    Fit my Prusa Mini+ perfectly. Still testing improvements in print quality. Aesthetically, looks great and matches the Prusa Orange well (not a perfect color match, but remarkably close).

    The Sock X is the one to get. A refined design and it goes on snug so not to interfere with cooling. Ive had no issues with this whatsoever, but its helped a lot with PETG (keeping it from getting stuck on the heater block/upper nozzle). Also Prusas documentation indicates their PID algorithms adapt quite well to any new hotend addition without manual tuning. So far Ive seen this is true and the hotend on my Mini+ heats up very rapidly, slightly overshooting and maintaining stability throughout the print.

    Fits like a glove! This is perfect if you are looking to add a silicone sock to your heat block! I dont know if it really does anything for the heat block, but I will say it helps keep the small boogers off of it! Might also save you a severe burn if you touch it by accident.

    My first impression is that the fit is exact. It took a while to continuously find the right spot to massage to get it to snap into final position. The upshot is an exact fit with no ugly slack for air to get to the block. Way better than the socks for my old MMSP. So far, so good.

    Sock fit Prusa MINI perfectly. After lots of use it has not stretched or looks like it’s going to fall off. The temps are a bit more solid while printing. I would recommend since it’s a relatively small cost compared to the time you’d spend cleaning and replacing heater blocks.

    Fits perfectly on my Prusa Mini+. So far I have only used it with PLA at 185 degrees C and it works great. There was a very slight odor during the first few minutes of printing, but no other issues in dozens of hours of printing.

    IF you own a 3D printer you will have failed prints from time to time and you will always have some small amount of plastic want to stick to your hot end. This can eventually foul the hot end making repairs difficult to impossible including changing nozzles. This eliminates that concern. Went more than a year without one and eventually had to replace my hot end. Since Ive started using these the hotend is never messy. It is consumable so getting multiple units is important. Order new ones when you install your last one. Shame that the mini didnt ship with one. CR-30 did but is Mandatory on that printer. Will never do without one again.

    No problems at all.

    I got this for my 3D printer and it’s working well so far, nice fit for my Prusa Mini 3D printer I wish it was a little bit thinner as it seems to come close to getting in the way of the nozzle

    Great price on this product that is exactly as described. Fits perfectly on my mini and only took seconds to install. I will order these next time I need some, but since they came with 3 and seems to be a really good quality, it will be a while before I need more.

The Prusa Mini Silicone Sock X by levendig | dsgn is a custom designed heat block sock made specifically for the Original Prusa Mini 3D Printer series. Using a new manufacturing process, the Silicone Sock X is more durable than previous iterations and is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 300°C. The Sock X stabilizes the hot end temperature, providing a more uniform temperature during printing which results in superior print quality. With its custom design, the Sock X was custom designed to enable proper airflow from the cooling fan with also covering the thermistor screw holes so that plastic buildup does not occur on the thermistor screws allowing the user to exchange thermistors when needed. The Sock X also protects the hot end during print failures, preventing filament blobs from forming which can cause irreparable damage to the hot end during print failures.
