PowerSpec Duplicator i3 Mini 3D Printer

This 3D printer was received on a Wednesday afternoon. Friday morning, its LCD display was dead, the 3D printer was dead as a door nail. It was returned to Amazon for full credit. I then picked up a PowerSpec Duplicator i3 Pro printer. For another $90 or so, I got 10 times more printer than the "mini". So, on that basis, I don't recommend the "Mini", since for a bit more, you can get a much more superior 3D printer from the same mfg.

I've had mix results from this product. I've been through three. The first was under warranty and had electrical. The second one came dead, and the third is still up and running but showing its age (2 years old). Comes with basic supplies. And is a nice product to start with. It has been able to preform some detailed prints at a respectable rate. And was bought on sale for around 120 at microcenter. I would wait for it to go on sale before buying it here.I use it mostly for making miniatures and terrain for rpgs.3.5/5

I bought mine elsewhere for $119. For this price point I'd look around some more though. But if you are just over the $100 mark this little machine is a work horse. I print about 10 hours a day on it almost everyday. I've not had a single clog or issue.The base works great with using glue stick for adhesion. The only real issue with it is that the nob is crazy sensitive and easily moves up or down one without you moving it much. Personally I took off the nob on it and just move the metal nob by hand and get a better result.At a lower price point I highly recommend this printer as an introductory machine for PLA printing. It takes any filament I throw at it and takes very little to level it properly.
