Great customer support, solid printer!
EDIT: 1/3/17, I have now had the printer for over a year now, after I got the problem fixed when I first got the printer, I have not had any issues since. The printer is still amazing and my projects have gotten larger as well. If you want a printer that will last, this is your guy! Because of the customer support I originally received and not having any issues since then, I have adjusted my review from 4 stars to 5. I have added updated 3d printed photos
12/16/15 I have had this printer for roughly 2 months now, after 2 weeks, a fan on the bottom of the printer started making a grinding sound when the printer was heating up though would stop after 15 seconds, on week 3, the right extruder died and could no longer heat up. Flashforge was very fast at sending me a replacement printer, I have had my new printer for about a month now and I love it. The printer itself feels very solid and the print quality is fantastic. Having a heated bed and sd card reader are huge selling points. With the new printer I got, the left and right extruder were not level with each other so when printing, I could only use the lower extruder, though I watched a youtube video and was able to get it fixed.
I uploaded some photos of prints I have done, given google and amazon will reduce the quality of the photos, but the prints did turn out very well. If you decide to go into 3d printing, I would recommend using simplify3d software instead of the default program they give you, it really does help your print quality. So far I have printed in abs, pla and petg and so far I have had no issues. I would recommend anyone thinking of getting this print to just go for it, I have designed a few 3d models now, which gives you endless possibilities of what you can make!
