Today I got the first of my printers for evaluation at work. I Got a LulzBot TAZ3. So far I have to say this thing is fantastic. From box to print it took 1.5 hours, and I was eating lunch at the same time. It took longer to configure and install Slic3r on my work laptop and get the Rambo Drivers installed then it did to setup and level the bed.
As far as build quality goes its amazing.Zero warping in any of the parts, with fantastic fit up. No nut seats are used and every part that takes a thread uses a threaded insert for great ease of assembly.
Like I said I was printing within 1.5 hours. The first print was kind of shakey, but I expected that, the office its in is fairly drafty.
Overall the impressions I have and my co-workers had are very positive. The form and function are far better then our MakerBot2X. The thing doesnt sound like it’s going to shake apart for one thing. The printer is very stiff and stable. I was even able to pick it up and move it to a different desk while it was printing without a hiccup.
Thanks
