Good idea but implementation still poor. Needs to work with S3D – leveling/raft NOT intuitive, crashed mine 3 times.
I know it’s not fashionable but how about instructions written by somebody who is English and writes technical instructions professionally…

Great printer – easy to assemble. First print came out great.
Erik (verified owner) –
The hardware is good, even there is no possibility to level the bed physicaly. In Up software there is the posibility to level the bed. That is great, but the up software is extremly restricted.
I print with gcode form ideamaker, but without a leveled bed 🙁

Hardware is very good, and it is the only printer on the market that is transportable. I travel every 3 weeks and just disassemble/ assemble it within 10 mins, pack it in the original package foam and move. However a bit lack behind competition in now considered standard, like heated build plate, auto leveling. It is upgradable but it should be standard in the first place.

The Cetus 3D MK3 Standard is my 2nd 3D printer, the first didn’t deliver AT ALL (101 Hero), so I did my research and the Cetus seemed like the best solution for beginner/intermediate requirements. It uses quality parts and delivers precise and quick prints! You can get other decent printers for half the price, but not with these quality parts and fairly quick assembly. I personally didn’t look forward to put a kit together that sets you back days. All in all, I totally recommend it! Really made my entry into the world of 3D printing a smooth experience.
Delivery from the UK to Germany was quite quick, despite a small hiccup (company name missing on the address label).

I like the printer very much. The printer is so exactly and needs only less space. The only Bad thing is that the Z axis Drops done after shuting off the printer. So the nozzle hits the printing bed everytime. Maybe you can fix that in the future. But Overall I will recommend the cetus.

The print quality and accuracy easily competes and in some cases exceeds that of printers costing 5 or 6 times more

Great product
Diederich (verified owner) –
Setup was very easy, adjustment and installation of the software (UPStudio) also. Shipment to The Netherlands was fast with accurate shipment information. My first project was a small ‘holder’ for my ledring project. Very accurate printed for such a small piece. All without fiddling with setting, used the defaults (0.15). I think the MK3 is a quality product and I definitely will use it in future projects.

Easy to assemble and disassemble, it is actaully a very protable printer, quality remains after the transportation.
Paolo L. (verified owner) –
The printer is very good. Easy to assemble without need to perform complex calibration during assembling, just the nozzle height calibration. And first try resulted in a perfect print.

Verry nice printer. I put it together in about 5 minutes, downloaded the software and powered it up. Printed out of the box with very good quality. I’m impressed about this printer and like it a lot. Coated printbed sticks very good with PLA and PETG. I am concidering getting the heated prindbed as well.
