I'm a total n00b to 3d printing, and spent ages researching which printer to get. What a minefield! 😩 A few people said this one is decent, and I decided I just needed to jump in otherwise I'd never buy one! Took delivery of the V3 SE today and just did my first ever 3d print of the cat that comes with it on the sd card. Had a few issues to begin with it not sticking, but then I realised I had loaded the wrong spool and was using ABS filament. Swapped it for PLA and it worked first time. I learned more from just doing that one print than I did from watching dozens on videos.
Is it an issue that some of the numbers are blue when it does the bed levelling? The cat model is pretty small so it was fine, but would this be an issue for larger prints?
No. The printer is designed to accept a certain amount of inconsistency with the bed level, and given that you can't adjust the bed screws (easily anyway), a couple of blue values shouldn't be too much of a problem (my front left corner alway seems to be a bit high) As far as the print sheet... I had terrible luck with prints sticking TOO well on the stock print bed, but purchased a low cost magnetic PEI sheet and have GREAT success with it (with PLA... I've never printed any other type of material)
It is very sticky. However, I was about 10 and a half hours into a 13-hour print, and it came off🙁. I, however, think that it was because I was using a brim, which can easily come off, and it was a top-heavy project. I should have used a raft. Just saying, it can be very sticky, but you still need to figure out the best way to get bed adhesion
Excellent coverage. I have one and it is a dream to use. Out shines my S1 Pro. The bed, however, never lets my prints go… so, I upgraded to a PEI plate from Amazon.
Thanks Bryan for your thoughts on the V3. We bought 2 of them and our first time playing with 3D printing. The biggest gain I see with this $200 class printer is auto bed leveling feature, can't beat it. Totally enjoy it and running a raspberry pi using Octoprint. Very much appreciate your vids - I have learned a lot, especially being a Mac user.
Update; after watching your video and other reviews I bought 1. It has been quite dependable after a rocky start. 1st print, the cat, great. Next print? Destroyed the sticker in the built plate. Put my Biqu B1 SSS and replaced this with a Creality PEI coated SSS. Haven't looked back since. So thank you for your videos. They help me a lot.
This is definitely the best printer you can get to 200$. Direct drive, dual lead screws and auto bed leveling are huge features to get at that price. Of course there are better printers around if you want to spend more, but I think having a competent printer at a low price is important for people just getting into the hobby. The only real missing feature is the filament run out sensor, but maybe that can be an up-sell component that creality can sell to those who want it. I don't think it is a necessary feature for most people. And as for the tool tray, sad to see it go but the other features more than make up for it.
Love his hair! Bryans a straight up rock star. I wanna see him head bang heavy with those awesome locks while beltin out an insane solo on a 3d printed electric guitar.
The only true con I really picked up was the lack of run out sensor which the instructions say the board already has space for you just have to install one. Besides that the other cons felt like you were just searching for something negative to say about it. In my opinion the pros very much outweigh the cons and overall it's a very polished product for $200US.
Ok. Im ordering it right now. This will be perfect in combination with the raspberry pico to make cool machines! The printer will come in tomorrow with 1kg black polymaker pla. Really excited to make my first print!
Hi Bryan, thanks again for a really informative video, I also bought two of these printers and use them every day. I have been printing models for at least 8 years with various printers.
Yeah but it's cheap and easy and Klipperable for the future. What would you recommend for a a first timer looking to dip a toe into the 3dprinting pool?
@@richardbertacchi5016 One for example Artillery Sidewinder X2 quite easily Klipperable (300x300x400 build volume,) ~$ 200 or X3 $ 220 (Build volume 240x240x260. This came to market 09/2023 so not yet easily Klipperable but most likely quite soon) free shipping (Amazon/Aliexpress). filament sensor etc. Creality (and others) keep re-inventing the wheel with minor changes with very small price variation.
Did you expect anything else at this price point? All other configurations are much more expensive. This is a perfect entry level printer, especially for those that are new to 3D printing and are low on budget. If those people get some experience thanks to this low cost start, and they have made sure they like it, they can always step up to a more expensive printer type (like core x-y).
I think this is a first or beginner printer, with a lot of features I wish my first Creality had, like the probe and z calibration. I think in this price range not being able to modify is not a bad thing, I spent too much money on my Ender 5 that I wish I would have used for a better printer.
I think the hardware is great for this printer. But I'm saddened by the lack of software control offered by creality... And the difficulty in being able to modify the firmware to unlock the printer's potential. Hoping someone at MriscoC is able to crack this machine and offer an Ender 3V3 flavour of firmware. Hell... I don't even mind losing the z-offset sensor functionality. It's a minor feature given how NOT HARD it is to set z-offset with a piece of paper.
Yes!! Thank you! I've been saying this since I got my E3V3. In fact... I've tuned my E3V2 with klipper and have it running beautifully now, and admit that my V2 is my go to now (after a long time of being frustrated with it). My next project will be to try to get klipper on my V3 and see how well that works.
One thing for you, if the creality slicer is being faulty on Mac you can get cura or some thing Ik cura has that printer on its system idk if you knew this or not I just felt like telling yoy
Prints perfect ABS items if it's in a sealed box (makes perfect temp for drying the fillament and 3D-print) included with Air vent Active Carbon Black filter, and I'm using Linux Mint FreeCad and Prucer and Cura slicer.
I don't have a direct drive printer, so this is tempting for that reason. And it seems that the filament path is better than with the CR 6 SE and the Ender 3 V2. But rather than being another printer, if I bought this one, I'll probably never get the V2 running to my satisfaction. It does make me think about adding a strain gauge to set the Z axis offset for my CR 6 SE.
Creality have produced the worlds first plug and play printer. I've got 2 and I cant be bothered with endlessly tweaking it so it suits my needs perfectly.
My only gripes are that they changed the nozzle type in this printer vs the v2. The threads are longer. It's not well documented in the literature either. There are actually 3d printed parts on the blower fan nozzle.
Id love a ender 3 professional version Something like a machined cast bed with embedded magnets and their flex plat e Strain gauge and bed probe 9x9 mesh and extrusion frame. maybe even up a a 300x300. Id pay good money for an out of the box setup like this
I dont recommend this printer they really need to update there firmware and make it come with the PEI buildplate, also finding spare parts is a chore and there isnt really a way to upgrade your hotend so your limited to 250 degrees with the ptf tube. Id recommend the Sidewinder x3 pro its got the added bonuses of a larger touch screen, dual sided PEI buildplate , a slightly larger build area , better cooling fans, 300 degree volcano quick change nozzle, filament runout sensor, dual Z motors and a way cleaner look without cables hanging out for just 20 dollars more than the v3 se. Only problem with that machine is I cant find where to get the interchangeable nozzle replacements and no oone sells them in Canada for a fair price :(
I've been waiting anxiously for your review of this printer... However I think you've been generous to it. Granted, I understand this is a 200 printer... And in that light: This is a good printer crippled with BAD software. The creality cloud software is sorely lacking (multi colour print anyone?) Currently there seems to be a lack of ability to update it with third party firmware. Still waiting on support for MriscoC or even a decent Klipper cfg to move it over to that. (spoiler alert... I'm not smart enough to come up with one on my own). Even support for Prusaslicer or Cura seems to be as-yet missing and I'm hoping the community steps up to the plate on this one. So my bottom line is... Great hardware (though a PEI sheet upgrade is almost a necessity... The stock print plate holds prints too hard! I ripped a print apart trying to get it off the cold build plate).
Gotta have dual part-cooling fans or at least dual ducting. Otherwise, not for me. I did put an Ender 3 MAX hot end assy. on my 3V2 - MUCH better steep-angle printing.
Nice review. Auto bed leveling with auto z offset and a decent flex plate make this the best cheap printer for newbies in history. How many Ender 3 Pro and Ender 3 V3 owners either returned or shoved their printers into a corner to be forgotten when they couldn't get a print to stick? It just needs an all metal hotend to be perfect.......I can live without the filament sensor.
I think the z-offset sensor seems to be an odd priority for creality. Setting Z-offset with a piece of paper is just too easy to need to solve with additional hardware. I wish they would have put that extra effort into a filament runout sensor and better firmware. Doesn't really negate the great printer hardware they have here. It's just the software that limits this thing.
Hey Brian, can you send me a link to that shirt? It's based on some content I created several years ago and it's like to track down whoever it is that's making money off my content.
Hi! I'm sorry somebody swiped your content. My wife bought it for me about a year and a half ago. She says it most likely came from www.theinstantmessage.com/ but they don't have it listed any longer. Redbubble has a "My Dad Jokes are Tearable" shirt, but it's not identical to the one I have. ( www.redbubble.com/i/t-shirt/Dad-Jokes-T-ShirtMy-Dad-Jokes-Are-Tearable-T-Shirt-by-DavisBeck/98475427.IJ6L0 )
Looking forward to unboxing my new SE. I'd rather not have to modify the printer so that is not an issue for me. I'm not going to miss a drawer as I am going to re-purpose our old baby change table as the table for this printer and it has lots of drawers. It would have been nice to have a filament run-out sensor but one is only going to get so much on a budget printer and I am liking the set of features this one has. My previous budget printers are both smaller. I like that on this one I can easily swap in a PEI build surface. Now I got to go get my space ready.
@@thehobbist5544 It has been great. No issues at all so it is my best printer so far. I have only used PLA and TPU. The only thing I have on it that is not original is a textured PEI plate.
Have you had to do anything with the PTFE tube yet? I had a slight clog this morning and the tube popped out when I pushed the cleaning tool through. Wondering if I can just put the tube back in after removing the blockage or just replace it with a piece of Capricorn tube. Hopefully it's not something that's going to require a complete disassembly of the direct drive assembly.
Direct drive stepper right in front of the nozzle (and away from the center of gravity) with a single wheel to support it at the bottom coupled with the infamous Creality ptfe hotend aka THE BLOB MONSTER should provide an enjoyable and reliable high quality printing experience for a long time... /s :P This machine is a maintenance nightmare with constant quality drop... I wouldn't use one for free let alone pay for it.
Hey man! Let me tell you. I have a Prusa Mk2.5, but my brother has bought one of these myself. This thing has been printing for around 300 hours, and there hasn't been a single failed print with it, it prints as good as my Prusa, for much less. If this would have been out when I bought my MK2.5, I probably would have went with creality. Anyway, while you're right. The PTFE hotend isn't the best, It can't print ABS/ASA, but I also think that the target demographic of this printer won't even touch anything beyond PETG
@@Fejszi I'm glad there hasn't been a catastrophic failure in 300 hours with your brothers machine but I was talking about print quality degradation which usually happens before it gets to a total print failure. I get that the target customers are newcomers but a printer like this can turn many people off in the long run if the person that bought it just wants to print stuff hassle free instead of tinkering. Let me know how it does in another 300 hours from now :P
Do you think the ender 3 v3 se will ever be supported by MriscoC firmware? I love the hardware profile of this printer... But I hate the fact that the software cripples it so much. Unlocking it's potential will require using customized third-party tools... But it seems like ender is not being very forthcoming about this possibility.
I noticed that my Ender 3 v3 SE prints are slant. I checked the printer's alignment and noticed that the z axis is not square (it is tilted backwards). I found a y-axis support kit to install on Aliexpress. There are also some options on thingverse. I'm still deciding which option I'm going to test. Any thoughts?
This is unrelated to this video. Have you tried the Creality k1 printer? Would you be able to do a video on how to root the k1 so I can calibrate the e steps and perform a pid auto tune? These were things a checked once a year on my Ender 3v2 or whenever I changed a component
Excellent video. Subbed! Maybe someone can help. After several prints, my computer won't let me open the D drive until it is formatted. On the Creality SD card, there was a 100 + page detailed manual. I have looked high and low and can't find this manual online. The only one I see is the 26 page manual. Anyone have a link? Thanks in advance.
Thank you for the review. I noticed from the video that the motherboard has a GigaDevice chip. Wondering what firmware (Jyers, MRiscoC Pro, etc...) you'll be able to run on this?
So far, neither. I'm waiting patiently for someone (much smarter than me) to unlock the potential of this great printer by creating a MriscoC flavour for the V3
Hi Bryan. I hav a 3v2 with the Ender direct drive. I love it. So much faster and cleaner prints. But: all of a sudden after warming up the nozzle will move on bed and stop. For some reason it is not getting gcode. I just put a new board in it (4.2.7) and it still will not print. I have checked all the wiring to the best of my ability. Can you possibly tell me where problem might be please ? Bob kearbey.
Maybe the E-step calibration is not done that great. I guess they use a generic value that's the same for all printers. I wonder if you fine-tune it a bit more you would get better results. Also - If you use the standard temperature settings for different types of filament, you get some slight problems. It's always a good idea to print a temperature tower every time you get a new filament, and especially if you get a new printer.
Mine lasted 5 weeks. Did a print. Waited a couple of hours to durn it back on. Just got blues screen nothing else. Talked to help desk and they were not able to suggest anything to fix it. Just past Amazons return date
They did allow me to return in under the warranty, but charged me a restocking fee, so they could ship it to someone else. Bought a 2nd one. Z movement rumbled loudly. Bed leveling tried to drive nozzle through bed. No adjustments helped. Boxing it up toda to send it back to Amazon. Saw someone else reviewing this and his was DOA, couldn't even get Creality to get back to him. New ELEGOO Neptune 3 Pro FDM 3D Printer will be here tomorrow.

This is unrelated to this video. Have you tried the Creality k1 printer? Would you be able to do a video on how to root the k1 so I can calibrate the e steps and perform a pid auto tune? These were things a checked once a year on my Ender 3v2 or whenever I changed a component
Is the Rocket Plane model available to download form somewhere, or does it need to be purchased?
You call it the Creality cat but its the golden lucky waving cat you can find in most Chinese stores.
Dam its amazing what you get these days
Excellent video. Subbed! Maybe someone can help. After several prints, my computer won't let me open the D drive until it is formatted. On the Creality SD card, there was a 100 + page detailed manual. I have looked high and low and can't find this manual online. The only one I see is the 26 page manual. Anyone have a link? Thanks in advance.
What was the cause off the issues on the calibration cat?
hahahh i love the tshirt
what the difference in the creailty 6se compared to the crealty3 v3se Preston
What's the purpose of the microUSB?
Can ender v3 se use abs filament ?
Have u tried it
Thank you for the review. I noticed from the video that the motherboard has a GigaDevice chip. Wondering what firmware (Jyers, MRiscoC Pro, etc...) you'll be able to run on this?
So far, neither. I'm waiting patiently for someone (much smarter than me) to unlock the potential of this great printer by creating a MriscoC flavour for the V3
Perfect shirt for you, lmaoooo
What motherboard does it have? If it is the 4.2.7 board would that firmware work on other models?
Hi Bryan. I hav a 3v2 with the Ender direct drive. I love it. So much faster and cleaner prints. But: all of a sudden after warming up the nozzle will move on bed and stop. For some reason it is not getting gcode. I just put a new board in it (4.2.7) and it still will not print. I have checked all the wiring to the best of my ability. Can you possibly tell me where problem might be please ?

I really do not like the all plastic body on this with all the heat that is around, asking for trouble fire wise in my book.
Whats the difference in the creality ender 3v3 and the creality ender 3v3ke for bigginers
The KE is just upgraded se. faster speed and can print more materials. Has a touch screen and a filament runout sensor
Id say the under extrusion is quite bad
Maybe the E-step calibration is not done that great. I guess they use a generic value that's the same for all printers. I wonder if you fine-tune it a bit more you would get better results. Also - If you use the standard temperature settings for different types of filament, you get some slight problems. It's always a good idea to print a temperature tower every time you get a new filament, and especially if you get a new printer.
Great video! But is it just me or does the video seem a bit out of foucs?
First! 🎉

Mine lasted 5 weeks. Did a print. Waited a couple of hours to durn it back on. Just got blues screen nothing else. Talked to help desk and they were not able to suggest anything to fix it. Just past Amazons return date
They did allow me to return in under the warranty, but charged me a restocking fee, so they could ship it to someone else. Bought a 2nd one. Z movement rumbled loudly. Bed leveling tried to drive nozzle through bed. No adjustments helped. Boxing it up toda to send it back to Amazon. Saw someone else reviewing this and his was DOA, couldn't even get Creality to get back to him. New ELEGOO Neptune 3 Pro FDM 3D Printer will be here tomorrow.
Between this and the anycubic kobra 2 neo, which would you pick? They are the same price.
