Never had a 3D printer before, so if you're looking for a super technical review then I won't be able to help. But... For a first time user, it really wasn't bad to build, about 10 hours in total. Instructions are good. Tools that come with it are not. Having the proper tools would have saved me a ton of time. Then after initial calibration... It's basically been running non-stop (Literally). Running just fine with PLA (Haven't tested other materials yet), overall no complaints. A few failed prints but I'm willing to bet that's more me not knowing the limits of a 3D printer than actual faults of the printer (Who knew you couldn't print plastic on thin air and expect it to stay there?) The display is... Dated to say the least (Looks like a LCD display from 20 years ago) but that's not a big deal. And considering that's the biggest gripe I have with the printer... Very happy with it overall. Although the display is dated, Prusa's slicing software is not... And even for a complete novice like me it's really easy to use and tweak. And the auto bed leveling is so nice, did one calibration when setting it up and it's been printing fine without any tweaking ever since. And the best part is... Down the line if part of the printer breaks... Most of it you can just 3D print, and Prusa will give you the gcode to do it. So you can literally have spares of every (plastic) part just sitting around in a box somewhere and it'd cost you next to nothing. And most of it... Is plastic.

First I bought an Ender 3 V2 and that worked OK for about 2 weeks as long as I managed to get that first layer to stick. Then I learned about flexible Filaments and wanted to try those, so I returned the Ender 3 V2 for the Ender 3 S1 Pro. The S1 Pro worked well for about a week then at around 3 to 4 hours into a print the hotend would smack into the left rear corner of the print, knocking it from the bed. Spent a week trying to figure out the issue then sent that back defective. Finally decided to just buy this Prusa. The price was hard pill to swallow, but this thing just works. The bed sheet it comes with is awesome for small detail PLA prints and got a textured sheet for PETG. First I printed all of this printers PETG printed parts for backup, a dragon with moving joints, a …………and on and on... The think is been going almost non stop since I got it. It only failed do to my mistake in the slicer were something needed a brim or support.

I took my time and spent 12 hours assembling the printer. While waiting for it to arrive, I downloaded the manual and read it thoroughly so I had an idea of what to expect. I also watched a few YouTube videos showing the complete assembly that were particularly useful. I had one question for Prusa that I submitted by email and received a clear and concise reply within one hour. It all worked flawlessly after assembly, but final tuning of the print head Z offset (Live Z) had me confused. However, I posted my questions to the Prusa Community forum and they were extremely friendly and helpful and had me printing flawless models in no time. Highly recommend this printer. The print quality met and exceeded my expectations. The company and community support is standard setting.

Assembly took over 20 hours and it was an exhausting nerve-wracking experience. Every bolt presented another challenge. I broke 2 plastic parts during assembly, and customer service was very helpful and responsive through their chat system. I lost one spacer, and although there were many spare nuts and bolts - I had to make a fake spacer out of washers and superglue. After assembly, I plugged it in and nothing happened. Customer service had me open the power supply to check the fuse - and I found the power wires weren't connected properly, an easy fix. Setup and final adjustments went quickly. It is now printing most of the time, and turning into a true workhorse. It is the printer to have if you want to print something.

I’ve owned 2 other 3D printers before this; one of them was great but had the lifespan of a housefly and the other was DOA. So, I figured at nearly $1000 the Prusa, coming from Eastern Europe and not China, would be the 3D printer for me. Nope. It came as a kit, which means hundreds of bolts, nuts, plastic and metal pieces in a box. And, if I were rating the kit, it would get a 9+/10. Every piece was in a labeled bag and the book that directed the build is gorgeous. Assembling this device is slightly difficult because it’s a bit fiddly: I’d give it a 7/10 difficulty rating. I believe even a beginner can assemble this printer if they’re very careful and very patient. My rating has nothing to do with the build process but I believe that Prusa did a great job in creating this kit and it was worthy of a word or two of recognition. After completion, the prints don’t stick to the bed. They get drug around by the nozzle until they’re a mess of plastic fibers and not a cohesive model. I tried everything:. Wash the bed, check. Use a glue stick, check. Adjust the Z-axis in the “live-Z” process, check. I did get one model to actually stick to the bed and print but the print quality was very poor. In conclusion, even though I enjoyed building this kit and know, because I built it, how to fix some issues by adjusting gear mesh, belt tension, etc. even when it works properly, it just sucks. And for almost $1000 it COMPLETELY sucks.

The Prusa i3 MK3S+ is an excellent printer, and probably the best I've ever used. Aside from assembly, I've barely have to do anything to it to get great quality prints. The only calibration changes I've had to make thus far since assembling the device a few months ago was to adjust the z-axis due to changing out the sheet from the factory smooth steel to a satin sheet. It's the closest I've come to a hassle-free 3D printing experience and is a huge step up from my Ender 3. Since this is a kit, you are required to assemble the entire printer from scratch. This cannot be understated; you will need to assemble and tune every single piece of this printer yourself. I'm a fairly decent DIY-er and have followed complex assembly instructions in the past; this kit still took me about 8 hours to completely assemble and calibrate. Thankfully, the provided instruction manual is extremely well written and provides detailed instructions, photographs, and tips as you go along. As long as you follow the manual, you won't have any difficulty trying to decipher the steps, it will just take time to get through all 100+ pages of the manual. All that being said, You can purchase fully assembled printers from Prusa3D directly, but I'll talk about that more later. Their PrusaSlicer software pairs really well with this printer; doubly so if you use Prusa3D's in-house filament (dubbed "Prusament") as the profiles provided in PrusaSlicer for their materials are really well tuned. I've been using their PLA and PETG and haven't had to make any significant print changes in the slicer to get my prints to come out clean. I can't stress enough how plug-n'-play it all is once you get it setup. The hardware is also very moddable; there's a huge community surrounding this printer so there are lots of upgrades available (though it really doesn't need much). So far, all I've really done is connect a Raspberry Pi Zero W with PrusaConnect to add networking features to the printer, which has done great so far. I do have one gripe with this product, but it's more because of this specific seller on Amazon and less with the product itself. As of the time of writing, if you order this kit from Prusa3D directly, you'll have a 2-3 week lead time before your kit arrives, but it'll only cost you $800. If you order through Amazon, the seller has applied a markup of $150 to that. When I ordered the product, my estimated time was 3-4 days, but as of right now the estimated time is about the same as that on Prusa3D's site, so I'd strongly suggest purchasing it that way instead of through this seller. Additionally, you can also purchase the printer fully-assembled from Prusa3D with about the same lead time for $1100, so you'll want to do the math to determine if the 8+ hours assembling the device is worth the $300 price difference. Overall, this is an incredible printer. Even though I paid a markup to get it sooner, I'm extremely happy with the final result. For first-time buyers of the i3 MK3S+, I would suggest getting the kit version of this if you have the time to set aside, since it will teach you every little detail of your machine and will make future troubleshooting much easier for you. For existing owners looking to start a print farm or just have more than one printer, I would probably suggest getting the fully-assembled printer from Prusa3D directly to save time. Pros: - Extremely consistent, high quality prints - Minimal tinkering required once assembled - Good upgradeability options - Excellent technical documentation and support - Trouble-free slicing and printing if using PrusaSlicer + Prusament - Easily replaceable parts from Prusa3D's site - The kit version will force you to become intimately familiar with every component of the printer, making future troubleshooting easier Cons: - Kit takes an extremely long time to assemble (8+ hours) - Seller markup is not worth it since the estimated delivery date is almost the same as the lead times on Prusa's own site.

Ok, so I've had two of this model. The first one had an issue with the extruder body. As I put it together, a nut stripped out the hole and I couldn't get it to go in or out so I couldn't assemble the extruder body. I returned it because I paid so much money for it and it was defective. SOOO, i thought, MAYBE if i get a second one that problem won't exist. Well, guess what. The exact same nut stripped out again so once again I couldn't complete the extruder body. The second time; however, I thought maybe if I contact their customer support I could just get a replacement part so I used the customer chat service. I told the rep what happened and he refused to send me a part. So, I returned it again. I'm not sure why the rep wouldn't send me a replacement part that probably cost about $0.01 to make and maybe $0.25 to mail it but he wouldn't. Oh well, don't spend $0.26 and lose a customer and the $1,000 you made. Too bad I really wanted to use this and it looked like it was a good printer. I'll never find out now because I'll never buy another one. More than likely, it was just a series of bad events, but it left a bad enough taste in my mouth that I just threw up my hands and said, oh well. We're done. Hopefully, no one else has this problem. EDIT: Prior to returning the device, I tried the chat again and was connected to a different representative; who, also refused to send me a replacement part. I just don't understand why a company would refuse to send you a replacement part. I mean, if you use plastic in the main body of the printer, don't you expect the plastic to fail sometimes? I mean, it's not metal, it's plastic. Oh well I guess!

Honestly I run a print farm with cheaper printers and end up spending so much time tinkering and fixing parts all day. I'd rather spend that time modeling or focusing on the business side instead of printers all the time. Everywhere you look everyone recommends these printers I've wanted to order them but couldn't really find it reasonable to wait 2-3 months for them. I finally noticed them here on Amazon and just thought it was another reseller so I hesitated. I ended up buying and contacting Prusa support through live chat and they assured me these are covered with their warranty and are directly sent to Amazon by them. I don't know about other listings but I know this one for sure is covered. I was able to register my printer serial number on the Prusa website. So if you ever have any problems as I saw a review here the guy said he had problems, you could get live support to help you fix it. It seems he attempted multiple things himself without actually getting the advice from Prusa. The printer works great and I don't really have to sit there and watch it or be worried about it not finishing a job. Assembly took longer than expected for me and putting the nuts through the printed parts was overall the most tedious part. I think these printers are worth $700 but $900 + tax for you to also assemble is quite a lot. I think it's only reasonable for me because I run a business and the money I'll save will end up paying for the printers in the long run. The time wait of 3 days on Amazon as well opposed to 2-3 months is also a big plus for a business. Overall I'd recommend this printer mostly for business. I think as a hobby printer it'll be nice but not worth the price on Amazon. I'd rather mess around with other printers and try out cool upgrades and mods if I'm doing it as a hobby.

Llevo un par de años de haber incursionado en la impresión 3D y desde que que escuché el nombre de Prusa, esperaba algún día contar con el "Santo Grial" de la impresoras. Son caras con respecto a la media que se oferta en Amazon, pero siempre los comentarios son muy buenos. Temeroso de que fuera un clon chino decidí comprarla. El envío llegó antes de lo previsto, perfectamente empacada, y todo evidencia ser la original enviada desde la República Checa vía USA. De entrada, al abrir el kit, tuve cierto desencanto por la cantidad de piezas impresas en otra impresora 3D (acostumbrado a Ender que son de aluminio), sin embargo el procedimiento de ensamble, a pesar de ser laborioso, es impecable en los detalles y en la precisión de ajuste de todas las pieza. Es una extraordinaria experiencias el armado. Pero lo verdaderamente sobresaliente es el software de autoajuste que lleva incorporado. Desde la primera impresión, la calidad es extraordinaria. Si alguien quiere dejar de liar con temperaturas de filamentos y ajustes de camas de impresión, desperdiciando tiempo y material. esta es la mejor opción. Muy recomendable.

非常に良いプリンタです．私が気に入ったのは次の3点です． ■1. 構造が分かるのでメンテナンスがスムーズ ばらばらの部品からプリンターを組み立てるキットになので，組み立て終わった後にはプリンタの構造が自然と頭に入っています．そのため，フィラメントが詰まったり，ベルトが緩んだりといったトラブルが発生した場合にも自分で容易に対応できます． 本家のショップには部品がいろいろ売られているので，部品が故障した場合も修理が容易です． なお，組み立て自体は，私の場合は合計10時間くらいかかりました．届いたその日から使う，ということは難しいように感じますので，そこは留意が必要です． 組み立て作業自体は，付属している日本語の冊子がとても分かりやすいので，スムーズにできると思います．精度がいる作業も有りません．(精度は剛性とソフトキャリブレーションで担保) 余談ですが，組み立てマニュアルが冊子になっていると，完成まであとどのくらいの作業がかるのかわかるので地味にありがたいです． ■2. 印刷品位が素晴らしい 3D プリンタのスペックというと，積層ピッチや対応しているフィラメントの種類等が話題になりますが，そういったスペックが同じプリンタと比べても綺麗に印刷できます．組み立てていて感じたのですが，プリンタを構成するフレームの剛性が非常に優れており，そこが大きく寄与しているように思います． 海外では Best 3D Printer に認定されている機種ですので，検索するといろいろ例が出てきます．複雑な形状を印刷されたいかたは参考にされると良いと思います． なお，印刷するモノによっては Simplify3D というスライサーソフトがあると，品質を詰めやすいです． ■3. 拡張性がある 機能アップグレードのオプションパーツが用意されているので，長くつきあうことができます．本機は MK3 というバージョンですが，旧機種の MK2 には MK3 相当にアップグレードするオプションが販売されていますので，この機種の後継機種が出た場合にも同様の対応を行ってもらえることが期待できます． また，MULTI MATERIAL UPGRADE 2.0 という最大5種類のフィラメントを使い分けながら印刷できるオプションも用意されています．これを使えば，普通のプリンタでは出力できないカラフルなアイテムを印刷したり，サポート材だけを水溶性の材料を使ったりといった事ができます． 以上，大きく3つの特長を記載しましたが，注意点もあります． それは，現時点で日本語での情報が乏しいことが挙げられます．国内向けでは発売が始まったばかりでまだユーザが少ないのが原因です．ただ，海外ではメジャーな機種なので，英語のブログやフォーラムを怖がらずに読むことさえすれば，そこにはいろいろな知見が溜まっていますので，使いこなすのはむしろ容易． 組み立て式ということもあり，やや敷居が高いように感じられると思いますが，思い切って飛び込んでみると想像以上に良い世界が広がっている機種です． オススメです！

Bunun yarı fiyatına belki daha da azına aynı kalitede baskı veren 3d yazıcılar bulabilirsiniz. Prusa'nın size vaadettiği şey güvenilirlik, istikrar ve kullanım kolaylığı. Bir kere kurduktan sonra sürekli bebek bakıcılığı yapıp ayarları ile oynamaya çalışmadan istikrarlı bir şekilde aynı kalitede çıktılar veriyor. Step motorları, extruder'ı, sensörleri, bearing'ler vs. kaliteli olduğu için sessiz (özellikle stealth modda) ve hatasız çalışıyor. Fiyat/performans ürünü alıp her komponenti ayrı ayrı upgrade ederim zamanla uğraşmayı severim diyorsanız sizin için olmayabilir,ama bir kere kurayım, daha ilk günden kaliteli parçalardan oluşsun, hiç başımı ağrıtmasın diyorsanız Prusa.

Üründen memnunum. Sorununuz olduğunda ilgileniyorlar.

初の3Dプリンタです。 いろいろ迷いましたが、3Dプリンタの構造も学びたかったのでキットを選びました。 組み立ては、日本語のマニュアルを参照しながら、仕事から帰宅後に夜な夜な少しづつ行い、到着してから約１週間くらいで完成しました。 Z軸の調整でちょっと躓きましたが、無事プリントできました。 キットには、フィラメントが付いているので、すぐ試せて良かったです。 電源は、新しいものになっており、特に問題はありません。 画像は、シルバーは純正で付いていたPLAフィラメント、ブラックはSunluのPLA+及び、ホワイトは3D HeroのABS（ノズルは0.6mm）で出力した結果です。 ちょっと分り辛いですが、動画をアップします。ステルスモードは、本当に静かです。 前半がノーマルモード、後半がステルスモードです。 ちょっと大げさに言うとファンの音のみって感じです。 ノーマル(0.4mm）のノズルから、別途購入した0.6mmのノズルに交換する際に、スパナが接触してヒーターブロックの配線を断線してしまいました。本国サイトでスペア品を注文しようと思いましたが、ユーザ登録がされておらず注文できませんでした。 そこで、Amazonで売っていた24V/40Wの代替品を購入し付けてみたところ、復活しました。 尚、ユーザ登録は、まず、本国サイトに登録後、本国サイトで登録したメールアドレスを日本のサポートの方に連絡することで可能でした。 日本のサポートの方も迅速・丁寧な対応で、満足しています。 本当に良い製品だと思います。おススメです！
