Difficult to master.
You could just use the supplied software and allow it to make decisions for you. You'll get models from the printer that you will need to clean up. Our you can try and understand what happens when printing and try to make life easier for yourself.
The machine is quite loud if you sit next to it, volume dies away with a little distance. I found it quiet enough to allow it to run overnight in another room.
It's very easy to set up, quick but if levelling and you're fine. Add some rain and you're away.
Try one of the supplied models - Eiffel tower takes 19 hours!
As usual for Creality, you get loads of tools in the box, scrapers, cleaners etc.
What you don't get are materials to clean the printer plate and print and the cutting box to finish the print. Buy some 99%IPA, an ultrasonic cleaner of about 700ml capacity, then build yourself a UV curing box with preferably a solar powered mini turntable. 5 mins in the IPA, then a few more hours in the UV and you'll get wonderful, detailed, smooth prints.
I love this machine, it really is very good indeed.

I purchased this printer a few days ago. It has been a dream to use. I would definitely recommend this as a great printer for anyone starting out with 3D printing or even for veterans that want a more compact and reliable unit. I am extremely impressed.The setup was fairly straight forward. All the tools needed are provided with the unit to complete the full setup. There are a few great youtube videos on setting up that you can watch as well if you need a little extra help. Very easy to use. This is not my first 3D printer, so I do have a little bit of experience with them in general. This is a very easy printer to simply start using. The unit itself is very sturdy. The hardware used is good quality. You will not find a better printer for this price. This printer exceeded my expectations on every level.

If you are someone who enjoys tinkering you will love this printer. Better print size and quality than everything in this price range. I was getting excellent prints day 1 after the two-hour process of assembling the printer. I followed a YouTube guide. I now have had the printer run for hundreds of hours and it is consistently giving me good results. There is a very active community for this printer at reddit.com/ender3 that can help troubleshoot and diagnose problems, as well as offer lots of advice. I honestly don't see why anyone would buy any other printer besides this one unless you're going to spend the money for a much higher end model.

Estuvo interesante la compra, barato más que en algún otros lugares y de buena calidad, ya lo he probado con mi impresora Creality 3D -3 y son buenas puntas y de buena calidad, un envió de solo 1 semanas con algunos días
Lo recomiendo!


The purchase was interesting, cheaper more than in some other places and of good quality, I have already tried it with my Creality 3D -3 printer and they are good tips and of good quality, a shipment of only 1 weeks with some days I recommend it!

this is really the magic plate solving all removing problems I had with the original teflon-like platform.

I put the tray on top of the old one and shifted the leveling sensor. I use 4 Maul 19 mm foldback clips to keep it in place and that's it. The best bed temperature for PLA for me is 56°C: a good compromise to stick well to the glass and to easy pull-out the print once the glass cold.

For me the PLA do not stick on it when not heated to at least 40°C.

I was looking to replace my damaged hot end fan, But decided to get my hands on another nozzle and fan assembly.
I made the right choice,
This hot end is great and holds steady at 250 degrees pumping out 300mm/s.
I found the part fan to be quieter than my original one, however the nozzle cooling fan was about the same.
Highly recommend this for replacement, or even a cheaper way of gathering parts for dual extrusion.

Es mi primera impresora 3D y funciona al 100% aunque claro que es mucho trabajo manual para ensamblar la y nivelar la recomiendo apoyarse viendo vídeos para estos dos casos anteriores el paquete llego perfecto a mi casa la cama de vidrio es una adquisición de si o si ya que ayuda a sacar las impresiones 3D más fácil y también le da mejor adherencia

I like the printer very much and the only reason for giving it 4 Stars is that the print bed grips the print too much and is very hard to get the print off. I bought the Creality glass bed for the Ender 3 and I recommend it very much. It's my opinion and the prints stick just fine to it. PLA sticks just fine without glue or hairspray.

This was my first 3d Printer, as recommended to me by a friend.

This is a fantastic starting point for anyone who isn't familiar with 3d printing, and is more than capable for advanced users.

Simple to assemble, and still purr's away nicely!

Preis / Leistung finde ich echt Top. Der Druck ist richtig GUT. Probleme hab ich allerdings mit der Z Achse... immer wieder 1-2mm Unterschied beim lvln. Das nervt. Bekomme dass Problem auch nicht wirklich hin. Beim Druck macht dies eher selten Probleme. Das zweite Problem ist, dass die Software leider nicht auf Deutsch ist.

mounted on a Alfawise u30 and works wonderfully! prints stick even with the bed turned off and really easy to take them out of the printer, recommended upgrade

These socks are great. They actually fit and stay on the heat block unlike othrr socks advertised for the Ender but are actually for E3D type heater blocks and tend to slip off

this printer is relay good and cheep also the shipping is fast secure and come right to your door ! very recommend

I order it like one year ago, the packeting was great and it came to my place totally safe. it was a little expensive then but now the price is really affortable.

This is my second CR-10 and I would recommend this to family and friends. I am glad that Creality finally are open source, way to go Creality.

Super machine ! Comme toujours la qualité de la marque est au rdv. C’est simple, efficace et bien fini.
Même si elle n’a pas de drivers type tmc2208 elle est plutôt silencieuse, il y a nettement pire dans les marques concurrentes.

Great price quality printer Very very happy with the product, fast delivery incredible printer, i love it, fully recommended

Great product. Worked perfectly right out of the box. Arrived really early as well and everything was in pristine condition.

great printer with good quality and print area. I only recommend to buy a 3D Touch to turn the print process more automated.

in the 2 years of using this printer, all I can say is this thing is wonderful. It is working beautifully in all these time.

today i received my last order ,very fast delivery ,good packaging ,the pla filament metal gold very good quality and all the stock for my ender 3 good price the pla filament is CCTREE 200 grams pack
thank you merci gearbest.

I am impressed by the quality of this machine, particularly for the modest price

Engine suitable for 3D printer
easy to plug in and immediately functional
I recommend buying the engine is of high quality

Augusztus szikrázik, a fénye mulandó,
egy pillanatra vakító lávaként megéget.
A fénysugár lassan minden színt átölel,
és kacéran egy zord, bezárt világot megteremt.

Came just as was describing, prints like a charm

i really liked the product,
came in time and it prints fabulously!!!

This printer is better than anything in the same price range. Easily upgradable. Would buy it again.

buse bien reçu je le testerai après noël j ai acheté une imprimante 3 d pour noël pour mon fils ….
