Should I Buy It?
Given the points above, the Ender 5 Plus 3D printer would be most suitable for those who already have some experience in 3D printing and are looking for an upgrade. However, it wouldn't be ideal for someone just starting their journey with 3D printing due to the need for continuous maintenance and the complexities of operation. If you're willing to put the time and effort into troubleshooting and learning, this could be a valuable tool for you.
This is my first 3D printer. Purchased the 5-Plus because I needed one that could print larger than most home printers. Mechanical assembly was straight forward but documentation was not great. Some wire connections not very clear. For someone with printer experience, probably obvious. Took me a few minutes to figure out. I did a fair amount of research on YT and made a few upgrades before really even trying to print. Metal extruder and Capricorn tube. Also purchased the silent main board....but after my first few prints, I sent it back, never opened the box. Printer is in my garage, and I did not find the noise objectionable. A full set of operating instructions would be a "nice touch". There is very little info provided. First couple of print attempts, printhead slammed into the front left corner....found out the default size for the bed setup in the Creality Slicer for the Ender 5 Plus was 370x370mm, NOT 350x350, this was causing the printer to go off the grid trying to lay down the head clearing print lines. Once I reset that and resliced, all worked fine. Fortunately, no damage done on the first 3 print attempts, before realizing the cause. My first print was the "test rabbit" included on the micro SD (I think) and it came out surprisingly good for my first shot using PLA. I had several items ready to print and used TPU for those. Both came out pretty good (1 very good, the other acceptable due to playing with settings). Next up was PETG. While the first prints were successful, I did have some warping. Had a few complete failures after flipping over the unit to put it in an enclosure and then not going back through the leveling process - big mistake. With a good leveling and now in the enclosure, the next few PETG prints were better than expected. Keeping the enclosure warm (~100F) eliminated the warping. Had to modify some temps but the last two PETG prints were very nice. A little stringing but still pretty good. Still tuning my settings. Bottom line, I'm very pleased with this printer. No, I'm not experienced so maybe I'm not being "picky enough", but despite a few learning failures, I'm very happy with my results. A good set of user instructions would've saved a fair amount of fumbling and cleared up some misunderstandings of what the display was telling me. Again, an experienced printer would probably not have had this problem.

I have been printing with this machine for over three months and have had barely any problems with it. I don't know if this is just for my printer or if it's a common issue. So far the only problems are the runout sensor activating randomly (thus I removed it) and having to have the print bead slowly rise in temperature (ie set it at 60, 70, 75, 80, 85, etc), if you don't you will get a temperature to fail and have to restart the machine. (probably due to not being able to heat up the bed quick enough but this was to get temps 75 and up on the heat bed). Other than these issues it works flawlessly. I have done multiple 200 hr+ prints with no errors or layer skipping. It does heat up the ambient temperature of the room a lot. The design and sturdiness of the machine mean reduced ghosting in prints and reduced print failures due to a shifting bed. I highly recommended leveling the bed every time you mess with the Z lead screws. What I do is lower all 4 corners of the build plate and manually level using the Z lead screws first using a level. This ensures both sides of the build plate are level since when you mess with the Z lead screws with power off it can become unlevel. After you do this you can do your usual manual leveling with a heated bed, then auto-leveling. Also, your bl touch sensor will blink red sometimes if you start the machine in a position that the sensor's probe cannot fully extend/retract. Overall it's a great machine and would buy it again. Just be aware of the slight issues and get familiar with troubleshooting filiment failures more then machine failures.

**Edit** 1. I had requested a refund though Amazon and have disassembled the printer and have made a few discovery's and wanted to update with a new photo and issue. 2. The metal grinding sound I heard on the print head y axis below in the first review was found out to be that the x axis would touch one side before the other end could reach the same location and it was the grinding from the belts trying to force it to reach the end location for the sensor. And when removing the Z axis print bed supports the metal bars that were at different heights at each corner actually fell though the clamps where "screwed tight" and was only being held into place by the pressure of the printers box frame. 3. I really wish I took a photo of it (that was a mistake on my side in hindsight) but the box did not include the foam bracing for the print bed z axis braces and I had to locate my own foam to repackage it for the refund and the foam on the very bottom of the package was partly missing and torn off. (I thought I should mention it as I overlooked this aspect when first making the review and only noticed when having to repackage it and had to look at un-boxing videos to find out what i was missing since it did not fit how it should of. Where to begin...... This thing has taken years off of my life and I have spent days trying to get the darn thing to work. I will hopefully try and outline some of my issues below. **End of Edit** Shipping: 5/5 Was real fast, came 2 1/2 days early, so that was good. Packing: 4/5 Solid packing and everything was nice and visually undamaged before inspection after it was built. Product Support & Community: 1/5 Man-o-man, this thing is like a rare gem.... because finding any support online for this thing rare and anything you can fine is worth its weight. The Ender 3, Ender 3 Pro, Ender 5 and Ender 5 Pro have 100% more of everything when it comes to community driven support and help. The official product support for the Ender 5 Plus is not bad but infuriating when it bowls down to 1 msg a day response due to the +8 gmt so any progress for help is one inch per mile a post. It also does not help that there is no contact # for them and you MUST have a facebook account that is linked to them for the text chat if you do not want to email them. It is also somewhat disheartening that you can see and be notified that the manufacturer has seen marked your response but just chooses to not respond for a day. Software: 1/5 The current installed firmware on the system was at this time of writing is V1.70.1 and its trash, the BL Touch does not cover the whole build plate and only about 3/4th's of it so the auto leveling mesh it jots down is invalid at best and useless at its worst. Download and install your own community firmware at your own risk because the most common one that other users had stopped the auto level function and did not allow me to update the firmware after that even with the use of a UNO R3. To continue on the V1.70.1 firmware it caused my printer to forget where the Z levels were as well as the X and Y locations. This caused my print head to smash into the build plate more than one time and would randomly set the middle of the build plate at a new location causing the print head to go off of the plate and just launch filament off the plate before smashing back into it. Also a quick note on the firmware, when I installed a new community one the BL touch stopped working and so did the bootloader. This did fix my print head slamming into the plate but I was no longer able to do anything to the chipset even after a purchase of a UNO R3 and many hours and messages to the manufacturer. This would not of been so bad since I can manually level it but due to the issues stated in this review it would not of mattered anyway. Product Quality: 1/5 1. The BL Touch is at a small angle. 2. The build plate is forever doomed to not be level due to the Z axis bars and screw being off centered and at different heights at each of the 4 outer corners and the two screws in the middle were at different heights and not fully pushed into the moter. After about 4 hours of manually leveling the plate I found that because of this offset in the plate support bars the build plate will never be level and one or two corners will be out by a considerable amount. 3. The screen that you use to touch and print from came damaged with a few cuts into it. 4. The Y axis that is attached to the print head to go back and forth always made this metal on metal screech that I could not find out why, everything else made the appropriate sound you would expect from a 3D printer. 5. The PSU (Power Supply Unit) of the machine was not installed correctly. My system would wig out every now and again when I moved it around the room to make adjustments and when I removed the under pannel for inspection of the board I noticed that the yellow ground wire was free floating and the screw that held it in place was very very loose. I had to re screw it back into place or the hardware could of been damaged or just stopped working outright. I have submitted a request for a refund and will be trying to send it back due to the product being unable to even print one item without major issue. TLDR: You should look to buy a CR-10 or a Ender 3 if you are looking to get a printer. I would not recommend the Ender 5 Plus at this time as it lacks basic support from manufacturer and has a limited community for it. The Ender 5 and Ender 5 Pro would be the better thing to buy if must get a Ender 5 variant due to the quality control and all the issues that are likely to be brought with it. If more issues arise or I find anything else of notable value I will edit the review to reflect the new finding.
