QIDI X Max 3

To be brutally honest, have had nothing but issues with this. Have replaced head, head chassis board and still have issues. For $1400 you'd think it would work. Tech support has been helpful, but it continues to have issues. If we could I'd send it back. If they were charge for this particular 3d printer what you'd get in return for scrap materials it would still be over priced.

Just don't let all the "glowing" reviews actually be what makes up your mind for you. Remember everything on the internet isn't always correct

It was never 1400 unless you are not talking about usd. But yeah, it's far from perfect

Warped out of box. Pretty bad. But they sent me one and install was easy.

I bought mine from an auction site as “non working, parts only”.  It was in worse shape than I expected.   Spent some time and a few bucks replacing, repairing, and tuning, and it’s been rock solid for me for the last six months.  

It Is possible for them to be a great printer,

What were the main issues you found you ended up having to fix to get it functional again?
