I have the Qidi Tech which works great for me. From what I've read the Flashforge has 10mm z-axis shafts the Qidi has 8mm shafts.
They both use MK10 extruders and have all steel construction. Qidi Tech has great support from China and inexpensive spare parts available from Ebay.
We have a pretty active Qidi Tech discussion going on here.

They are both good machines the Qidi can be bought on Ebay for $649.00 shipped.
You don't have to bid just make an offer.

Good choice! There are a few firmware quirks to figure out when you first receive your machine, but so far I am very impressed with the Qidi Tech product. I believe Qidi Tech is purposely differentiating themselves from the other Chinese competitors, and are therefore listening to user feedback, and incorporating iterative changes into their design. Hop on the other thread that rcleav mentioned in his post, and join our Qidi community!
