I've owned an Ender 3 for a few months now and wanted a new printer so i could print all the things. The Ender 5 seemed ideal with a magnetic bed and stable frame giving it the ability to print great at higher speeds. It was easy to put together and level, I've been running 24/7 with 0 modifications.

Out of about 3 other brands that I've bought, this Creality is the best so far. The spool is wrapped perfectly and doesn't bind at all (compared to my other spools). The PLA itself is very good, I usually run 190 degrees on my Ender 3.

This is a very solid, well-built printer, and I am very happy with my purchase! It took a little bit to figure out that for some reason the SD Card port on my unit is upside-down. I’m not sure if this is normal but it’s not a big deal now that I’ve figure out how to get it read the SD card. Unfortunately the card that came with the printer became corrupted after a few prints, but they’re cheap these days so it wasn’t an issue to get another one. As soon as I tried printing with the new nozzle I couldn’t get any filament to come out and discovered it was all leaking into the hot end and around the threads of the nozzle even though the Bowden tube was pushed in all the way. I cleaned out the hot end and replaced the nozzle back to the original and have been able to make amazing quality prints again! I highly recommend this product but am a little leery to put any aftermarket parts on it without making sure they’re compatible first. Creality was also very helpful in addressing all my concerns with the printer and getting it working in spite of these minor issues. I would gladly do business with Creality again!

After a bit of bed leveling, this printed great. Well, with the pla they give you and the test file you get. I mean, I can clearly tell it prints VERY well even with a minor speed increase, but the test filament didn't even cover half the test object. GET MORE FILAMENT!

Leveling was pretty easy with the large knobs underneath. It was lowered about as low as it could go when I first adjusted so feel free to raise that sucker a bunch. Heated it up, moved the extruder up just a hair using the knob interface and went with a bit more resistance on the index card I used than I thought I needed. Worked fine.

Loading filament was more art than science. I cut the tip at a 45 degree angle and it loaded easier.

Definitely not quiet by any stretch of the imagination, but my workshop is in the basement. Close the door and it's all set. Doesn't bother me upstairs at all. My dog slept next to it and considering I finished the build at 11:30pm I fell asleep next to it as well in my deskchair.

Initially, I had a rough start with this printer. I took my time and assembled it properly. Bed leveling took a little time, but I got it dialed in and started sending test prints for further tweaking. The printer began rebooting and freezing mid print. I am hooked now. My family is hooked. Co workers too. The quality I am getting from my prints is amazing and it is a lot of fun. 3D printing is no longer just a curiosity for me. This will probably be a life long hobby now thanks to my Ender 5 Plus. I highly recommend this printer.

This was the first PLA I ordered with my printer. It was nicely wound, well packed and prints nicely. When I ran temperature tests it was fine across the board. I have printed through about 2/3 of the roll. I liked it so much I ordered their white. No issues with that so far. When I run out of black I will likely reorder this spool!

To be honestly, I was not expect that great quality as the price is such cheap, actually the price is main reason to trig me click "Pay" button and did not expect too much from this level price. But when I receive the product, the filaments are well grinded and organised. Printing result blows my mind , such smooth and beautiful !! I have couple printer already, Ender 3rp, CR 10S, currently I just got my new printer Sovol SV01 last month, and filaments works perfect well with my new direct drive printer Sovol SV01, high recommend, Good Job, Creality.

Stepper motor works great. New mother board also like new machine.

I was skeptical about buying this filament for a long time because I didn't know what to expect when it came to print quality and authenticity to actual wood. This filament blew my mind, It prints beautifully adheres to my printers bed with no issue and smells just like wood while printing. I did not notice any change in color of the wood from printing it at different temperatures it was pretty much the same color. The details in my prints are spectacular and it sands like regular wood as well, which is great because I can print at lower resolutions and just sand the lines down cutting my print times drastically.

We are enjoying using this filament for the first time. While it sands much much better than regular PLA, it isn't exactly like wood. If your settings aren't quite right, it's stringy compared to regular PLA but does rub/sand off easily

Quality is superb. This filament is really good, everything is super consistent and reliable. Recommend this, do not hesitate and buy it with confidence. Shipping was really fast.

The filament is very good quality. Fast shipping.

Having used a Lulzbot Mini 2 the Ender 3 Pro runs circles around it for a small fraction of the price. Assembly was a little rough but a youtube video bailed me out. Later found out instructions were on the included SD card. Printed instructions aren't so good. First print was one of the included Piggy bank gcode files which came out perfect after the bed was leveled. I did this with a piece of paper between the nozzle and the bed just tight enough for the paper to grip but still slip. I repeated the process 4 times until all four corners stayed the same. (manual leveling does sort of have a teeter totter effect) So repeating the leveling is necessary to overcome this. Honestly I prefer this method over the auto leveling the Lulzbot does.

They do include a small amount of PLA to get you started, which seemed enough for a handful of test prints. I purchased some PETG and am in the process of tweaking the settings with great results so far. Also included is a spare .4 mm nozzle. There are plenty of addons for this printer you can print on the Thingiverse site, which I plan on printing in the next couple of weeks once I get PETG tweaked to my liking.

Overall this is a great printer, Creality shipped it quick, and it arrived 3 days later from there warehouse in NJ. The extras I ordered however are coming from China so will take a little while. Would purchase this printer again.

very good quality

Super happy with this printer. Very easy to assemble. I added a glass bed as I was having some leveling problems with the removable magnetic sheet. I added some other recommended mods as well as recommended on many youtube videos. Once, I got the leveling correct, I have seldom had to readjust it. Took some tweaking with the Cura settings, but prints come out beautifully, especially at the 0.1 setting. Would recommend this printer to anyone.

This was my first printer and I loved it so much that I purchased the Ender 5 Plus on release day. If you run in to any issues, know that Creality support is there to help you and is very responsive.

Creality's Ender 3X is a very nice 3D printer for beginners. Easy to assemble and to upgrade, if need be. The glassbed is a very useful addition, however the extra nozzles included in the package are of somewhat poor quality. Maybe a slightly better extruder fan duct could have been included from Creality. However for 229 usd this printer was still a good purchase. I would recommend to anyone looking to try their hand at 3D printing.

I installed this in my Creality Ender 5 3D printer. I could not figure out how to flash the .hex file that Creality provides to it, and the source code they provide would not compile, so I installed Marlin 1.1.9 that YouTuber TeachingTech modified for the Ender 5.

It is amazing the change this has made to the printer! The fan is now the loudest thing. The motors are so silent now, when they move at print speeds I can't hear a thing. I never ever hear the extruder or the Z axis motors! I sometimes hear the x and y motors when they move from one area to another without printing, but the sound of that is still not even 1/4 as loud as the extruder fan. I set my print speeds to 50mm/s print and 100mm/s move. Now I want to do something about the extruder fan noise!

This made a huge difference for me because I live in a small apartment with hardwood floors. Sound travels extremely well in this apartment. I was previously afraid of doing long prints because the printer is too loud to sleep with. Last night I printed while I was sleeping and the only thing I could hear was the extruder fan, and it wasn't too difficult to fall asleep to that, and it did not wake me up! I simply woke up in the morning to a finished print!

I bought (*not a review sample) the CR-10S Upgraded version. Had it together in 15 minutes and printing perfectly with almost no adjustments (bed leveling is all). This is the model we at 3D Printing Club / 3DPC.tech recommend to everyone from advanced to beginners. It's also the first 3DPChoice Award Winning Printer.

The Creality3d CR-10S is my first 3D printer, I was very surprise how easy and fast is to assemble and have it working. Every part and every tool needed is included in the package. The printing process is also quite easy. I printed some 3d models I made in FreeCAD and I was very surprise with the result. So far so good.

Took some initial setup up and getting used to the leveling sensor, but the printer is great and very precise! Very quick to heat up too.

Creality3d CR-10S Pro is an amazing machine. It is very quiet and the auto level feature is a huge plus! I love the filament end detector too! I highly recommend this printer!

The printer is amazing. The steppers are so silent, that you can barely hear them. The only update would be great are the cooling fans inside the printer. Print quality is super!!! The only upgrade I have made is the filament guide to the run-out sensor.

Have cr10s4 and ender 3. so i order cr10s pro. becuse i hate something on cr10s4. cr10s pro have fix that problem, and now are that printer main printer, in my house

I am glad that i purchased this unit directly from Creality. The delivery was fast and the packaging was very secure. The build quality is really professional and the quality control is good. The instructions in the manual is very clear. The assembly only needs 4 screws and I love it. Bed leveling was really easy and the auto bed leveling is really fantastic. The heat bed was fast and with additional insulator included underneath the bed would be able to retain the heat and reduce energy consumption. Cable management is a big plus using a ribbon cable or IDE look a like cable which I really like it. Everything seems to be very compact and neat including the overall design. The touch panel is very responsive and the GUI is nice. OO..., Did i mentioned this unit has a loud speaker? :) Which is nice of cause. Overall opinion is that with the extra features included with this unit such as the thickness of the heat bed (more stable for bed leveling), the insulator attached to the bed, the heat pad, filament detection unit and better mechanism and electronic components, indicates that Creality really listen and care about their customers opinions and invested a lot in research and development. They have a fantastic sales and support team too. As a matter of fact, Creality has set a high bar in the commercial 3D printer market where in my opinion is good to be more competitive hence, a company that create values where not only care about numbers.

Great value for the money. After careful bed levelling it prints quite well just out the box and assembly. Minor problem - buildplate is wobbly on the guide profile (when pressing a bit left or right side of buildplate, it tilts aprroximately 3mm to the sides), so in fact bed levelling is needed before each print. It is a little annoying "feature".

I'm very excited about this printer because I read a lot before to purchase it specifically from Creality brand. So first and for most shipping within the USA was incredibly fast. I`ve got my order within 3 days. The packaging was very nice and well secured, assembly took about a 1 hour or more and immediately did several prints. And was impressed with this printer in real time because my expectation was fully granted with printers work!!

Right on time and the packaging was excellent, the silicone sleeve on the extruder hot end was a pleasant surprise! Thank you for the flawless purchasing experience. The only thing that I may have an issue is the print bed, it seems to be a bit dented in the center but I have to redo the leveling and measure it, to be certain. Hope your after sales service is like your pre sales experience!

Prints great and it was easy to assemble, what could you ask more? Had an issue with my bed being bent. Don't be afraid! Creality quickly fixed it by sending a glass bed.

The only problem I have, the printing bed is slightly warped (lower in the center). I'll order tempered glass, hope it will resolve the problem. Anyway it's a nice printer, especially for the price ;)

Everything is alright! Working flawlessly.

This is a great printer. I really took my time putting it together and it paid off. The software supplied is out of date, I downloaded CURA 4.0 and used the ender -3 profile. I like to tinker, so lots of upgrades and tips on YouTube. I have ordered a Raspberry PI and camera to install Octoprint. For $500 this will get you the Ender 5 and a lot of upgrades, you can have a lot of fun and learn 3d printing. The only problem I have had is with bed adhesion. Tried some tall prints and have had them topple. It is a learning process.

So far everything went perfect for me. Untill I switch to another filament, because the one that came with it I used it all. And since i have the new filament from another brand I can't get it to stick to the bed on the first layer. I also noticed the middle of the bed a bit lower than the sides so there is a small curve in it. But for being my first 3D printer I love it. I will just have to find a fix. I just orderd the BL touch, maybe that will help a bit. And maybe I will get a glass bed in the future not sure yet.

So far so good, best 3d printer I've had yet just make sure to check the nozzle and bolts on the hot end when assembling as mine weren't quite tight enough.

Have this printer for a while now and I'm very pleased I have hem. Esau to build, marvelous prints.

Great printer and great price! IMO totally worthy upgrade from Ender 3.

Pretty good p rinter, added a good amount of mods from thingyverse, now it is even better. The buildplate i dont like. Magnet seems fun at start but to easy to ahve air bubbles between it. Ruining your print. Ordering a ultrabase again, like i had on my ender 3.
