Just what I expected!

  I had put off buying a 3d printer for years, because I didn't want to have to deal with all the adustments and setups to try and get a decent print.  I read about the Prusa mini and how user friendly it's supposed to be, I read all the reviews and think this is the one I finally pull the trigger on.

  Got mine delivered today, put it together, ran the calibration and printed this.  Just me a 3d printing novice and my mini.  Oh wait, it's a mini plus, it got upgraded since I ordered it.

  Could not ask for a better experience.

RE: Just what I expected!

Welcome to the community! I've had my Mini for just over 6 months, printing can be a bit of a roller coaster but I hope you get as much enjoyment from your printer as I get from mine!

RE: Just what I expected!

I agree pretty happy with ours had it nearly a month.  The issues I have had have been solved through the help articles and I can always fall back to the support team if I have any major issues. 

Printed in PLA and moved up to ABS (In an enclosure) with no issues although to be fair the parts are relatively small.  Currently printing a 170mm tall part (my largest ever) in some PLA I bought 5 years ago the last time I had a go at 3D printing.  Did some tests with it and it seems ok so thought I'd smash through the rest of the roll. I've got some flexible projects I want to look at so that's probably the next trial. 

Very happy
