being able to print with more than one filament at the same time would be useful.

Being able to use 1.5mm filament.

I think what German RepRap has to offer is very user friendly machines.

[rafbe]

Wifi connection, hobby powder printer

[skaveng]

Open source RepRap software is important to me

I love the simplicity and affordability of your 3D printers. I would love to see a more universal 3D printer (heated bed, wifi, able to print abs, pla, nylon, pva etc.)

Q: Please visit our website and tell us, what’s the most important features our printers have to offer or it is missing.

A: It's not really an important feature, but I really like the lighting you integrate in some of your machines. Its a subtle feature that get neglected in a lot of other machines. A feature that would be ideal (but not economic $$) is multicolored prints through a single hot-end (similar to the mosaic systems).

Your printers appear to have everything I am looking for but... the website is lacking large clear photos of your products from multiple angles, interior photos, videos of products in action, videos of the controls and a simplified drawing showing exterior dimemsions. I want to see that before I would consider purchasing a printer. Thanks!

I don't know allot about the 3D printer to know what is the most important feature yours have, to me it would be reliability though I think. To work correctly and long periods.

What I think all printers are basically missing is a belt feed! Though probably complicated to implement and getting working reliably but great to have would be a belt feed base to build on that a section of a prnt could be done then belt feeds to right and more printing done. In this way a person could print nearly any length object, not just the size fitting in machine.
Also a person could setup to print say 10 items 1 at a time, 1 prints and belt feeds to empty area, print next item, etc.... and when belt wraps around at the end of the feed the items just fall off into a box.

I think the first reasonable cost 3d printer that incorporates a reliable belt feed like that will win the market share! Provided all other aspects of the printer is up to par also!
Such a belt feed would make a 3d printer an actual real production unit.
Think belt feed conveyor at the grocery store check out.

A heated bed and build chamber would be great. I also agree that dual extruders and wifi connectivity would be a solid improvement.
