As always have a great day!
Thanks so much. Just got one for my granddaughters. Now I can't wait to get her going!
Hi Jeff I am a child and I find this 3D printer really nice wow thanks for reviewing this jeff
Nice stuff. All I had as a kid was Slinky. And Matchbox. Oh, and Playdoh. The times sure are achangin'.
Lol. Me too, I'm excited about the options yet to come. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 👍
3D printer is pretty cool! 💕
I'm a fan of 3D printers, I wish this one worked a little better. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 👍
Thanks for a really comprehensive review. The ads for this printer can be a bit misleading, showing multi-colour items etc. I’ll wait until the tech’s better before I invest.
Happ to help. There are multicolor machines out there but they come with a steep price tag. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
No, those are printed in multiple parts that slide together. You CAN print those things. Quite clever actually
at $300, I’d probably recommend an A1 mini for the same price and the bambu handy app for direct and simple printing. Not the same collated toys etc but a parent could easily help with setting up some models to choose from.
Thanks for the tip. I just picked up a core xy, retails for just under $400. Pretty cool machine. (Review coming soon) Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
Thanks for the review. I was concerned with the time it takes and whether it's strong enough to actually play with cause naturally that's what kids are going to want to do.
I think 3D printing is a lot of fun. That being said, kids need supervision when using 3D printers. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
Love the video!!! So helpful!!!! I was gonna buy one but it seems they’re not ready for kids yet.
Same, I was going to buy it until I saw this video! Thank you so much @JeffReviews4U!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. 😃 👍
@@Jeffreviews4u any recommendations on something for kids that is better?
Hey Jeff thanks for the video.. I got my daughter this and we are enjoying it on day 1. Had some good prints but more prints were bad because of the clumping issue like you had. We calibrate with the screw that raised the bed but it still did it not as bad. The bed not level is interesting.. did that work for you long term? Like you say no instructions was really frustrating.
Thanks!
Best tip I can give you with this printer is use a purple glue stick on the building pad, lasts for maybe 4-5 prints, then use dawn dish soap and hot water to clean it and reapply the purple glue, doesn't have to be a lot, just a thin quick layer. good luck
In my experience, I had to recalibrate and relevel frequently. I also bought a 4in roll of painters tape so I can swap out the build plate.
Yes glue sticks can help, there is also print bed adhesive that works too.
Can you tell me where to get the spool holder the attaches to the side of the printer?
If you can't find it in the toybox app, check thingiverse. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
I have one for over a year now. Do you have the magnetic sticky bed on it? Every time my son forgets to put it on the bed, it doesn't stick and globs up.
Yes the magnetic bed is attached. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
Well, that just talked me out of getting this for my kids.
Also, seeing the subscription and buying “bolts” makes me wonder if this is a never-ending money hole.
You don’t have to print those files, its optional. You could just print free toys from over the internet?
Can you use different filament that's not toybox brand
Yes, you need to print a different filament holder in order to use other types. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂
@Jeffreviews4u where can I get a different holder or can I just put the different brand on a empty toybox spool
I bought a Phrozen. But my wife could not stand the smell of the liquid so maybe I will get one of of these.
I was looking into those, thanks for the heads-up 👍
How hard is it to make custom designs?
If you have the right software, it's pretty fun. Definitely a learning curve. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
Is it true that most libraries (that still exist) have 3D printers for use, you just need to bring food (filament)? I agree, kids will not find this friendly at all. Nice review.
They don't have them in my local library, but that would be pretty cool. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🙂 👍
I was looking to get this for my son. But from this video it looks like if you want to print one thing you go through a few misprints first. It's not worth it if more than half the time you get mistakes and waste all that thread. I'll pass until the technology is a little better. The makers should hold off because that's not fair to all the kids that would be so looking forward to printing a toy or something only to wait an hour or more and find out it messed up. Real shame because i thought i found a toy my son would love but spotlight expect.
All 3D printers have a period of trial and error, but as you said, this would be very frustrating for kids. I think the ads are a bit misleading, especially since they show multi color prints. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. 👍
I got my son a BambuLab A1 mini with the AMS. Almost the same price as this minus the AMS. Works great on first try unlike what I'm seeing here. I guess you get what you pay for with these brands with no reputation. Toy Box seems cheaply made to me.
Can you import your own files from your computer, not ust your phone?
You have to use the toybox app. I don't think that there is a computer version of the app. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 👍
Another CZcams review does with an app called tricker or something
Okay great thanks .
Yes, you can import your own files and upload using the a web browser on your computer
Im glad you do these vids . I will not buy this printer it seems no bueno. Do you have a good printer you can recomend i want to spend less than 450.00
I've had good experience with QIDI 3d printers. That being said all 3d printers will have trial and error. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 👍
There are many options so much better than this for beginners these days. Probably Bambu A1 mini is worth looking at.
That or the full size now kids might prefer mini with ams to make cool colored toys otherwise take the build volume
The ender 5 pro is a beast!
help the 3d printer food is collapsing😭😭
this is not suitable for children. No way. it would have to be supervised, and an adult to troubleshoot. Most children would get frustrated very quickly, and if you believed the ads "its just going to work". I have 8 "proper" 3d printers, and the maintenance on a mini printer like this still exists.. replacing nozzles every month or so, dealing with clogs. The nozzle heats to 210 degrees... so lets hope the child does not touch it..... the dribbling nozzle is normal, and cleaning it at the start of each print is normal. good luck a child doing that safely..
I think your printers are just duds. My ender 3 V3 been runin no issues.
I never said issues.. I run 8 printers 7 x 24. As a business. There is maintenance.. that a kid of 8 would struggle with. There is managing a nozzle at 210 degrees. The number of much simpler "toys" that have an age limit due to dangers or complexity.. but don't see similar on their website.... the advertising for this is not being honest about any of this..
Im glad you do these vids . I will not buy this printer it seems no bueno. Do you have a good printer you can recomend i want to spend less than 450.00
I've had good experience with QIDI 3d printers. That being said all 3d printers have a bit of trial and error before getting it right. Thanks for stopping by and commenting 👍
