  • Excellent print quality, Good selection of print materials including support for third-party resins, Simple-to-use software, Very adaptable for multiple users
  • Both printer and resin are expensive, Testing produced occasional print failures with large prints
  • The Form 2 is an excellent 3D printer that can produce high-quality prints with very clean, sharp edges and fine reproduction of subtle details. Although the clear material we used in testing is quite soft, we were able to easily assemble our set of test...

  • High quality prints, Practical resins, Easy to extract models
  • Printing times are slow, Messy when cleaning up prints, Expensive compared with FFM printers
  • The Form 2 stands alone both in terms of price and ability. Print quality and resin mean that you can build almost anything but the price and SLA technology will not suit everyone...

  • There's no doubt that the Form 2 is one of the best desktop 3D printers presently available. Build quality is excellent with good solid construction and careful attention to detail, Small features such as the adjustable legs for levelling make life easier
  • The Form 2 is expensive both to buy and run costing more than double that of a good high-end FFM printer, Depending on the type you use, resin also costs considerably more than filament and there is far less choice, The more expensive resins also need a h
  • The Form 2 is designed for anyone needing a high-end 3D printing solution and is ideal for those needing to produce prototypes, small product runs or highly detailed quality models or jewellery designs.The process of producing a print is far more time con...

  • Expensive, Resin is messy
  • Yes. it's certainly a bit on the expensive side, but if you have the budget for it and want high quality printed parts, this is most definitely the printer you should buy...

  • Inevitably, we're tempted to draw comparisons between the Form 1+ (which we looked at back in 2014) and this new machine — but, in fact, the overall experience is like operating two entirely different machines.The build process is still the same, but near...
