I purchased this for my 13 year old son’s birthday. We had no previous experience with 3D printers. I researched many different 3D models for about a month. I wanted one that was easy to setup and could be used independently by him. I agonized over which one to go with, and when I decided on the Entina Tina 2S it was because the price was right, customer service has a great reputation, and it came pre assembled and ready to go right out of the box. This printer has been absolutely amazing! It has far exceeded my expectations. I wanted one that came with an SD card with preloaded images to print, one that was WiFi compatible and one that had the ability to be used with a Mac Book. The App for the printer has been working great! We haven’t even needed to use the software on our computer because the App is very user friendly and has a large library of options to print. He’s been printing fidgets for his brother and buddies and little toy animals for his sister and her friends. I would highly recommend this 3D printer- it is a great beginner printer and so easy to navigate.

My first printer had many failure points after 6 months. After working with the supplier, I am receiving a new one.Even though this is a beginner printer, it makes great, fine detailed, small parts. The slow, Cartesian movement and extrusion/ retraction speed make for better production of small parts. My experience with cross X-Y printers show that although very fast, they are better for very large, less detailed prints.Some ideas to keep this printer in good shape:1. Carefully clean the inside of the printer with a vacuum cleaner after every print job. This keeps filament strands away from the z axis worm gears, all axis bearing guide rails and the critically y endstop.2. The x axis gantry belt will encounter some wear in the region where the torque is applied from the x axis motor gear. Clean that belt with a vacuum cleaner to remove small worn belt pieces that might occur.3. After every job, I run cleaning filament through the extruder. This removes small, caked on pieces from the extruder bore.4. Apply a small amount of clear silicone grease the z axis worm gears and allaxis bearing guides (also underneath printer.5. If you must move any axis assemblies, turn the printer off! Otherwise, the stepper motors will act as generators and send a back emf into the motherboard, possibly damaging it.6. Watch the you tube maintenance videos, especially the one for removing the top from the unit. This requires care to avoid damage to the unit walls.Conclusion: overall, a very good printer for the price!

Nothing but good things to say about this wonderful little printer, shipped fast and well packaged, worked right out of the box with little setting up - the self leveling build bed is a dream and the fine detail that this prints at is wonderful - this is not for large items but is great for small detailed parts and some less detailed miniature figures - overall very happy with this machine and would recommend it to any beginner to 3d modeling - BUT the proprietary slicer software (Wiibuilder) that comes with it is very poor and it is better to use the standard CURA slicer that is also included with the printer. I have used CURA for years and found it to be the best slicer software for my machines.

La stampante e' facile da configurare ed in pochi minuti e' pronta all'uso. La stampa 3d richiede molto tempo, minimo 2 ore per gli oggetti di medie dimensioni. La temperatura dell'ugello e' di 200 gradi quindi attenzione ai piu' piccoli che rimarranno incantati vedendola funzionare. Ottima anche l'applicazione dedicata che consente di lanciare le stampe con estrema facilita. C'e' molta scelta.

初めての3Dプリンターです。もともとメカ設計の仕事で3D CADを使っていましたので、FUSION 360を使って、色々なパーツを作り大活躍しています。たとえば、壊れたキーボードのアシの修理パーツを作ったり、便利小物や、チーム用の3Dロゴバッチを作っています。ほとんど自動設定でおまかせで、PCとの接続も簡単でした。大きなパーツはそもそもプリントに時間がかかりますので、このくらいのプリントサイズで丁度良いのかな?と感じていますが、もしかすると将来 もっと造形速度が速くなれば、大きなプリンターが欲しくなるかもしれませんね

This was our first experience with a 3D printer. My son had been wanting to try 3D printing for a while now and his interest in learning about it made me want to try it as well. So i searched and researched for months trying to find a good small printer that would be beginner friendly but also of good quality, and preferably on sale as well. Finally I decided on this one based off its great reviews and low price tag (caught it on a lightning deal) and my son was thrilled when I showed it to him.Setting it up was lightning fast, pretty much just plug and play after unpacking it and loading the filament. The first print we did was the pre-loaded frog, and it came out cute but broke as we tried to get it off the bed because it was super stuck on there. We tried all the other models on the TF card and they all came out cute, but we really started to get an idea of just how SLOW this printer is. We moved on to models downloaded from the Poloprint app and online, and started to notice that the quality of prints went down tremendously if the model wasn't super simple and mostly flat. I tried following the advice of others about changing settings and such, but nothing really helps. I really started to kick myself about this purchase a couple weeks in because of all the limitations of this machine, especially with just how long it takes to print such tiny models. I knew I should have just spent the extra money to get a full-size printer that prints much faster. I wish I could just return this, but I hate being that person that returns items that I've already opened and used just because it isn't as "cool" as I thought it would be. It does work, it is just incredibly slow and best for simple models, pretty much just an expensive toy for my son. He likes it still and keeps using it, but he is also frustrated with how slow it is and how half of his prints fail for one reason or another. It does seem like a safe machine for kids to use and is easy to figure out, so it does get some points for being child-friendly. Just treat it like a toy and not a serious 3D printer, and maybe you won't be dissapointed.

I wanted a smaller printer so I could do little prince without having to set up the big one each time. As a result, I actually like this printer over my big printer! So simple to use, prints are accurate, and has been a wonderful printer to use thus far. I’d recommend this printer to beginners, and advanced users who want a small printer.Note: I recommend that you use the manufacturer’s version of Cura instead of Wiibuilder. Wiibuilder caused artifacts and other unpleasant results when used. Cura worked fine.Pros:Auto leveling.Removable bed.Easy to change filament.Easy to use.Accurate prints.Fast heating nozzle.Cons:Very small filament holder. Need smaller rolls or to carefully unwind what you’ll need off a bigger roll and monitor for issues.Wiibuilder - don’t use it, use their Cura version.The reset button can cause the print head to jam into the print plate, so watch out for that.

La stampante è molto compatta e funziona bene.Bisogna considerare che non ha il letto riscaldato e la ventola per raffreddare i layer stampati.L'unica ventola presente è utilizzata per raffreddare l'estrusore e l'aria viene convogliata anche per raffreddare i layer stampati, ma il flusso dell'aria non è sufficiente per raffreddarli adeguatamente in modo rapido.Per quanto riguarda la mancanza del letto riscaldato sul letto viene applicato un adesivo di carta, che può essere sostituito con quelli di ricambio ed al termine utilizzare del comune nastro di carta che si usa per fare le mascherature quando si da il bianco in casa. Le stampe vengono bene. Con alcune stampe ho un fastidioso problema che fa si che si blocchi lo schermo e non mi permette di vedere il tempo residuo di stampa o effettuare modifiche al volo su velocità di stampa, flusso, ecc, in ogni caso, anche durante questo blocco, la stampa prosegue in autonomia. Il problema non è sempre presente, ma non ho ancora capito a cosa sia dovuto. Il venditore Entina (ottimo venditore) mi ha supportato per aiutarmi fornendomi un nuovo firmware che purtroppo non ha risolto il problema, ma almeno apprezzo l'impegno.In ogni caso mi ritengo soddisfatto dell'acquisto anche se si potrebbero apportare alcune migliorie: piedini con velcro, filtro antipolvere sul filamento, sensore di presenza filamento, letto riscaldato, led per illuminare piano di stampa, fan duct per raffreddare il filamento che esce dal nozzle. La cosa bella è che la maggior parte di queste migliorie si possono stampare in autonomia con la stessa stampante (come ad esempio il fan duct presente sul sito Cults3d "tina2 fan duct for standard 40x40x10").
