A few months ago I was asked by Gearbest if I wanted to review the very latest Ortur Obsidian 3D Printer? A printer with a very nice low price level, but executed in high-end materials and equipped with all luxury functions that you normally only find on much more expensive machines. Of course, I immediately said I wanted to review the printer and about a week ago I got a message that the printer had indeed been sent to my address.
Since I was not at home when the 3D printer was delivered, my neighbor took delivery of the box, and that box had quite a few damages. Both cracks and obvious dents. I would not have accepted this box myself, but unfortunately, my neighbor did.

Actually, I planned to unbox and assemble the 3D printer in a live stream, but given the damage to the box, it seemed more sensible to assemble the printer first and then stream the first print with the machine.

It soon became clear that this was not going to happen because almost every part that can break is actually defective. Although the printer was packed very well, and shipped in very thick foam and in a thick cardboard box, the UPS deliverers must have managed to play a game of football with the box, because the printer housing, the print bed, the X axis, the double Z axis and even the display are all bent, dented or broken. Not one part of the printer is intact, while the printer is really made of very solid thick metal. Much thicker than many other printers I have here.

I would really not be doing the 3D printer, and the Ortur brand, a good service if I were to review this scrapped printer. The printer is more severely damaged than repairable. You can never straighten metal that is really bent, you have to replace it. And if almost all metal parts are bent, the printer will never be perfectly square again.

Unfortunately, I cannot review the printer for this reason, I would have liked it differently. Now, I am going to ask Gearbest to check via Ortur if it is possible to receive another review unit. One that might be shipped with a carrier other than UPS, because I'm sure it's not the packaging, nor the build quality of the printer. This printer really died during transport to my studio.
