Perfect first printer!
Love love love this 3D printer. It is a first for us, and is for my 22 year old. We are having a blast and so far, everything is easy and prints great! Easy filament change. I recently printed Hogwarts! Beautiful!

Buy with confidence, this thing works!
This 3D printer is amazing. Very fast, very accurate and reliable.Compared to my 4 year old Creality 10s printer, it is lightening fast.Makes beautiful prints with stock settings using their recommended slicer, Orca-Flashforge.Nice touch screen with graphic display of the print project you are picking which is really helpful if you have a lot of STL's on your USB drive.Cooling fan is very loud, be aware.No Micro SD card, USB thumb drive and Wifi only.

Worst brand ever - Avoid if you value your money/time
UPDATE: 2 Months later2 months in and this is the worst printer I have owned. While the hardware itself is "fine" and works, the software/firmware have been a nightmare. The original software options barely functioned for remote monitoring and in the last couple of weeks they released Orca-FlashForge and FlashMaker.Problem with BOTH software is they were basically release as beta software and the remote functionality is broken. I spent 2 weeks with tech support and they have basically been useless. I've gotten better support from Comcast which says a lot.I also printed the official Flahsforge enclosure and bought acrylic panels for 50 bucks. Bought the camera for 25. Both parts being officially from Flashforge you would think they can work together but the camera cable was too short. Their supports response was it is indeed to short and I should source my own extension cable...My experience has been poor and I would never suggest this brand to anyone else. Avoid like the plague and spend you money elsewhere.Original:Wanted to wait a month before writing a review so I could fully use it and test.To those who don't want to read a novel. Its a good printer with LOTS of potential but as with most things you shouldn't buy on how good it "could" be.Out of the box the unit setup was quick and self explanatory. I last printer i purchased was the Creality K1 which had its own set of defects (which they fixed) so I was prepared for a hassle. Turns out everything was simple and I was printing within 30min.The issue begun happening after a few hours of printing. What everyone says about the included bed is true, its crap and you should get a replacement. I contacted Flashforge and they sent me their PEI bed right away when I mentioned the issue so anyone who purchases should be the same.With the bed issue resolved I can reliably get good quality prints. I use PLA and PETG with no issues and quality is equal to my K1 and just as fast. Any issues from are slicer or user error.Now for my real gripes starting with the software. The 5M uses Klipper which is awesome but its locked down and unless you super savvy there is no way to easily unlock its full potential. They have github page for the klipper but its useless for the average person.Next is the FlashPrint software, Its ok but very limited. Flashforge themselves suggests Orca slicer which is indeed great but then you cannot wirelessly sent prints and have to use a thumb drive. I tried using FlashCloud and Polar3d to remote monitor the printer and that also feels lacking in control and reliability. Creality Cloud despite all the spam is significantly better for remote management and control.I also purchased the Adventurer 5m camera direct from FlashForge. It took over a month to arrive and their communication TERRIBLE but I did end up getting it. While capturing time lapses is great, using it with FlashCloud or Polar 3D is terrible and again, remote management sucks.Lastly lets talk these hotends. Quick swap is great but 30 bucks per hotend is terrible. Luckily this is my secondary printer and I don't print abrasive materials but if you go through hotends regularly your wallet is going to cry.There is a lot of potential and promised updates. They CLAIM there will be full klipper support, OEM led lights, enclosure kits and more but they are radio silent as to when. I got time to wait and the ability to tinker on my own but if this is your first printer or you want something feature rich with no bugs, look elsewhere. My K1 with upgraded hotend/extruder has been reliable and I would highly recommend that over this (when its on sale)

Crazy fast and quiet but can use some adjustments
I had a flashforge creator pro for a few years until it quit. Bought this one about a week ago and it is great in some aspect and can use some improvements. Setup is fast and I started printing in no time and it heats up pretty quickly vs the creator pro. The wireless connectivity is great (using flashprint). The quality of the prints using PLA is great, not so much with ABS given that it is open and cannot maintain the temperature required for ABS and the cooling fan is not functioning properly. Magnetic build plate is great even though I had to use the provided glue stick to make PLA stick. The printing speed is crazy fast and the vibration compensation is great. A few things that I would have loved to have are a internal light and a direct USB connection to the computer. Also, it doesn't go to sleep mode and some fan "don't know which one" stays on all the time even after cooling and sitting idle for a long time which is annoying. I, now, turn it off after printing to quiet the fan's noise. I also noticed that the controls for raising and lowering the build plate do not work sometimes after finishing a print and I have to turn it off and back on to make it work. Most likely returning it and trying something else.

A new hobby for us
I have wanted a 3d printer for years, but never bought one until now. My 10 year old son asked for one for Christmas, so this is technically his printer.Thus far we are both loving it. This one was easy to set up. First test print was going in less than 30 minutes of unboxing and set up.Just printing models we find on the internet, but very happy with it thus far. No issues.My only minor gripe is that the written insructions are a bit lacking IMO. Unit comes with a flash drive which I didn't use until recently, and then found there is a bit of uaeful info and software on it.
