Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the exceptional print quality, noting that multi-color prints turn out amazing with very little waste. Buyers also appreciate the fast delivery service, with orders often arriving in less than a week alongside secure packaging. Setting up the machine is described as simple, making it a great purchase for anyone interested in 3D printing.
Some reviewers were not happy with technical errors, mentioning unexpected jams and persistent mechanical issues during use. A few consumers also felt that the software requires further improvements to handle complex tasks smoothly.
The technical performance of this printer is outstanding. All specifications are met. It does exactly what the producer promised during the launch campaign. The missing star is for failing to deliver the top cover on a reasonable timeline. On the other hand, delaying this accessory is for a good reason : they want to deliver top quality, no compromise due to deadlines constraints.
Very open and quick to respond to any inquiries while having an entire wiki to troubleshoot their machines. The U1 is a phenomenal machine with excellent quality and a robust parts dialogue to order from if needed. Their opensource stance is a breath of fresh air in the current 3d printing ecosystem.
when it works it is great. Currently repairing a failure of the toolhead PCB board which failed after about 200 hours of printing

Dear James,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear that you’ve been happy with the U1’s performance when it’s working properly.
We’re sorry to hear about the Toolhead PCB failure after around 200 hours of printing. We’ve reviewed your support case and can see that our technical support team has already identified the Toolhead 3 PCB as the likely cause and arranged a replacement PCB for you.
We hope the replacement resolves the issue and gets your U1 back to printing reliably. We appreciate your patience while working through this with our team.
Warm Regards,
Snapmaker
The u1 is an awesome printer. Runs like a champ and no major issues in very frequent use. So far much more reliable than the creality I have. All parts received have been good quality. I will likely buy another printer in the future.
Snapmaker has the best electronics customer support, and one of the most welcoming and incredible communities in the world. There are many machines out there, but only Snapmaker comes with this much heart - and you can’t just make that in a factory. Snapmaker and its people are something wonderful.
I was looking for a good multi head 3D printer, and after a lot of research I decided to go with the Snapmaker U1. What a machine!
I'm so happy using it! I thought that I had endless possibilities with my old printer, which had only 1 header and 1 filament, a basic one, but now that I have this, I can make ANYTHING I want.
The shipping was OK, The quality of the printer is really good and I'm enjoying it a lot.
I would recommend it to anyone who's looking for something like this.
No hard copy manual available. They closest they have in an on line, non printable PDF. To print it you have to copy and paste each paragraph of text and photo to create a printable file.
Two weeks in, the 3 d printing module has jammed up, with filament wrapping around the feeding gears and locking it up. I have broke one nozzle trying to remove it because every recommended method by Snapmaker does not work. So, now my 3d printer is broken. I have switched to laser. I installed the laser module and the software refuses to recognize the 10 watt laser and says it is a 2 watt laser. It is not a two watt. It is a 10 watt.
So far, every interaction with this overpriced piece of garbage has been like getting hit in the groin with a baseball bat.

Dear Jae,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear about the issues you encountered with both the 3D printing and laser modules, as well as the frustration caused by the troubleshooting process.
We’ve confirmed that you have already submitted a support request regarding these issues, and our technical support team has received it and is currently reviewing the case. We’ve also escalated the matter internally to help ensure it receives further attention.
We understand how frustrating it is when the machine is not usable as expected, and we sincerely appreciate your patience while our team works through the issues with you.
Warm Regards,

I love this U1 machine. I few things I think need improvement are the docking for the toolheads, they tend to need to be fine-tuned. I would like to see a version that has 6 heads and a 350mm plus build volume for a decent price point. Otherwise this is a great machine and has been the reason I started printing in multi color again.
I love my U1, the savings of filament when doing a color print is amazing. The time savings is amazing. Just 5 seconds to change filament instead of 50 to 55 seconds on my Bambu P2S. I'm not afraid to print color prints anymore because they take so little time compared to my P2S. I have not had any problems with my Snapmaker U1 at all for the 3 months thatI haveowned it.
Buying from Snapmaker was one of the easiest processes I've ever had in terms of buying. Shipping was quick and the printer itself, Amazing!!! I had been debating between the U1 and the Anycubic S1 Max for sometime and decided to sacrifice build volume for low waste multicolor printing and this was for sure the correct decision. After only 20 hours of printing, I have yet to experience any negatives compared to my old Anycubic. I highly recommend buying from Snapmaker and will continue to give them my full support
I own several printers from different brands and the U1 is by far my new favorite. The delivery and service I have received from Snap maker is excellent I highly recommend the U1 for all levels of enthusiasts.
