FLASHFORGE Adventurer 5M Pro 3D Printer, 600mm/s High Speed 3D Printer with Auto Leveling, Quick Release Nozzle, PEI Plate and Dual Filtration System, 8.7 x 8.7 x 8.7''

Bought for my son who wanted to get into 3D printing. I have experience through work with Prusa and Bambu products. Comparing this printer with those more expensive offerings, this Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro stands up very well, with much of the whistles, bells and functionality of others, without the price tag. It looks the part and is well made and worked straight out of the box. It was simple to setup (even by my novice son) who has already progressed onto more practical designs of his own after trying out a couple of Thingiverse's offerings within a week of ownership. He's already got a smooth PEI sheet as an additional purchase (note it is supplied with a textured sheet only). Would I recomend it, absolutely. Its excellent value for money with great performance, simplicity of operation and output quality.

This is my 4th printer, i have 3 others and out of the 3 ive only managed to print 1 cricut mat hanger, ive never been able to level them properly. Was recommended this printer and myself, my husband and my som love it so far. It was literally plug and play, other than taking out a few transit screws and loading tye filament, which was so easy and everything is all on the screen to guide you. We havent stopped printing yet. It takes the ball ache out of levelling as it does it for you and you can keep an eye on your printing on your phone as tyeres a built in camera 📷 inside to show you the progress. Its also quite faster that the others ive got. We havent stopped printing already recommended this printer to a lot of people, i wish it did multi colours but the filament change is super easy to do. Apparently there is another one coming out with multi filaments soon though.

After reading a lot of reviews on these I thought it would be a great starting point, especially as I don't want to print overnight.Packing was great, step by step instructions with installed test prints. First set up and printing. Amazed! Good quality prints very fast.I used orca, correct profile and default settings. Can't access Flashforge version as Web page returns 404 error.Couple days later, no alterations to printer or slicer and I get a heating warning.On inspection the nozzle was resting on the plate at a 45 degree angle. This also left deep gouges in the build plate.Amazon were fantastic and I purchased a new nozzle....Fitted the nozzle as per instructions, switched on and factory reset printer. Ran calibration after reset and started a benchy, 3rd layer in and the machine beeps and I literally watch the extruder plunge into the bed again bending the nozzle.I don't know if this was a one off untill I searched nozzle snapping on adventurer 5m and it seem pretty common among reddit users.Opting for this instead of the Bambu lambs was in my case a bad idea.Has definately put me off Flashforge if purchasing further printers.Guess I'll wait to see how the bambu labs does.Not reccomended in my opinion.UPDATEAmazon and Flasjforge have been great, unfortunately still trying to pinpoint the issue , but CS from Flashforge is great, very responsive and helpfull.

Brilliant piece of equipment. Moved away from the Ender 3 to this and I can't complain about much. The slicer is something to be desired after a long time with PrusaSlicer. It prints incredibly quickly, no bed adhesion problems, incredibly accurate prints and sizing is spot on. Worth every penny. If you're looking for a first printer, this is the one.

The media could not be loaded. As per the title, I am very pleased so far. It's too early to be able to give a full and true review of the machine and the after sales service but I will give my honest opinion so far.The machine arrived exactly when quoted which was 2 days after purchase. If arrived in perfect condition and no damage whatsoever to the packaging.Everything that was supposed to be in the package was present and correct and in brand new condition.I set the machine up quite quickly and had it running in about an hour without any problems whatsoever.This printer is an amazing piece of equipment, the speed and quality of print is astonishing. This printer just works, I haven't had to mess around with anything at all, which is a refreshing change from all the grief usually associated with 3d printing on the older type open source machines that I am used to.At the time of purchase, it was £399 with the standard 5M model being available for £269, at that price, it wasn't worth trying to save £130 on the cheaper option when I would have ended up spending nearly that much converting it to something that would resemble the Pro model without having all of the features.To be honest, at this price, I would highly recommend just getting the Pro model for the fact that it will print a wider range of materials and is a really nice piece of kit straight out of the box.I will update this review if and when anything worth saying needs to said.

A few weeks ago I purchased a flashforge 4 pro and I really liked the quality of the build and the unit was really big compared to the 5 pro .I sent the 4 back because on initial set up the ribbon got trapped and was forcing the head unit to make a loud banging and clonking noise . The nozzle also after calibration scratched the metal bed and caused grooving so I sent it back and bought a 5 pro.On delivery I noticed that the unit was a lot smaller in size but was impressed again by the design and quality . After setting it up which was extremely easy with the instruction booklet and it was a breeze I carried out my first test print cube and then a benchy . Wow I could not believe the speed of this and the quality of the print . It was extremely fast and I was gobsmacked at the difference to the 4 . I have never owned a 3f printer before the 4 and now the 5 and I’m so impressed with how easy it is . It would be nice if they made this print multi colours and also if they didn’t have the filament on the rear increasing the depth but apart from that it’s brilliant and would highly recommend anyone just thinking of starting out like me .
