Small Package – Huge Value
Due to its safety, price, and performance, there is no better 3D printer for the education market, where the mini 2 is a best seller. The competition simply doesn’t stack up.
A school board can purchase two UP mini 2s for less than one LulzBot Mini, MakerBot Replicator Mini+ or Ultimaker 2 Go. None of these competing 3D printers include air filtration and a full enclosure.
Superior Value. Exceptional Quality.

Touch Screen Control
An easy-to-use, 4” LCD panel puts control of your printer, configuration settings, and print progress monitoring right at your fingertips. The mini 2 is truly touch ‘n print.
Full Enclosure
Warm air is retained within the build chamber, minimizing the risk of ABS warping while further reducing UFP and VOC environmental impact. Access is easy thanks to front and back doors, plus a lift-off top.

I am very satisfied with this printer.
Unfortunately, I can not work with PLA.
The extruder denies any kind of PLA.
Therefore I can only work with ABS.
If this error could still be eliminated it would be the perfect device for me.
The service of Tiertime is great and uncomplicated.
That’s why I bought a second UP Mini 2.
