Once again, and as I found with previous Qidi machines, the Q2 offers a solid no-fuss approach to 3D printing. The machine is less aesthetic than some of the competition, with a more serious workshop style that actually reflects what you’re getting. After initial calibration of the single filament option, the machine just ran for months with no issues, producing solid, well-defined prints that essentially make it one of the most reliable machines I’ve used. The attachment of the Qidi Box was another matter, but as a single filament multi use machine this is ideal for business and education.

Pros

  • +Excellent print reliability
  • +Wide material support
  • +Simple automatic calibration

Cons

  • -Smaller than Max4
  • -Not the fastest
  • -QIDI Box costs extra
