K2

I don't think anyone can answer this one for you. You need to ask yourself why you want to start printing. There are pros and cons to consider. Putting a CR-10 against any of these is like Putting a 1995 Honda Civic against a 2025 Tesla. I learned printing on ender 3s and cr10s.. Compared to the new

I have three Kobra Xs and they are amazing printers. As soon as the S1 max is available I’m getting it and getting rid of that Creality k2 Pro. I’ll never buy a Creality printer again.

I've bought 6 different 3d printers in the last 18 months with the Creality K2 plus being the absolute worst and expensive for what it was (thankfully I sold it). My elegoo cc1 was a better all around printer than that hunk of junk.

K2 Plus is horrible and it doesn't seem like you need the large bed or multicolor system. For your use case go high quality with a smaller bed and your premiums to look at are the Bambu X2D, heated chamber, reliable, appliance like, second nozzle can be for support material and could always add an A

Totally agreed. I got rid of my X1C and P1S prematurely after the H2D was released. I was hoping for a much bigger build volume, so I picked up the K2 Plus. I said the same thing - it's straight up hot garbage. The touch input is laggy, the CFS seems nice but sadly for me it was just trash. I've had

My personal opinion, the K2 series is okay...I added microswiss hotend and r3men bed (stock was a taco). Now keep in mind that k2plus was a preorder model. Over 2000hrs on it. Plus4 is absolutely amazing at every material I've thrown at it stock, has all the creature comforts and pretty much no VFA.

Bro. I love my ender. But the K2 is not gonna be drastically different If you’re tired of messing with it. Why would you get another creality

Ideally you want the variance under your usually layer height across the bed. My usually layer height is 0.2mm on 0.4mm nozzle. From your post I gather you already tried adjusting the knobs under your bed. That is a great place to start. But ultimately the aim with adjusting the knobs is to get the

It's leagues beyond your old Neptune but it's definitely on the "fiddle with it" side of the reliability curve for modern printers. Have a look at the Creality and K2 Plus subreddits to see what I mean. Taco beds, broken extruders, etc. I returned mine after a few weeks of wildly inconsistent first

I have been…tempted by Sovols since I’ve heard they’re based on Vorons but they’re one of the brands that my friends have had issues with. One of them bought an SV08 for large format prints and sank a ton of money into it trying to get it to bed level correctly and it just could NOT get a print off
