Product Reviews
- "With it’s self-leveling and self-cleaning mechanisms, along with a large build envelope of 280×280×250mm, the TAZ 6 is a workhorse printer that will produce excellent prints consistently. The TAZ 6 also comes equipped with the v2 Hot End, capable of printing in a wide variety of materials ranging from general purpose plastics to conductive PLA and ABS, Nylon, Polycarbonates and Alloy 910."
3D Printer Guide 2018, 3D Hubs 
- "The TAZ 5 represented the state of the art for FDM 3D printing, and the TAZ 6 does nothing to lose that crown. It is the best FDM 3D printer we have tested. While print quality remains the same, the TAZ 6 is more reliable and easier to use than its predecessor. Plus, the self-leveling print bed and extruder cleaner make printing more consistent and reliable. ... The TAZ 6, though, is the king of the hill when it comes to 3D printing for the well-heeled enthusiast, experimenter or professional who wants fast, reliable 3D printing."
Richard Baguley, Tom's Guide
