Blocked Filament Tube Prevents Printing Out of the Box
The printer arrived well packed in an undamaged box and appears to be a high-quality machine with an updated extruder shroud and housing. However, a preexisting blockage about an inch long was found in the Teflon filament tube, preventing filament from reaching the extruder and making printing impossible. The unit has not been used yet because disassembling the extruder to remove the blockage has not been attempted. Contact information for support was not found. The overall experience is disappointing despite otherwise impressive hardware.
Pros
- + excellent packaging
- + well-packed box arrived undamaged
- + updated extruder shroud and housing
- + impressive hardware
Cons
- − preexisting blockage in Teflon filament tube
- − printer cannot print
- − requires disassembly to fix
- − no support contact information found

Easy setup and smooth initial prints
This 3D printer is solid and easy to use, suitable for different generations. Setup is straightforward with downloaded instructions, and it was completed quickly. Small test prints came out with smooth corners and edges, and speed and functionality were assessed. Multicolor printing produced a beautiful piece with minimal filament loss. Durability is still being evaluated over time. It is recommended based on initial use, with further comments to come after longer use.
Pros
- + solid build
- + easy setup with downloaded instructions
- + smooth corners and edges
- + minimal filament loss with multicolor printing
Cons
- − durability not yet assessed over time

Capable printer with a learning curve and setup cautions
A capable 3D printer that handles many filament types, including wood, and is impressive to watch. It uses more power and is noisier than expected due to cooling fans, and needs a stable workspace with Wi-Fi or a dongle. Setup is not hard but a little complicated, so mistakes are easy; change the voltage before plugging in. A small white filament roll is included for test prints. Designing is harder than expected, but free tools and tutorials exist. Budget for extras like a filament dryer, cleaning solutions, and bed spray.
Pros
- + handles many filament types including wood
- + impressive to watch
- + includes all needed tools
- + small starter filament roll included
Cons
- − uses more power than expected
- − noisier than expected due to cooling fans
- − setup is a little complicated
- − designing is harder than expected
- − requires Wi-Fi or a dongle
- − needs a dedicated power circuit

Easy to use and prints well
This printer was purchased as an upgrade to a K1C, mainly for the heated chamber and the larger build area. After over 100 hours of printing, the K1C has been put into storage while the reason for the K2 Pro's better print quality is investigated. Whether it is due to the four-post bed versus three-post design, the linear rail for the toolhead, or another factor, the layer lines on the K2 Pro are noticeably better. The setup is straightforward and the printer works reliably.
Pros
- + heated chamber
- + larger build area
- + better layer lines
- + easy to use
- + reliable

Reliable 3D Printer With Minimal Setup
This printer self-calibrates and has run almost continuously for a month with only minor issues. A clogged nozzle occurred after switching from ABS to PLA without purging, and the extruder jammed a few times during filament retraction. Both problems were easy to fix by taking the extruder apart. The printer makes 3D printing enjoyable again, allowing more time for designing and printing and far less time on machine maintenance. The included slicing software is good, and the app allows checking prints and viewing real-time video of the print bed.
Pros
- + self-calibrates automatically
- + runs almost non-stop for a month
- + easy to disassemble and clear jams
- + good slicing software
- + app with real-time video monitoring
Cons
- − nozzle clog after switching from ABS to PLA without purging
- − extruder jammed a few times during filament retraction
