Received it and finally had the opportunity to assemble it after the holidays.
What a great little printer it is! Great build quality, great assembly instructions, and everything worked right out of the box!
Go check it out! and if you need a small printer - it will only print 12x14x12cm in PLA - I think it is a great contender!
I ordered a heating plate to install a warm bed to be able to print ABS, but I'm not sure I'll install it. At least not now. It just runs so well and produces such nice parts that I'm not sure I want to change it.
If you do assemble one, be sure to check the additional assembly instructions at their website, which I wasn't aware until after I figured out how to assemble those extra parts.
Here are some pictures of the final product.
Once I finished assembly, I wasn't very happy with the black display being left there in the hole, so I designed and printed a little frame for it, which I think really ties the whole thing together. And the precision on the printer is so good, that it fit right in. It's a tight fit! It was a bit difficult to take it out from the base plate, and it broke a tiny bit, which I glued back in place. Might print another one soon.
The files can be found here on the google warehouse.
I would advise to remove the display for installing the frame.
