Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm hard on 3D printers. I buy cheap ($300-$500) ones and run them to death. Then I donate the bones to the San Diego Library's Maker-Lab for them to fix. I have also tried upgrades, and concluded they are difficult and unnecessary if you buy the right machine. The Anycubic Mega S is "The Right Machine". Here's why: 1. It heats up to 260 C. WITHOUT an expensive all-metal hotend upgrade. 2. The new Mega S model has a much better extruder than the original I3, for the same price. 3. The heated bed gets to 90 C easily WITHOUT a MOSFET upgrade. 4. They include an extra set of nozzles (0.4 to 0.8...a $30. value) and a completely assembled EXTRA hotend. Because you will want to mess with this printer like an erector set. And it STILL works after you, uh...take it apart. But then buy ANOTHER one because it just prints EVERYTHING (filament) so damn well. The second one, does not need upgrading, is what I'm saying. It just works great. I tried a custom-built $1300 American-made printer that sadly was no better, looked great, but just didn't run well and got a refund. This printer has nice little touches and is a tank.
