Big bang for the buck
Tl;drGreat price, great prints, enormous size. I'd say this is a great intermediate printer or a beginner who isn't afraid to tinker. This is not "plug and play" out of the box.So this printer is huge compared to others. It's print quality depend greatly upon your settings and ability to tweek them, but Anycubic does provide several recommended initial settings for various filament types.The only mod I performed for this printer during the build was the addition of orings around the arms holding the hotend head for increased stability.Pros:Spare equipment came packaged (entire spare hotend, various nozzle sizes from 0.4-0.8, spool of white filament as well a several small trial packs of various colors). This printer is able to print several different types of filament, it has a massive build volume, the touch screen is bright and responsive, the build is sturdy and I have yet to have any prints which have ghosting due to resonance. Customer service is responsive, but since it is a Chinese based company, there is a gross time difference.Cons:A potential negative is that you do have to put this printer together yourself, but there are upsides to that. You learn the parts, and are able to troubleshoot if need be. When leveling the unit you should preheat the bed, due to the way it works, it does expand upon heating, allowing for easy removal after it cools. This allows for a better more precise level (which isn't covered in the manual from what I saw). Each unit is pre-built and tested prior to packaging, which is normally good for QC, unless a piece of filament is stuck in the extruder where you can't see it like my unit had. Luckily I was comfortable enough to pop the side cover off, look at it and fix it myself.Overall, for the price, this printer can't be beat and I would suggest one to any friends looking to purchase a printer.If you're a beginner, there are several videos out there on setup, build, and mods for them if you aren't tech savvy.I will update should there be any gross negatives appear.

Bed And Level Issues
I am going to start off by saying this is my first 3D printer so during my difficulties with this I assume a large portion of the problem lies with me.Positives: Sturdy, I dont feel like I have to be careful and meticulous to a fault with this. Print quality is decent and you really can set up and go. Noise isnt too bad but if you're in a small room it's all you will hear. The interface is very straight forward and easy to use. Cura makes it simple to just, drag, drop and print. Generally I agree with others that there are a lot of quality of life things, the ability to continuously print, pause, switch filament, great print size.Negatives: My prints wont stay level. Period. It's difficult for me to ascertain the exact issue, but to start with the leveling sensor is incredibly inconsistent. I print something, muzzle scrapes the bed badly. I relieved, nozzle to far up. Only on certain portions, your center and upper right could be perfect but your lower left could be way too high. Readjust, same problem just either too low or too high in other areas. Fine tuning is difficult as you can ONLY fine tune the height beyond .1mm if you are printing the TEST code. I've tried to adjust it in Cura but I have noticed no difference. I am not sure if the bed is heating up well enough as filament doesnt always adhere properly a lot of the time. Your print quality can also suffer due to the steppers shaking, causing some wobbling and affecting your final product.Currently support has sent me out a new bed and a cover strip that was not included initially. I reached out to their Facebook group as I couldnt keep staying up waiting for emails due to time difference but they just told me to keep emailing my original representative. I'm waiting to see if a new bed will help before I adjust this review. If not, I will be returning this printer.
