This is my first 3d printer and I'm definitely no expert in 3d printing... yet...

Anways, I was expecting it to need some assembly but nope. It just comes in a big box. It can be a little awkward getting the printer out, but it was VERY well packaged and simple to setup. Pull it out of the box, remove all of the foam from the print area and filament bay, plug it in and flip the power switch.

It does take a while to fully boot. I was a little afraid I got a dud, but the screen lit up with its first time setup after about 10-20 seconds. The first time setup did a good job of walking me through. The only issue I ran into was I thought the bed was auto-leveling, but the first time setup had me run through it manually. I might have accidentaly hit a wrong button.

Manual leveling was okay. The touchscreen means you'll probably miss-press and change the step size. There's 3 different step sizes for manual leveling and and buttons for the step size are right above the up/down buttons. A better UI would have moved them further apart. I know.. nitpick.

The first time feeding filament in didn't feed it all the way to the print head. I had to unload and re-load the filament.

Also, the printer doesn't automatically pull an IP address if hardwired. You have to go into the network settings to enable it.

I did a small cube as a first test print with the default settings in FlashPrint MP and it came out fine. I then did a test print of Benchy as big as the print area would allow and it did fine as well.

Printed a few more things and failed specacularly, but that was because I was playing around with the slicing settings in FlashPrint.

There's 2 nitpicks that I have: the camera, quite frankly, sucks. And the LEDs on the print head are... okay. The camera is a 720p 15hz (maybe 10hz?) webcam. You can pick out major features, but you can't rely on it for detecting a print going wrong. It just doesn't have the fidelity. Also, the LEDs on the print head blow out the image, especially if the printer is in a dark room. It would have been better to put LED strips on the ceiling of the printer to illuminate the entire print area. The print head lights are great at illumating what is happening directly ahead of the nozzle, and not much else.

It's been the perfect 3D Printer so far. I've had it for about 3 weeks, and it's been printing almost nonstop. I haven't had a more trouble free printer. I love the Wi-Fi printing. Basically plugged it in and started printing.
