I myself am very weary of getting this printer. While it's hard to turn down a device that costs $1000 for free ($50 shipping), and the printer looks very good, it's a small print bed, 6" x 6" and the filament uses "cartridges" that look like they hold a lot less than a standard reel of filament and costs $50 before shipping. Feels like we are heading towards a system of ink-jet printers. Practically give you the printer, but have to pay a premium for the supplies. I also notice that they use "glue" to the bed. Another thing that you would have to purchase. I know of some people that use a mixture of wood glue and water on glass beds and have good luck, so I'm assuming this is much like it.

This is still a very good deal if it's your only option and expensive material is better than no printer.
