Tom's Hardware Verdict

Creality’s K3 is a solid entry into the swelling tool changer market, but without the lid and TPU Kit ready at launch, we’re left wondering what else this machine is capable of doing. The overly large spool holders impose a frustrating limit on the brands of filament you can use. Still, this is a good printer for fans of the Creality lineup who only need PLA or PETG.

Reasons to buy

+ Tool changer

+ Very little waste

+ Speedy

Reasons to avoid

- Only four colors

- Loud

- Top hat and TPU printing kit not available at launch

- Spool holders are too large for many 3rd party spools
