This could be great but the slicer crashes all the time
If you print low resolution small file this thing will work. If the file has high resolution the point of a SLA print it will crash and you wont get a chance to print. If the could get there slicer fixed this might be a great printer. Until them this thing is kinda junk. Another time Ccreality beta test their products on customer. Aside from that there is no replacement parts and software is third party and look like it wont be updated anytime soon.Update:I received a software update from the manufacture on this printer which helped with all the crashing. But know the printer wont print. It now black screens. My advice is this don't buy this printer.Don't Buy.Until they get this thing dialed in I think like anything creality they will continue to use us user to test mule their machines for free. This is not right to put out a product that just does not work.I really want to buy another one and hope I just got a dude but that is a pretty big risk.

Great system. Amazing detail.
This printer is fantastic for the price. I have made some incredible prints with it. I've been using Elegoo resin and it's not as expensive to run as I thought it would be. Adjustment of the printer has been simple and easy so far (only about 1 liter of resin printed) after about 12-15 batches of multiple item prints. Yes, I've had failures, but that was due to messing with exposure times to try to optimize them. Must have additional items are an ultrasonic cleaner, 99% rubbing alcohol, and some ziploc sandwich bags to wash the prints in (put a little alcohol in the bags with the parts and put that in the cleaner).The only problems I've had with this printer are in the software. There are problems with the printers built-in software when using it over WiFi. The wireless interface works great to send and start the print, but it doesn't show the correct information while the print is running, things are misspelled, it stops working, refresh in the browser doesn't work, and when it does update correctly, it's very slow and takes several tries.Then, there's the slicing software. After switching from is default Chinese to English, it still has many remnants left in Chinese (the About page has only a couple things I could read). That's not a big deal because other than one large issue, it works rather well. I know it's new, but the software shouldn't crash so much. I can't save settings or get it to slice models reliably at all. In trying to ask Creality some questions about it directly, their customer service department asked for a copy of my invoice and then refused to answer my questions because I purchased it from Amazon and not Creality directly. 3rd party software is not available and I have no alternatives, yet.If I can't solve the software issues, it's going back. I have two weeks left.Update 2018-10-10: Turns out the email address I got (from the software) was a seller with a name (and email address) containing "Creality" but they were not the actual manufacturer. I got an Amazon email from someone who claimed to be with the manufacturer that said they do have updates available, but I haven't heard back from them again to get a download link or anything. I raised my rating to 3 stars in anticipation of future support, but still reflecting the current problems in the software. Also, added a picture.Update 2018-10-15: Got a new version of software directly from Creality and they have been great to work with. It is working MUCH better than the one that came with the printer as long as I save the temporary slicing files on a local disk drive. The previous issue with the customer service contact information was due to me following a link on the "About" screen in the software and ending up at a reseller's site instead of the actual Creality company. With the new software, I have been able to do some fantastic prints and am looking forward to many more. I don't have a problem with the smell (a small exhaust fan nearby does just fine on low). I've used a lot of tri-fold towels keeping things clean (5 or 6 for each batch of prints) because I HATE wearing gloves and would rather just be extra careful. Now, off to order some more resin...

Broke after a week
Update:Returning printer. Z stop literally just stopped registering out of nowhere and crashes into the screen no matter what you adjust. Had it a week and worked fine and just out of nowhere it stopped. Trying to find replacement parts for this printer is literally impossible. Going to be switching to a different brand.Iโve been fdm printing for years and have always wanted a dlp printing. This thing is awesome!!! I cannot believe the detail and the ease of use. Itโs daunting at first watching videos about dlp printing but after a little bit you learn the process very easily! Slicer could use some work, using the beta version and it is alright but it gets the job done.

Received the printer, part missing
I received the printer today, but the VAT is missing out of the box... I will update my review once i receive the VAT but for now, its pretty disappointing especially since I want to use the printer this weekend.

Love it.
The seller was quick to respond and helpful with my question.The printer is great I'm using it to make jewelry and the detail is excellent. I am very impressed. The learning curve is WAY easier than FDM printing and the detail quality is worlds better.
