- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseI bought this for my 11 year old child who has the mind of a creative maker! He has had nothing but great things to say about this product! He has been making so many fun items and loves the idea sheets that come with the kit. This is a great quality item for a great gifting price. The design is great and such a cool concept. I highly recommend buying for the creative type person in your life!

- Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2024Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseMy daughter thought this pen was so much fun! I got the used-like new one and it had a problem where the motor didn’t work. Heater was fine. Ended up using my spudger, opening the white case, and noticed the motor wasn’t plugged in the socket on the pcb, which maybe was why it was returned. Plugged it in and we were in business!

- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseWe used it for a few months, but not every day and only for short periods. The extruder got jammed, and it's very difficult to clean, almost impossible. Now it doesn't work (keeps clogging constantly).
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2024Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseMy daughter has been asking for this 3D pen and we told her we will put it on her Santa list. She was so excited to get it for Christmas and made Christmas ornaments for everyone in the Family but after the 3 use it stopped so we asked if it can be replaced and lo and behold it came so fast without any questions. THANK YOU SO MUCH. Daughter is so happy to get to work again. This time key chains for everyeone 🥰
- Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2024Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseI love the concept of this pen however in practice it was underwhelming.
First of all, the filament does NOT go very far. Each 'project' in the booklet required numerous sticks of filament. The 70 sticks of filament included in this kit were not enough to really make much. If I hadn't bought the added 250 pack of filament my child wouldn't have been able to make much at all. The robot shown on the box IS actually a project however it took DOZENS of sticks of filamentfor my child to make it (but it was all rainbow colored because there was not enough of any one color to make it as shown.
NOTE: Note each stick ends up costing between 12 and 22 cents (!). That means the robot 'sculpture' my child made required around $10 of filament. :(
Pros: low temperature extrusion means that materials can be touched prior to hardening and won't burn little hands.
Cons:
1. Expensive to use. Each stick of filament does not go far at all and replacements are expensive. Every little project seems to use at least a half dozen sticks of filament to several dozen. On average, I believe that we're spending ~$5 of filament every time that this pen gets used.
2. Plastic extrusion is very soft and hardens slowly so it is very difficult to make anything 3D. Instead, the best approach is to 'draw' pieces of something on a flat surface and then assemble them.
3. It gets jammed up periodically. We have only ever used official name-brand filament but the pen still seems to get plugged up and stop extruding periodically. With 20+ minutes of fiddling I have been able to coax it back to functioning each time so far but the motor sounds like it is lugging more after each jam. Fingers crossed that I it will last until the next birthday when my child will get a different 3D pen.

5.0 out of 5 stars BONITO DISEÑO Y GRANDES POSIBILIDADES
Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseLa verdad es un producto muy bueno, a mi hija de 5 años le encantó y le pareció muy bonito y los diseños muy buenos. Es un tanto difícil de usar al principio, pues el cargar las barritas de colores puede costarles un poco al principio. Al principio le frustró que no se hacía el 3D directo, si no que tenía que estar uniendo caras en 2D, pero una vez logrado esto, fue un excelente regalo que disfrutó mucho.

5.0 out of 5 stars Überraschend kreativ und unterhaltsam - 3Doodler Start+ im Test
Style: 3D Pen SetVerified PurchaseMeine Tochter hatte sich den 3Doodler Start+ gewünscht, und ich muss zugeben, dass ich anfangs nicht wirklich von der Idee überzeugt war. Ich dachte, es handele sich um ein weiteres Spielzeug, das schnell in der Ecke landen würde. Doch ich wurde positiv überrascht.
Der 3Doodler Start+ lädt Kinder zu einem kreativen Spiel- und Bauprojekt ein, das über das typische Spielen mit Puppen oder Autos hinausgeht. Das Gerät ermöglicht es den Kindern, dreidimensionale Kunstwerke und Objekte zu erstellen, was ihre Vorstellungskraft und Feinmotorik fördert. Meine Tochter verbringt stundenlang damit, ihre eigenen kleinen Kunstwerke zu gestalten und ist begeistert von den Möglichkeiten, die der 3Doodler bietet.
Ein kleiner Nachteil ist jedoch, dass es manchmal schwierig sein kann, an das Nachfüllmaterial für den 3Doodler Start+ heranzukommen, da es gelegentlich ausverkauft ist. Das kann frustrierend sein, wenn man inmitten eines kreativen Projekts steckt und nachfüllen muss. Es wäre schön, wenn die Verfügbarkeit des Materials verbessert werden könnte.
Insgesamt bin ich jedoch angenehm überrascht von diesem Spielzeug. Es hat meine anfänglichen Bedenken zerstreut und meine Tochter zu einer kreativen Spielweise ermutigt. Wenn Sie nach einem Spielzeug suchen, das die Fantasie Ihres Kindes anregt und ihnen hilft, ihre kreativen Fähigkeiten zu entwickeln, ist der 3Doodler Start+ definitiv eine Überlegung wert.
