Pros & Cons
Pros
The replicator creator pro is a dual-extruder 3d printer. It uses flashprint software and simplify3d as a slicer. It prints pla, petg, carbon fiber, and wood grain filament.
The accuracy and precision really blows my mind. The bibo is acceptable, some stepper movements are noisier than usual. The quality and flashforge support is unmatched with a 1-year warranty.
Great printer, aesthetically pleasing, fairly easy to use with no experience. Printer seems to be what it proclaims.
It automates most steps, but to navigate all options it does help to be willing to get a bit technical. Ease of use is very good for someone who has had a 3d printer before, not so great for absolute beginners.

Cons
Blobs all over the place, stringing, and just an overall waste of time and effort. The supplied software makes it difficult, nearly impossible to connect the printer to any computer using usb or wi-fi.
The top of print jobs looks like it came from an ice cream dispenser. Printing must be done very slowly to prevent the belts from slipping. Print shifting, clogging in the head.
Time estimated for return, money reimbursement, and new order is over 10 days. Amazon isn't even listed as an authorized re-seller! However, it seems to me this is more a production packaging issue (i saw a couple of unboxing videos where the acrylic ... Read More
The spool holder design fails here, in that the spools are too far from the enclosure where the tubes pull the filament. No matter how tight the belts are, they slip terribly, because the pulleys are all plastic. The left nozzle will pass by the plast... Read More
The extruders are, thankfully, both at the same height, but they don't seem to be calibrated correctly. The tiny wing nuts are very cheap and cut your fingers trying to adjust the build plate.

Also i dont have other machines to compare to but it does make a bit of fan noise and also when printing sounds a bit like r2d2
