Very easy to assemble, easy to maintain. Just make sure to use quality filament or you will encounter lots of feed errors.
[200+ print hours]. I have used multiple types from maker bot, bambu, any cubic, etc from school and work over the past 10 years. The quality of the prints to the price is incredible and I would still buy it again if i knew what i know now then. I have enhanced my AD5X with the enclosure, camera, modded in the led bar, and have been printing TPU 95A, ABS, and PLA. I have only needed to replace the nozzle once, and had to replace the nozzle fan and 4-in-1 tube from some self inflicted mistakes. Their are a few headaches i have been having with my AD5X specifically with the IFS. I have only had 1 out of the 15 instances be successful with the IFS swapping to the next role of the same material and color of flashforge abs pro. Usually an overnight print I come back to seeing it have filament jam. And it is unable to load in the next spool on the IFS as the abs sitting in the nozzle overnight has jammed it completely. The other headache ive find is when I need to manually extrude filament like calibrating the set **** on the side of the nozzle by sending 100mm through the nozzle. When I set the temperature of the nozzle and then select extrude 100mm it starts cooling down the nozzle instead of staying at the desired temp. The other headache I have is it requiring to be homed before moving every time. Even if it just homed itself from a load/unload filament. Last headache i can think of with the AD5X is eventhough it supports a lot of filamebts, the IFS display only jas so many filaments you can select to load. I hope it gets an "advance" menu that allows for more filament loading. Software wise, its just orca slicer with advertising. I see it as a downside that they dont just make it just orca, but its serviceable. Things this does really well, the color switching is great, its not too loud, print quality and speed is great. The ability to print by usb is great. My multicolor and multimaterial prints have all turned out well. I would recommend this printer if your looking for similar style of printer with single nozzle, multi color, and multi material. Looking forward to the c5p.
For the price and size this thing is crazy bright. I love the fact that i can monitor my prints easily now without having to get up and physically check them when i turn my lights off
I love the ease of installing it and the fun and satisfaction of printing parts for my own machine. Only flaw was that I didn’t get the M3x8 screws for the spool holders and the M3x20 are too short for the spacer that prints out but it is easily modified. Depending what u use to print that part with
Took a
Minute to print the frame but looks fairly good done a little bit finicky with the screws on the ifs one side didn’t want to thread in 1 ****
Holds so living with it
I am still learning how to use it but it's really fun to use and make the 3d prints on. Especially since I have never used a 3d printer before now. These are just a few of the prints I have done. And I was able to fill in the eyes even though. it didn't have it before I did the print.
The enclosure kit fits like a glove.
It took some work but it is time wel spend.

Ich hatte eine Rolle geschenkt bekommen und schon nachgekauft.
Optisch eins der schönsten Filamente die ich bisher gedruckt habe. Jederzeit wieder
The adventure 5Mpro, the Ad5x all working after setting up have another adventure 5M Pro being delivered today to donate to a school. I have bought a couple of starter packs of filament for them.
High quality printer easy to assemble setup and install all required systems, I have installed the enclosure kit on my AD5M as I will be printing with ABS this enclosure kit is a must if you plan to print with ABS or ASA, but if you are printing with PLA and PETG witch is what the enclosure is made of it does a fantastic job with print time and quality as well, it's a good all rounded with good upgrade options as well, I would recommend this printinter for entry level hobbists or those who are running a small printing side business, this was my first 3d printer so in terms of user friendlyness it scores high marks, the customer service is very quick in dealing with a small issue I had at the start but this was resolved unbelievably quickly I don't have any complaints about anything, (Printer 10/10) (customer service 10/10) and (enclosure kit 10/10).
This is the first 3D Printer my husband and I have owned (and used) and we bought it to make Craft Tool Caddies and Dinosaurs and they are FANTASTIC along with all the other designs we’ve printed. My only complaint is that Orca takes some research and patience to learn and frequently drops my printer from Wi-Fi
Looks good and easy to install with one caveat. The two screws that hold the ifs & spacer to the frame are just a little bit short. However, two of the long screws that initially held the build plate down are just the right length. Good thing I never throw screws away.
I printed off a lego flower vase in prototype to check it out and it turned out flawless , very nice filament to print
Excellent filament! If the price doesn't go up, I'll definitely buy more.
I have been using Flashforge for some time now. Their filament has never let me down. So when I went to do this project for my husband and Flashforge had the perfect color. 2 spools later of Olive Green HS Pla and some Black HS Pla and no issues (as always with their filament) was very happy with the results. The only thing I would wish for is that more of their colors were available not always sold out.
Exceptional value and super easy to use so many things you can make for use around the home and workplace, will be upgrading soon
Everything that was installed after I completed my prints fit perfectly, the only issue I had was with the filament detector and I’m not sure if it was my fault or something else but the way it was instructed to be screwed back on felt wrong. I got it to work though and ever since I’ve been 100% satisfied
I did an 3D printer course witch the printer was included.
Learned a lot that day and when I was home the printer was set-up in no time, connected to my network and started to print the same day.
Simply al lovely printer, I print with PLA and PETG.
I got an new hobby right now. ;-)
Works right out the box
2025 i purchased my printer..
Works great 600hrs no problems
Perfect for beginners and Educational.
Kids+
Some updates are good and some are ehh.
But In the end the printer runs great.
I absolutely love this printer. I have been printing almost non-stop since arrival. The ease of setup is amazing. The best feature so far is the auto feed of filament.
I have purchased the enclosure kit and it is installed. I was hesitant about the enclosure at first. Having the files to download the framework was key.
