Flashforge Dreamer Question

[mikenmel08]

Does the Dreamer use full size spools of filament? Looking at buying one but the spools they sell on their site are only 1.5lbs

750 gms is a standard size for some manufacturers.

You might be better looking at the creator pro. By all accounts it's the better of the two printers.

Hi, I'll actually try and answer your question...

The Dreamer actually takes standard 600gm rolls rather than the 1kgm, which seems to be more popular with some companies, I guess they can make more money off smaller rolls. Like inkjet printers ripping us all off :/

The other Flashforges mount the spools on the rear of the machine and are not limited to the size, I run 2kg spools off my flashforge original, or you can even run them on the floor on a spool holder.
