HICTOP Ender 3 v2 Upgrades Flexible Build Plate PEI Steel Sheet 235x235mm Works for Ender 3/Ender 3 Pro/Ender 5 3D Printers

Ive had mixed success with my ender 5 pro and its stock mat. I needed something that performed better. I have read up on pei sheets and havent had the courage to try it until this past week. I have those one a chance and Im very glad I did. Very reasonably priced and its performed beyond my expectations. Im never going to go back to that stock magnet mat. The price/performance ratio on this is fantastic. No more bad first layers. I dont have to print rafts anymore. Im most likely going to switch to this on my ender 3 v2 even though I love its glass bed. I think this is just a better solution.

I ordered this product because i was having trouble with my prints sticking, i am new to 3d printing, these pei sheets have worked great for me with pla and pla plus so far!

This is a great PEI sheet. It looks amazing, it feels great and most of all IT STICKS! Ive had sheets before where the sticky side did not adhere to the bed and would start to peel up with use. This one is sticking well so far. Unfortunately I am unable to judge its performance while printing, because my printer is having issues, but I am very happy so far. Will update once I can print. Also, they should use the same adhesive they use for the underside, on the logo. As it stands I only have a HICT P lol. The O took a vacation.

Update 2-7-2022 On 2-6-2022 The company wrote back saying that the pictures I submitted does not help troubleshoot the problem, the pictures here are the same I sent them, you can clearly see the PEI flakes stuck in the print, it is obvious the PEI is flaking off from being stuck to the prints as it releases, and they do not come off. On 2-7-2022 they wrote back asking me if I had checked bed level or adjusted the nozzle? You can clearly see in the pictures that the print itself is perfect, no scraping the bed from too small of a gap and no line separation or deformities from the bed level leaving too large of a gap. I own a business; we have 6 printers, and we are not new to them. Three printers have a different brand of textured PEI plates and they do not do this. Update 2-2-2022 I have been back and forth in contact with the seller asking them if they would please exchange the two plates that were only a few days out of the Amazon 30 day return window and I have received nothing but excuses, on 1/30/2022 they replied they would give an answer the following day and they did not so I wrote them again at the end of the day on 1-31-2022 and they replied wanting video of the issue and wanted me to send it to an email outside of Amazons message system which is against Amazon rules for the seller. I wrote them back and told them I would not reply to any outside communication from Amazon and I attached several pictures of the issue. 2/1/2022 They wrote back and said they sent the pictures to their engineer and would give me an answer later, I wrote them back asking if they realized I am a business, and that the situation has my printers tied up and losing money? 2/2/2022 they write back saying (but we are in spring holiday now, we will wait for the engineer, please understand) Needless to say they do not care and are giving every excuse they can, not a way to do proper business. At this point I will order different brand PEI plates and call it a loss. If you have issues with their products you now know what to expect. UPDATE 1-28-2022 At first I could not praise these bed plates enough but now after some time I just noticed that the PEI on the rough sides in flaking off and getting into my prints, I have their brand on three of my 6 printers and unfortunately did not notice the issue until I had 18 prints printed in black with the issue. Again did not notice at first because the light has to hit it right to see it so I am 18 prints deep at 11 hours per two prints at a time that I cannot use nor sell. Thats 99 hours of print time and two spools of filament at 25 bucks each. This REALLY puts my company behind on sales and cost us a lot of money. These are lids for machine die organizers we sell for 19.99 each and are one of our best sellers so were out basically 360.00 due to a faulty product. Now compound that by how long it takes to remedy the issue and another 99 hours of print time...not a good situation. At this time I can no longer condone telling people this is a good product. See my pictures and you will see they were absolutely great at first, then you will see the picture of the product stacked up with the PEI flakes embedded in them. These print top side down so it shows horribly on the tops when the light hits just right and are not usable. *Origional Feedback before issues: I cannot say enough good about these PEI plates, the textured finish leaves a great effect on my prints that we sell as a company. One of our tool & Die holders we print the lid upside down, so we get the texture in the top of the lid and it looks fantastic. The plates let PLA stick extremely well with the bed at 60 degrees C and as they cool right around the 36 degree C range I can be across the work area and hear my parts actually release. Our plates have hundreds of prints on them now with zero issues, every 10 prints we pull them off and wash them with Dawn dish detergent and hot water then dry them with a towel...do not use a microfiber cloth as they leave a residue and do not use alcohol...Dawn and hot water is all that is needed and it removes any residue. Watch the video with sound up, right about the 24-25 second mark you will clearly hear the parts release from the plate once it has cooled to 36 degrees C ...love it!
