I bought the Longer 5k pro about a month ago. I've only printed items that were already programmed into the printer. That's because I'm having an issue trying to figure out how to use the slicing software. But the prints have been very clean and I'm happy with it. I had a few issues when I first bought it, but Longer took care of me. I would recommend this printer.
Can you do a video on how to download a file into the printer, to print it? I'm using Cura and I have files saved on my PC, but can't figure out how to download the files to print anything!! Thanks in advance.
Hi Scott, will add a video like that to the 'to make list'. In the meantime there are a load of great sites to download files from: Printables, Thingiverse, Cults3D, MyMiniFactory. Have a google and see if you can find a file that peeks your interest.
Appreciate the comment:) I'd probably pick this printer over the CR10 v2, mainly because the power unit is built into the printer and it's quite a bit cheaper. The separate power block that most of the CR10 designs has is a bit of a pain! Print quality on both those printers would be very similar. But the Ender 5 Plus is better than both, bed slingers designs really do limit the quality and speed of prints. I have also done a review of the Ender 5 Plus.
Oh boy, I saw this in my notifications and honestly thought to myself: _"hmm, I don't remember seeing the _*_normal length_*_ LK5 Pro 3D Printer review"!_ /facepalm

Thanks for sharing your experience Scott, glad you would recommend the printer:)

Thanks for a great review! What would be your main pick between this, the CR10 v2, and the Ender 5 plus?
