GearBest has kindly send me a 3D printer for review, it is the TRONXY X5S which has a build volume of 330 x 330 x 400 and features core XY kinematics
In the video I quoted the PLA temperatures as 90 110, it was actually 190 210, sorry for the confusion.
This is a full KIT, unlike printers like the CR10 that require about 6 screws and your done, this one has a few sub parts assembled but you will need a day to build it up, and if your not mechanically minded, help may be a good idea.
Although the printer was sent to me FOC, Customs and Couriers made sure it was not totally free. This review will still remain unbiased and honest so dont think I will hide things from you if I find any issues, you will know about it.
In this video I summarize my experience with the build and what I plan to do with the printer next to improve it (I have already upgraded the Hot End and Controller cooling fans)

The Noctua Fan I replace the Controller cooling fan with can be found here, I also replace the one cooling the hot end heat break ans it was really noise and whining. : http://noctua.at/en/nfa4x10flx
This printer is turning out to be quite impressive, packaging was good and materials quality is excelent, more to follow as we build this printer. I anticipate it taking about 4 hours (If your not trying to video at the same time )
There will be many more videos as I run it through a few prints and upgrades.
