What it does

  • Automatic bed leveling. One-click calibration levels the print bed without manual adjustment.
  • High-speed printing. Reaches 600mm/s maximum speed with acceleration up to 20,000 mm/s².
  • Quick heat-up. The nozzle reaches 200°C in 35 seconds.
  • Filament monitoring. Detects when filament runs out and lets you resume printing after changing spools.
  • Power recovery. Resumes printing from the last recorded position if power is interrupted.
  • Open design. Works in well-ventilated spaces without an enclosed chamber.
  • Interchangeable nozzles. Supports 0.4mm nozzle for standard materials and 0.6mm nozzle for carbon-fiber composites.

Power and warranty

The printer has a 50W heating element and reaches operating temperature quickly. Build size is 220x220x220mm. The listing does not specify power consumption, electrical requirements, or warranty details.

Good to know before you buy

  • Material compatibility. Prints PLA, PETG, and TPU with the standard 0.4mm nozzle, or PLA-CF and PETG-CF composites with the optional 0.6mm nozzle.
  • Open-air operation. Requires good ventilation and is not fully enclosed, which may not suit environments with drafts or temperature swings.
  • Setup time. Takes approximately 10 minutes from unboxing to first print, though this does not include assembly details.
  • Nozzle temperature limit. Maximum nozzle temperature is 280°C, limiting use with high-temperature materials.

In the box

The listing mentions a removable dual-sided PEI steel plate but does not provide a full contents list.

Who it suits

This printer is best for users who value speed and want minimal leveling hassle. It works well in maker spaces or workshops with ventilation. It is probably not ideal for people who need to print larger objects, work in enclosed spaces, or require support for specialty high-temperature materials.
