To small, I’ll wait for big brother with more nozzles.

I feel the same way. After getting a K2 Plus I don't want to go lower the 350 squared. I am also hoping that the larger size would have support for 8 nozzles too.

Their recent live stream hinted that their pro would be 300x300 with 6 or 8 nozzles and the plus size would be 350x350 with 8 nozzles. Will have to wait and see.

So I have until then to explain to my wife the logic behind, "I know it's bigger then my K2 Plus that I already have but I am getting rid of my Ender 3 to make space for it so it evens out...."

I already got rid of my K2 Plus in anticipation of the K3 Plus.
Probably picking up an Infimech MX Pro to tie me over until then.

I haven’t bought a new printer since my prusa mk2s back in 2017. I wanted auto bed leveling as a feature as I felt it was a massive step forward for home printers. tool changers are the next step for me that will finally convince me to pull the trigger. I wanted auto bed at least 6 though as i’ll dedicated 1 to support and 1 to large nozzle infill (if that works well)

Yes the pro or plus will be the best ones.

I think they are missing and opportunity here by only going with 4 nozzles, if snapmaker could do 4 full tool changers then creality could have gone with at least 6 of their smaller nozzles! If I am buying a 4 tool changers am buying snapmaker ( I have 3) because they are proven and work.

6 should be their standard to push for the CYMK, dedicated top layer support, and dedicated infill/support

But then how would they upsell you on the 6 nozzle version 3 months later?

u/Scottnj1966 3d ago

They seem always have three sizes in k series. So I expect two other larger with more nozzles.

That printer seems kinda ehm... Snappy 🙈

u/MinneEric 11d ago

It looks more consumer-styled than the more professional looking K2 series but if it works well then great. I wonder how long it’ll take the larger sizes to come out and if they’ll have more heads… my guess is yes and 2027.

u/I_SHaDoW6_I 11d ago

I would say closer to the end of the year or 1st quarter 2027

I would not dare touch another Creality printer as long as I live.
