MYNT3DProfessional Printing 3D Pen with OLED Display

I did plenty of research on this before buying it (mostly through YouTube) so I kind of knew what I was getting into. I mostly got it to make prototype models to make molds of later on. To be honest, I really don't have any problems with it and for having it almost a year, I don't think that's half bad at all. I've used a multitude of different filaments with it and it seems to handle everything just fine.

I got this pen to fix over 30 small 3d printed boxes used for adding desiccant beads with 3d filament when bagging them to absorb moisture.. I did not notice that all of those boxes had a section in the corner that wasn't printed correctly.. so decided to get this pen after reading reading reviews it does work with PETG filament. I used 190 C then decreased it down to 185 C and I think 180 C may work as well.I have other stuff that broke on me and I'll be using the 3d pen to fix them.Not really noisy .. and i think It takes some practice to use it .. very light weight and ergonomic .. awesome qualityShall anything changes, I'll updateBut for now, totally recommend it... 👌

The pen it’s self is okay my only issue was the motor in the pen blew after a single days use. And when I contacted Amazon about it they couldn’t do anything about it, well said they wouldn’t do anything about it so I have to contact mynt and have them send me a replacement pen!

I'm writing this review after one day of use and with no basis for comparison, because this is the first pen I have like this. After I buy a few more to review, I may or may not update this as needed.I got this for my mom and decided to "learn" it so I can help her if she needed it. Here's my list of findings:I am giving 5 stars at this point because the pen does what it advertises and comes as described. Personal opinions are denoted as such.TL;DR- I like it. It works. It's as described, and it's fun.Who's this for?:Everybody really. Children, with supervisor, can easily and safely use this pen to get creative. Also, it's not just for art related things, it can be used for household tasks of repairing plastic items. The end result of the plastic is hard and depending on how much filament is used, it can be brittle or tough. I would not call it bendy or pliable.Pros:COST- very affordable, including replacement heads, plastic filament, and 3rd party itemsEASE OF USE- Extremely easy to use with a small learning curve. Not as dainty or fragile as I thought it would be. Really detailed projects will take practice, but I believe really creative people will have a blast making all sorts of things with this. I did make a 3D box, including "writing" vertically, and it was easy enough as to not require extraordinary patience. I made several written scripts with this and a couple of 2D things like a butterfly and a heart. I'm not creative at all, so I was just making stuff up to see how it worked and show my mom. It was so easy that I kept trying to find things to do. I also ended up fixing the end of a broken plug by filling in the gaps and repairing the break. So it's not just for art that this might be of use to some.QUALITY- Nice box presentation, and most importantly SIMPLE. The pen feels good, it's plastic and light. Even with the squared sides, it does feel comfortable in the hand and does not get in the way of the project.SETUP/OPERATION- I was up and running within 3 minutes of opening the box. It's fairly self explanatory, but there are many videos available to help. Setting the temperature and waiting for warm up took less than a minute, then loading the filament took a few seconds and I was ready to start pushing plastic.I went through the red spool pretty quickly just messing around, but I'm not bothered by that as replacement spools in larger sizes are available. Might have been nice to include more plastic as I'm sure it's not very expensive to produce, but I understand sample packs and residual income.CONS: (disclaimer: I had to think REALLY hard to find cons about this thing)The power cord is short. Too short. You can use a power brick with this, but it has to put out 2A continual power. That's probably more useful depending how close your desk is to a plug. Obviously you can use an extension cord too, but I think the power adapter should have been a touch longer.I do think more filament should be included in the sample pack, but this is understandable since the company would want you to go buy more, so this is just an opinion.I think it should ship with a carrying case. (subjective)

Purchased as a gift for my granddaughter. She has so much fun creating things. She made dice, cars, etc. so many things you can make.

Pretty great honestly! Throw some 20$ 1.75mm Pla filament in your cart and have fun. I takes a bit of a learning curve but just think of yourself has a magical hot glue gun and look up tutorials and it’s actually pretty fun. Crack and door or window for ventilation. Don’t touch the tip of the pen- it’s hot. Try drawing a template on paper and covering with scotch tape for a good surface to work off of. If you want to make things but clay always either feels like melted butter or a rock- and your work always gets squished in your hands (me, this was me lol) you may really like this. No issues so far
