Pros & Cons
Pros
The 3d genius dryer is a great option and dries really quickly (and it hits much higher temps to help dry nylon and polycarbonate) with the powerful blower inside, but cracking the case slightly open is recommended. After 10 hours, a full 2k spool of ... Read More
Fan is a little noisy, but that's better than having no fan at all. It is pretty quiet. My only real complaint is that there isn't a hygrometer built into the unit. The e1 errors are annoying, but if you flip the back power switch off and then on, it ... Read More
I like how simple this was to operate. The digital display is easy to use, although its a bit to remember for all the different filament types, so i used my label maker to make a cheat sheet that i stuck to the side of the dryer.
Like the sunlu, it has a timer. The timer can be set to (1-36 hours) the other three * are to select modes for duration and the three temp values with corresponding up/down *.
Having worked with multiple filament dryers (including some repurposed food dehydrators), this one isn't bad. Good bed adhesion and mostly smooth layer lines. Temperature settings (45c, 55c, and 70c) are adequate for use with most filament types.
Cons
It lists the standard settings but no information on best practices. It assumes you’ve done your homework on that. Could be an issue with the humidity level in my house and outside. Apparently due to a failing fan.
Highlights
Quality
Quality of construction seems to be very good.
It is easy to set up, easy to use and the internal fan allows it to work faster and better!
After printing literally dozens of retraction towers and never getting a super clean print, i went to a fb printing group for advice.
The power cord doesn’t have a large power brick attached to it and is detachable, while located next to a fused link and power switch.
Price
Totally worth the cost in my opinion.
That said, for the price, it absolutely works.
It would cost nothing extra to show alternating time and temperature as (01 h / 46 c) instead of a 4-digit display such as 0146... Read More
Overall, if the price is good, go ahead and get it
Packaging/appearance
If you knew that the inside humidity was high, you could stick some desiccant packets into the box to speed up the drying process.
The box is designed to hold a single 1kg spool but i find i can fit two .
Competitiveness
I would recommend this dryer over the more popular ones out there because it seems to drop the humidity quicker and keep it dow... Read More
My original dryer was a jayo brand one i also got on amazon, and although that one was a bit cheaper, this 3d genius one seems ... Read More
The size reference is in the images with referenced competitors.
Adding a hygrometer would make this much better option than the s1 and better choice than the s2’s bells and whistles with the ... Read More
