Creality CR-10 SE: An Ender-3 S1 Pro w/tons of upgrades for almost the same price, Klipper, Auto Z

Excelent videos. I am waiting for the ender 3 v3 ke review. Hope you release it soon.

[@yeroca]

I like the upgrades on this printer; they all seem to make a lot of sense. I particularly like that they got rid of the bulky ribbon cable they used on previous printers. The only problem is that Creality has sooo many printers that a very similar now. They are creating a bit of a nightmare for new people trying to choose a suitable printer.

[@justinchamberlin4195]

Amen to that...I've been saying for months that Creality has too many models with next to no differentiation between them. Even just the Ender 3 line is a nightmare from both a potential customer's perspective and for whomever is managing their own internal logistics: -V3 KE -V3 SE -V2 Neo -Max Neo -Neo -S1 Plus -S1 Pro -S1 -V2 -original -Pro -Max If I were in charge of Creality's product line, I would keep the two V3s, the Max Neo, the original Pro variant (specially catered to tinkerers and print farmers), and I'd put all the S1 Pro features onto the S1 Plus. Everything else would go, and I wouldn't stop there: the Ender 6, Ender 7, Ender 5 Pro, the Sermoon series, and most of the CR-series would also all be gone, I'd once again merge the features of the Ender 5 S1 into the Ender 5 Plus, and the Ender 2 Pro would be there for newbies and people who love small printers. Dozens of FDM models would be reduced to maybe ten or so, streamlining Creality's parts inventory and simplifying their website dramatically. I'll take this opportunity to praise Sovol for not being afraid to retire older models - the original SV01 is no longer available for sale, same as the SV02 and SV03. Even with having two sizes for each the SV06 and SV07, their entire line of printers fits onto one reasonably-formatted web page, and that includes one listing for factory-refurbished printers (which as of right now include both the SV01 and SV03 but not the SV02 or SV07). It might be a hard decision to obsolete a printer, but guaranteeing parts availability for some period of time after the printer is retired and/or offering owners of obsoleted printers a one-time 20% discount on any purchase of up to $500 should help smooth things over. Not to mention all the opportunities for mods, upgrades, and conversions that can keep an old open-source printer going for a long, long time.

[@awilliams1701]

yeah I still see people buying printers that have manual bed leveling. I'm like....yeah you can get a V3 SE, V3 KE, or this printer and all of that BS is eliminated. They should drop all the older printers.

[@mikebroom1866]

Since I've gotten a K1, I can never go back to a non-enclosed printer. So many more successful bed adhesions

[@nostalgiagameplay3933]

Hi, i hope you don't mind if i asking, but how are you with K1 ?, i was looking at the market for the new 3D Printer and K1 got my attention due to affordable price and fully enclosed compare to Bambu Lab P1S which more expensive in my country. But i've been watching many reviews from KZbin or article say that K1 extruder is horrible and prone clogging or jam when printing in high speed, do you ever experience like that with your K1 ?

Aurora what are you doing to me? I had permission to get the A1 even with the 4 roll feeder, but now you show this Creality 10S SE. I have a highly upgraded 10S Pro even with Direct Drive, BL Touch, Klipper on Pi and Linear rails for Y axis. It is a tank printer, reliable and accurate. But I wanted a smaller machine for smaller detail parts for my train models. Yes the A1 is smaller but How does the SE compare? It costs more, it is bigger but does it even have direct drive, single filament yet it is Creality like my 10S Pro. Oh my head hurts, I did not order the AI Mini, What do you think????

[@Win52D]

I wish this had come out last week 😒 I just picked up an Ender 3 V3 SE this week. While the print quality and speed are slightly better than the Pro I think the CR-10 would have been a better (though pricier) choice. Ah Well...next year I may do a major upgrade to a faster system. Thank you for a detailed analysis!

[@Liberty4Ever]

The CR-10 SE looks like Creality's version of the Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro, with nicer rails but $90 more expensive. I prefer the full Klipper experience of the Neptune 4 Pro and the ability to manually level the bed which is much easier using the data from the auto bed leveling to quickly create a level bed that needs very little auto Z adjustment, although it's difficult to argue with the CR-10 SE's perfect full first layer sheet.

[@24KG24]

personally I think the Orca Slicer is the best!

[@PatrickLSG]

Is there a profile for the cr-10 se?

[@bayutrismienantha2830]

I wonder if sunlu will send you a new dryer. The kickstarter says the humidity is customizable now. 50 is too high (as you said in the review). I think it goes down to 30 now. I don't remember. Hopefully I'll get mine soon. I did the option where you get 2 of them. Probably end up with them before my prusa MMU3 -> MK4 arrives. I also ordered the MMU2 to MMU3 upgrade, but I'm not worried about that. My mk3 doesn't get much use these days.

[@salvatorebilotta1720]

[@lasersight70]

Somewhat important question: I'm interested in this 3D printer and have been watching a lot of reviews of it. the majority of them have issues with ringing or ghosting to a major degree, but I see very little of that in your prints. Are you able to explain what you are doing differently to get better quality than others?

[@petercallison5765]

I guess we get CR 10 KE in couple months and several months later if we are lucky, firmware updates that solve the main problems.

[@Phelnok]

Thank you so much for this video.. I was wondering if you have a cr-10 se profile for orca slicer?

[@milespettingill]

Nice Video!! I'm looking into getting this printer but did you have any issues with bed adhesion? Because I just got an Ender 3 1 pro but nothing would stick to the bed after 3 days so I returned it and ordered this one just wondering becuase I don't want the same problem.

[@carylaue191]

As always, another great video and one that I have been eagerly waiting for. I do have one question and that is whether the stepper motors are 1.8 degree or (hopefully) the better 0.9 degree motors. Many thanks from downunder

[@AuroraTech]

I can't see the step value as the firmware is not open sourced yet, but my best guest is just regular 1.8 degree one.

[@carylaue191]

If that were the case, I would expect that they would publish that important detail to ensure far better print quality. As I said above Aurora - another bloody good review Cheers from downunder...@@AuroraTech

[@senurasenaratne5782]

[@FedericoAlbano83]

Hi Aurora, thanks for the nice video as always. One question: why do you think they put both the cr touch and the strain gauge for levelling instead of just using the nozzle as a probe? do you think this is a better or worse solution comparing with the nozzle direct usage for it? Thanks, ciao

[@AuroraTech]

When using the nozzle for probing, the machine needs to heat up to 140-150°C to allow the filament residue to soften. Sometimes, this process can leave marks on the print bed, especially after changing the filament. The nozzle needs to cool down from temperatures exceeding 200°C to around 150°C. This issue has been observed in both BambuLab and Prusa MK4 machines. Therefore, if your workflow is to preheat the printer first, then slice the model and start the print to save some time, relying solely on nozzle probing may not work as effectively. Additionally, using only the nozzle for probing tends to be slightly slower than using the CR-touch. For this printer, the strain gauge primarily serves the purpose of setting the Z-offset, while the bed leveling relies on the CR-touch.

[@kimmotoivanen]

Bulky corners - doesn't the printer have pressure advance enabled by default?

[@cubegaming7157]

i wounder when someone will implement a large, high flow (quiet) fan, and use lightweight ducting to get airflow to printhead. surely light ducting wouldn't add weight epically with fan removed?

This cr10se and kobra 2 pro are both good, the cr10se hardware is better but the kobra 2 pro prints faster. You may take a look at my recommendation list at auroratechchannel.com, I currently recommend 8 printers out of 100+ machines we tested so far.
