Ultimaker 2 3D Printer review

The Ultimaker 2 has a nice, well-thought out design and a large print platform for its compact physical size, promising to be a great printer for 3D enthusiasts who don't have lots of office space.

The Ultimaker 2 3D printer has a great compact design, uses standard consumables, and works very quietly. It has a large print platform, and the print plate is removable.

The printer performs inconsistently when printing large objects, can't print directly from a computer, and requires manual calibration. It's also very expensive.

The Ultimaker 2's convenient and compact design isn't enough to justify its grossly over-the-top price tag.
