  • Outstanding print quality, Attractive design, Supports multiple materials
  • Expensive, High-maintenance, Too complex for DIY repairs
  • Comparing an SLA printer to an FDM one is a bit like comparing apples to oranges: They're certainly different, but at the end of the day, they're both fruit. Anyone who says you can't compare the two is a buffoon. The Form 1+ is arguably one the best c...

  • Extremely accurate build detail; welldeveloped management software; quiet; simple to use
  • Slow; expensiv, including replacement of resin and resin tanks; messy postprinting object cleanup; difficult to remove printed objects from platform
  • The machine can produce eye-popping detail, so it would be a standout for use in precision prototyping of parts. On the other hand, its ability to produce accurate detail must be balanced with its slow speed and the inconvenient post-printing processes, s...

  • Stunning print resolution, No calibration needed, A beautiful desktop object
  • Messy and sticky, High cost of consumables, Small build volume
  • Capable of stunningly high-resolution prints, but the small build platform and enormous long-term costs place the Form 1+ in a rather tight niche....

  • Expensive, Need extra software to hollow out models
  • I've tested a whole bunch of 3D printers over the last year or so, and the Formlabs Form 1+ is a real step forward, giving confidence in the process and real conviction in the results achievable. The level of detail and finish it can achieve is stunning ...

  • Produces very-high-qualit, high-resolution print, Software is easy to us, Printing is fairly quick and easy to monito, Smaller prints are easy to print and remove from the devic, Range of layer sizes offers flexible balance between speed and quality
  • Both the printer and the resin it uses are expensiv, Limited range of resin colors (clea, whit, gra, blac, Larger prints are difficult to remove from the print bed
  • Formlabs' Form 1+ 3D Printer produces very-high-quality items, but the printer and materials are pricey. Formlabs is a relative newcomer to the 3D-printing scene, with the Form 1+ being only its second product. As the name implies, it is an upd...

  • Beautiful print quality. High resolution. Compact. Quiet.
  • Print preparation and finishing can be arduous. Some misprints. Modest build volume. Limited color choices
  • The compact and quiet Formlabs Form 1+ 3D printer creates magnificent, high-resolution objects from liquid resin, but the printing process is more onerous than with 3D printers that use plastic filament....

  • Do you know your FDM from your SLA? Thought not, but these acronyms represent competing technologies that, in the world of 3D printing, have a rivalry of Hamilton vs Rosberg proportions. The first stands for Fused Deposition Modelling - it's the squirty...

  • Der Formlabs Form 1+ liefert ausgesprochen feine Objekte ab. Nicht immer ist die höchste Auflösung aber ein Garant für ein Top-Ergebnis. So zeigt unser Töpfchen bei 0,0,5 Millimetern Schichtdicke das beste Resultat, nicht aber bei 0,025 Millimetern...
