only a low cost printer but an FDM printer in general. I got into the printing world by purchasing a resin printer that Amazon had on sale. I thought I would really enjoy the hobby but the extensive pre and post processing of those prints as well as handling toxic chemical turned me off completely. After a month I figured printing wasn't for me, but I started looking into FDM printers(which this is one, filament based instead of resin) and decided to on a whim buy a low cost but well liked printer. WHAT A DECISION! This printer completely opened my eyes to what I thought 3D printing would be like. It's so much fun! the resin printer's build plate was way smaller and in general more ideal for miniature models, whereas this printer (Ender 5) has a huge build plate and can print just about anything to great results. So if you are turned off my resin printers and you're not sure if printing is for you , I suggest returning your resin printer and giving FDM a shot because it's a whole different experience. Being able to simply pull something(maybe pry is a better word) from your build plate immediately after it's finished and admire it is really still amazing each time I do it.
Ender5 : The setup on this model wasn't bad at all, there's a few videos online you could probably search for to give you an idea of what to expect, but out of the box the directions do a pretty good job of guiding you through it. I would definitely recommend checking out a video because you are almost guaranteed to have to adjust something structural on this machine right out of the box. It's nothing major and doesn't require any technical skills but if you aren't looking for it you could very well slam your machine together incorrectly and have problems down the road you can't diagnose because you started with a bad structure. For me the top rail box would lay flush on the unit. If I didn't know to look out for possible adjustments then I very well may have just muscled down the top screws and call it a day, but I knew to check all my connections because all the reviews and videos told me to. I saw that a mount in one corner was tightened down from the factory crooked and caused the top piece to be uneven. So I loosened the necessary mounts, leveled it properly, and then tightened. The top mounted flush as it should and that was that. It was a minor inconvenience but knowing to look for these things is invaluable. Aside from that the build went very quickly and I was printing immediately.
Printing:
I adjusted the bed to what I thought was level and began printing. I never bothered with the CReality prints and started with some facemask ear savers. I noticed no matter how much I adjusted the bed it never quite felt level. After some prints I accidentally broke my Bowden Tube so I had to order a new, and decided to upgrade. I bought a Capricorn Bowden tube, All-Metal Extruder, and also got the Creality Glass bed. Those three upgrades turned my stringy few first prints and turned them into something I could be proud of. After installing the glass bed I realized my initial build plate was warped, which made proper leveling impossible but the glass bed cleared that up. I have to use a glue stick now (just cheap purple Staples glue stick)and haven't had any adhesion issues since starting that. Printed Bed struts to help with keeping the bed from moving while printing and it made a world of difference. This printer really prints with amazing quality and detail. After the few upgrades I made I am more than happy about this purchase and would recommend this printer to anyone looking to get into the world of FDM printing.
Summary: Awesome printer for the price. Recommend upgrading to Glass Bed, Capricorn Bowden Tube, and Metal Extruder.

Summary: Awesome printer for the price. Recommend upgrading to Glass Bed, Capricorn Bowden Tube, and Metal Extruder.
1. Good packaging, easy assembly. Instructions are lacking so go to Youtube to watch some assembly videos. Checking ALL screws/bolts/nuts is a MUST. I had several loose components that may have rattled themselves loose on the printers journey from China.
2. Before you level the bed or even attempt to print check alignment of all components. I used a square. I also noticed that the x-axis was skewed over 3mm (one side of the gantry was higher than the other). Again, not instructions of how to trouble shoot this. Youtube to the rescue.
3. Software is straight forward.
4. First print. My first 4 prints failed due to bed adhesion. I printed the included "pig" model in PLA. About 10 minutes into each print the raft would start flexing and partially peel off the build plate. Soon after it would pop and slide off: Filament Spaghetti. Assuming you level the bed properly (I did), the issue with the "Pig" print was solved by applying a thin layer of glue stick (the purple stuff our kids use school) before starting the print.
5. Best results: I'm using HATCHBOX black PLA (bestseller Amazon). I get the best results (14 prints/40 hours no fails) with 200C extruder, 60C bed, 3-6mm raft or brim and a THIN APPLICATION OF GLUESTICK for every print.
6. Recommend: There are several free modifications (all on Thingiverse) I'm in the process of printing for the CR-10v3. Some are, in my opinion, mandatory. The filament runout sensor is in the wrong place. It causes the filament to bind when pulled off the spool. I printed out a bracket that let me mount the sensor on top of the extruder, then flipped the spool holder facing forward. The filament now had a direct path through the runout sensor into the extruder; no binding.
All other mods deal with cable management and non essential things.
7. Overall: Not "out of the box" print ready. Simply stated, plan on spending a couple of focused hours with assembly, "preflight" and research. My experience was enjoyable, only because I was aware of most of the issues I encountered BEFORE I decided to buy. As of now (Jan 21), I have the printer running nicely without failure (related to the hardware - I've made mistakes in model processing/slicing that resulted in messy prints). Once you have the CR-10 set up, the degree of your success will relate to printer setting /slicing/etc.
A good machine for someone who likes to tinker a bit and has time to finetune.

Já imprimi várias coisas e sem nenhum tipo de problema.
Veja bastante vídeos de como imprimir, configurar e desenhar as suas próprias artes.
Eu uso somente PLA PREMIUM, tentei ABS mas não gostei do material e a impressão fica muito difícil, pois ele precisa de uma impressora fechada, pois a mudança de temperatura faz a impressão ficar quebradiça!
Dica:
Um upgrade indispensável e a troca da placa principal para a versão v4.2.7 que deixa a ender 3 silenciosa a ponto de você ouvir somente as ventoinhas...
O conjunto também vem com uma certa quantidade de filamento, porém não em uma bobina, que seria bem mais fácil a utlização.
No pendrive e cartão de 8gb que vem no kit, tem um software da Creality para fatiamento das peças, porém nada impede que se utilize o Cura ou o PrusaSlicer.
Já tem um arquivo de gato da sorte já fatiado preparado no cartão para ser impresso.
O único ponto negativo que levanto é a tomada da impressora que não está no padrão brasileiro.
Atenção ao switch da tensão da impressora. Minha rede é 110V, ela veio em 220V, então só trocar a posição dele.
The auto bed leveling feature is a highlight, making the initial setup and ongoing use much smoother. This feature really adds to the overall ease of use, although I must mention that the assembly can be a bit challenging. But once everything is set up, using the printer is a breeze.
In terms of noise level, it’s generally acceptable. However, for those sensitive to background noise, it might be better to place the printer in a separate room.
The build quality and design are okay - nothing extraordinary, but it does what it’s supposed to do without any problems. And when it comes to value for money, I definitely think this printer is worth it. It strikes a perfect balance between quality and affordability.
I haven’t come across any significant downsides yet, and when I was originally setting it up I faced some issues with the nozzle but I reached out to customer service and they were super helpful and sent me a replacement nozzle.
In summary, the Creality Ender 3 Neo is a fantastic choice for anyone looking into 3D printing, offering great quality prints, ease of use, and good value for the price.
