Does anyone have any experience using the cubify range of printers. I find it odd not even one of their printers are trending or being mentioned here?

Yes we use Cubify printers. Cube 2, Cube 3 and Cube Pro Trio. Awesome printers. Starting a set of prints on all three right now.
yes we use CubePro Duo. Good printer big printbed but not trouble free.
I own a BFB 3Dtouch printer
Garbage garbage garbage. They are over priced pieces of junk. You can’t work on them, plastic is around 175/kg and you are stuck working with 3d systems. Buyer beware.
I just bought a Cubepro Duo, nice printer but…
You have to use their filaments
You have to use their slicer
The last point is even worse than the first point
So, if I have to buy another printer I would by een open one
I very much agreee. We have had the CubePro and the Cube3 for about 4 months, and the experince is overall good. It depends a little on what you are looking for in particular. We are also a reseller, and have overall positive feedback from customers, but of course up and downs.

I own five Rapman 3.2 modified, this model is the first ancestor of the CubePro !!!
And well I have experience using a wide range of 3Dsystems printers!
what are your doubts?

I am interested in sharing experiences though.
It seems that the head is blocked does anyone know how to fix that?
I have a second gen cube. It has no heated bed, its bed leveling is a pain, its filaments are too expensive and I have had longer prints fail on it. Overall I has been a bad experience. Some of these issues might be why they aren’t around.
Prodotti fantastici. Chi non li ha provati non può comprendere.
Ci sono solo tre parole per descriverli: affidabilità, facilità di utilizzo, assistenza.

Hey there,
I have used both the Cube 3 and CubePro printers. They are nice machines and put out good quality prints, but the cost of materials (3.5 to 4x cost of MakerBot filament, per gram) make them expensive to run for a custom printing business.
I was a beta tester on the Cube Pro and the Cube 3. The Cube 3 is very loud but offers overall good print quality. The dual extruder is really nice and the ability to change the nozzle with every new cartridge of filament makes jamming a lot less of an issue. The Cube Pro is a great piece of hardware, great build area, heated enclosure, rigid strong components. I think the software still needs some tweeks although there have been some releases recently that might have addressed some of these problems. Over all I think they are great institutional printers but might not be the “hackers” first pick. If you pick up the latest Make magazine you can read our full reviews of the Cube 3 and Cube Pro. I wrote the Pro review for the magazine.

I have a Cube Gen II. For the price, (at the time) it has decent resolution and is very easy to use. The downfall is the brutal software that is clumsy and ugly. The only reason I want to upgrade printers is for a larger print volume

I have a Cube3… After the phenomenally long waitlist to actually receive one (Pre-ordered June 2014, received Nov!), it is a decent beginner/intermediate printer…
Not a super fan of their paired down printing interface, but the 70 micron prints look great… I would like to have an option to make the interior of parts completely solid, but no dice.

Hi, I own a cubex duo, it took me a year to achieve a good print quality and without 3dsystem rules ; -) It 's a good hardware, same as cubepro but you’ve to upgrade it with new hot end and kisslicer. It’s also available for cube 2. With those tweaks you will have a standart 3d printer

I don’t really like that their material is not only proprietary, but also 6 times as expensive as it is on my Makerbot, and they take FOREVER to ship. They are currently at least two weeks on back order to ship anything material wise. That being said, the physical build quality of the printer is amazing. Their slicing software seems inefficient though compared to MakerWare. They are trying to be the Apple of 3D printing, which I understand, but they have some logistical bugs to work out before they have it nailed down. I still do most of my printing on my makerbot rep 2, but for bigger builds, I use the cube.

Hey! Actually it is not even close to be as loud as the Replicator mini from Makerbot.
