Are there any reviewers on YouTube/Rumble/etc. or independent blogs that don’t post affiliate links, aren’t sponsored by the printer company, or had one sent out by the company? Those to me all seem like a conflict of interest.

Yes people need to make money, I’m not blind to that, but they can advertise other things that aren’t a direct conflict of interest.

I’m looking to get my first printer and would like to get info from an unbiased source. I just don’t know enough to weed through the million 3D printer channels.

The Sovol SV06 Ace seems nice with little research as it is large enough to print the project I have in mind and uses open source firmware (Klipper) which is a must for me.

    Good luck finding one. I put zero faith in any electronic reviews because it’s so commonly gamed that there’s no way to know whether you’re being fed bullshit or not and the likelyhood of BS increases when it’s someone who reviews these devices professionally. Even recommendations you get here could be fake or misinformed for all you or anyone else knows.
