> 24 hourIm in the process of running my 5th kg of filament through this printer. Ive used 2 brands of ABS and 3 different specialty PLA types so far with this machine. I am really impressed by the quality and consistency of the prints. No problems sticking to the build plate (plastic side of the spring steel mat that adheres to the magnets in the build plate). This machine is rock solid in every way (mechanically, and firmware stability). This is my second Qidi printer. My first was a Qidi 1 dual extruder. I still like that machine, but this X-Plus is so much better. The design is well thought out, the extruders are so easy to remove/swap/clean--they are modular, connected by a single flex cable to the machine (no more dangling wires to deal with). The toutch screen is very nice, and the controls are self-explanatory. Right out of the box, operation has been easy, without the need for glue sticks, tape, trial and error calibrations, or any other forms of voodoo most printers require. Qidi has worked hard improving their machines over time, and it really shows in this product. Yes, $1000 is a lot of money. But, you get a printer with quality beyond that price. You also get really wonderful tech support. They are pleasant, very outgoing, and really know their stuff. They treat the customer with respect, and assume you are intelligent and capable. They have no problem explaining technical details at any level you are comfortable with. I was surprised during my first interaction about this machine when I sent an email in the afternoon, got a detailed response that evening, replied to it in the morning, and got a response right after my reply. They must work 12 hour shifts! Here is my workflow, in case someone is interested: (0) From work.... (1) Design in Solidworks. (2) Slice in Simplify3D. (3) Power on the printer remotely using a WiFi connected relay I wired into Breakpoint Board. Qidi guided me through bypassing the Breakpoint Board in order to use an IOT power socket, but I found I prefer keeping breakpoint functionality (it remembers where the printer left off if power fails, or it is turned off during a print), and thats why I used a WiFi relay board. (4) Send the gcode file I created with Simplify3D to the printer via the Qidi Print software (I connect to my home network through a VPN, so everything is on the same subnet), and select the option to print. (5) Watch the action using 3 different cameras (Wyze Cams). (6) If anything unusual were to happen, I can remotely switch the power off, and optionally resume the print when I get home. Not Octoprint, but it works very well for me, and its very simple. Excellent build quality, design, tech support, and value! The Qidi X-Plus does everything I want, and does it well.

> 24 hourHave used the X Plus printer for over two years. Worked great until we had a power outage while printing a build. Called Qidi for replacement parts and they responded quickly and with great options to fix our machine. Went ahead and bought an X Plus II while I was at it given how much we like the X Plus.

> 24 hourOut of the box, amazing. It was definitely one of the best beginner 3D printers Ive gotten to use and enjoyed using it. The support was phenomenal they new what needed to be replaced and even walked me through it step by step. Very pleasant to work with (And to them again thank you!). Print quality is pretty great out of the box, capable of even printing filaments like nylong, wood, metal, ect. To be honest the only take away that this printer was the build plate, I wish it were bigger. Than again it is market average. This will make any maker happy with their purchase.

> 24 hourThis printer is awesome... incredible print quality, and the range of materials due to the high temp capabilities is another big plus for me. Tech support is good and they have videos/detailed instructions for most operations and common problems. They are based out of China so direct communication may not always be completely fluent, but not bad. For the money especially this printer is hard to beat.

> 24 hourI purchased the X-Plus after I had had the X-Smart for about a month. Both printers work great (good slicer software, easily navigable touchscreen, intuitive design), but the customer service has by far been the best part of this purchase. A friendly customer service rep follows up any question with a detailed response that involves images and videos tailored to your issue. Absolutely no regrets with this purchase.

> 24 hourBought this to create prototypes for my rod building business and have not been disappointed. Recently had a minor issue and sent an email, got a reply and a warranty resolution in the same day. Great Qidi customer service.
