In this video, I discuss the pros and cons of the Ender 5 Plus, a large format 3D Printer from Creality.

If you've seen one of my reviews before, you can expect the same honest evaluation of the printer and its performance. I explain what has stood out to me the pros and cons over the past 2 months of use.

Do you have this machine, has your experience been different to mine? If you don't have this machine are you tempted to buy it? I'm interested to hear people's views, so do let me know in the comments down below.

Please note I purchased this printer at full price, £480 via Amazon UK. I am aware you can get it cheaper from sites such as GearBest, but personally, I prefer the extra warranty assurances.
