The Popular Budget-Friendly Flashforge Adventurer 5M 3D Printer Drops to a Mere $132 Shipped
The best price I've seen for a solid entry-level 3D printer.
Flashforge's budget-friendly 3D printer, the Adventurer 5M, is now available for an incredibly low price of $132.05 on AliExpress. This deal is part of the AliExpress Back to School Sale and comes with free shipping. The printer, which would normally cost $227 on Amazon, is being sold directly from FlashForge's official store on the site.
The Adventurer 5M is Flashforge's most affordable CoreXY printer, making it one of the cheapest CoreXY models from any reputable brand. CoreXY printers typically have a more stable structure than other types, with the print head moving while the motors remain fixed. This setup can improve print speed and precision.
The printer boasts an impressive build volume of approximately 8.7 x 8.7 x 8.7 inches, thanks to its open bed design. For those who prefer a more controlled environment, a $39.99 closed chamber kit is available to convert the open bed into a closed chamber. The printer can print at a speed of up to 600mm/s with 20,000mm/s² acceleration and can produce a benchy model in just 14 minutes.
The printer features a 32mm³/s high-flow nozzle with a 280°C direct extruder, which can reach a temperature of 200°C in as little as 35 seconds. The Adventurer 5M comes with a solid build quality, as all structural components are made of metal. The 4.3-inch color touchscreen control panel is intuitive and easy to use, and the printer supports essential features like auto leveling and vibration compensation. Assembly is quick and straightforward, allowing users to start printing their first object in minutes.
