Is it good For a absolute beginner?
A shopper
on May 16, 2019
BEST ANSWER: In a way it is good for "absolute beginners" because of its price. It's performance is good but not excellent, but the major drawback is the size of its build plate and its capacity for making larger builds. If this restriction isn't a problem for you, it might be what you're looking for. On the other hand, once you start using a 3D printer, you will want to make larger objects, so consider this issue. You may want to save up a bit more and buy a printer with larger build capacity.

I would say yes, I have had mine for about 3 weeks and the quality of prints is consistently very high. It is very easy to get started making your first print, just unbox, plug it in, install the micro sd, install the filament and press start print on the menu.

Yes. I am an absolute beginner. This is my first 3D printer ever. In other words, I have no other experiences to compare with. Having said that, I find the MP Mini Delta easy to operate and the prints I am getting are beyond my (inexperienced) expectations.

Maybe if you are comfortable configuring software. I have a video about this on the DrVax youtube channel. Just goto YouTube, search for DrVax and look at the recently uploaded videos.

This does require some troubleshooting skills or at least access to the wiki for this printer, but with a little persistence works well.

BEST ANSWER: Thank you for your question.
Either of these printer would be great for beginner but the Mini V2 would be slightly easier because there is no mandatory editing to the start GCode in cura.

Does this printer have the ability to print wax designs? (Wax being the filiment material) I am looking to make jewelry designs out of wax that will eventually be put into metal casting. Wondering if this is a good option for me. Please let me know ! Thank you

BEST ANSWER: All of our printers, included the Mini Delta, are only capable of printing with PLA and other various plastic filaments right out of the box. In theory it is possible to print with wax, but would require some alterations to the printer in order to get the most out of it. If you have any further questions you can contact us at 3Dprinter@monoprice.com.

Good starter system
Simple to use. Print quality pretty good. No on/off switch. Only some microSD cards work. Print surface developed minor warp after the first couple of prints. But can't beat the price.

Easy to operate. Great quality prints.
This is my very first 3D printer ever, so I don't have a point of reference to compare against; but I expected a more delicate machine, a more complex usage and more rudimentary quality prints.
However, the printer is solid and sturdy; its operation can't be simpler; and the quality of the prints is better than what I expected. The resolution is amazing!
Highly recommended.

Great printer, has a few flaws, still well worth it.
Amazing printer.... Monoprice still hasn't gotten back to me on the RMA.Buy the glass print bed off Amazon. The alluminum print bed bends and you loose like a third of your printable area.Use the cura settings on the wiki for this thing.When you get it, tune the belts, your prints will turn out better.All that said, I still rate it 4 stars and highly recommend.
