I’m Denise, a Gen X Maker and 3D printing reviewer for Tom’s Hardware. I’ve tested over 100 3D printers, so you don’t have to: Prusa, Bambu Lab, Snapmaker, Sovol, Creality, Anycubic, Elegoo, Qidi Flashforge, FLSun and more!

You’ll find honest reviews, news, fun experiments, and practical tips to help you get more out of your 3D printer — whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned maker. I break down what really matters so you can print smarter, faster, and with less frustration.

🔥 New videos every week!

Happy Monday! I got three printers down this morning: a Bambu with a clogged AMS, a Prusa that didn't like it's firmware update and a Snapmaker that just said: call technical support. How's your week starting?

I'm back! And I've got a comparison between the CC2 and the P2S. Which would you choose?

Prusa is now letting you use their awesome EasyPrint slicer app with OTHER brands! This is so cool. Have you tried it? My app auto updated, so all I had to do was click Easy Print -->Printer -->add printer.

The H2S is here…are we surprised? Probably not. But the better question is, are you excited?

The Snapmaker U1 is pretty hot! But people said I should have compared it to something else. Should I do a video on the U1 v XL? or U1 v H2D? Or both??

I found this tpu ball for dogs. What do you think about printing dog toys? It was made for a Newfoundland 🤣 so I think I’ll reprint it a bit smaller.
