I have 5 M5 printers and by using the correct nozzles, making sure my resin is dry, understanding the settings, using good filament and by having a reasonable maintenance routine I have been able to Gert fabulous results. It is a great shame that Ankermaker has decided to leave this market and not develop more product.
Coming from 7 years of learning my chops on an Ender 3 this is luxury and facility.
The printer is absolutely great a total recommend for the price. but i bought the ankermake m5 that said it came with a 2 pack of pvp glue. there was the one stick of glue it came with. if i can still get that glue it will be a 5/5.
Excellent product !!!
The print quality is good, it's fast and the phone app & slicer are great too.
The camera is cool, but it really should be higher up so that it doesn't just record the underside of the heat bed on smaller models.
Being able to print and monitor straight from my phone is amazing.
The noise is verging on a deal-breaker for me. It's LOUD. My wife and I share the basement as our home office and she asked me to stop a print so she could join a conference call! It was just too noisy. My Ender 3 Neo is virtually silent in comparison, has almost the same print volume (only 15mm less on each axis), can print all the same materials at the same quality, and is a fraction of the price.
So you're getting speed and nice-to-have features at the expense of cost and noise.
I'm fairly happy with it, but I can't say I'm blown away
