K2 SE 3D Printer, 500mm/s High-Speed Printing, Support Multi Color 3D Printing Needs CFS, Solid Metal Build, Auto Leveling, Direct Drive Extruder, Quick-Swap Nozzle, 220×215×245mm Print Size

The K2SE is an excellent printer for users who are still interested in learning and growing within the 3D-printing ecosystem, but who no longer want to spend the majority of their time troubleshooting basic hardware issues. While it may not be a flagship, top-tier machine by today’s standards, it represents a significant step forward—especially when compared side-by-side with older platforms like the Ender 3 Pro. Out of the box, the K2SE delivers a level of refinement that once required extensive upgrades on earlier printers. Features such as automatic bed leveling, filament runout detection, a sturdier frame with vibration-dampening feet, and a properly supported raised Z-axis bed all come standard. The addition of cloud access and a fluid web interface—complete with optional root access for advanced users—bridges the gap between a consumer-friendly machine and a system that still rewards technical curiosity. My first print, a simple Kirby model, was intentionally done with minimal tuning to get a baseline feel for the machine. The results were impressive, especially coming from years of compensating for aging components on my Ender 3. With that printer long overdue for a new extruder, I had grown accustomed to managing variables that simply don’t exist on the K2SE. The consistency and reliability here are immediately noticeable. Although I didn’t have the budget to add the multi-filament CRT system at launch, the printer’s upgrade path is clearly well thought out. Planned expansions like an enclosure, camera monitoring, and multi-material support make it easy to justify future investments. I would also welcome a firmware or hardware update that introduces Bowden extruder support, as it could further improve filament switching speeds and overall print performance. As someone who has stuck with the same Ender 3 since long before touchscreens, CR-Touch, and modern quality-of-life upgrades became commonplace, it’s refreshing to see Klipper remain a core component of the K2SE. For users who are on the fence about moving away from heavy DIY builds, this printer strikes a compelling balance—offering reliability and speed without sacrificing control. Perhaps the most underrated benefit is time savings. The K2SE is noticeably faster than older models, and its intuitive touchscreen interface makes it accessible even for non-technical users in my household. After setup, my wife and children can confidently start prints on their own, which speaks volumes about the usability of the system. Print quality alone justifies the upgrade for patient users. While some may find the stock cooling fans slightly underpowered, the machine compensates with excellent compatibility for multi-tool and threaded expansion systems—an advantage over many Bowden-dependent designs that require significant modification for production or multi-material workflows. And as a final bonus, despite being scheduled for February delivery, the K2SE arrived weeks early. Getting this machine ahead of schedule was the perfect way to confirm that the upgrade was absolutely worth it for the value price point.

I bought the Creality K2 SE 3D printer for my 14-year-old who is just getting started with 3D printing, and it has been a great choice for beginners. He was excited to try it out, and the setup was simple enough that he was able to get everything put together and running on his own. Once it was up and running, he started printing right away and has already made all kinds of different things. From small gadgets to fun projects he finds online, the printer has handled everything really well so far. It prints quickly and the results have been impressive for a beginner-level machine. What I like most is that it encourages creativity and learning. He enjoys experimenting with new designs and figuring out how things work, which has made the printer both fun and educational. Overall, this has been a great starter 3D printer. It’s fast, fairly easy to set up, and perfect for someone new to 3D printing. My son absolutely loves it and has been using it constantly since we got it.

This printer is pretty awesome. Here is the biggest catch to it. We have spent hundreds of dollars on the app and or validating what we could buy between buying filament and everything else. This thing does not connect properly. It is very technical if you are not smart. This is a terrible thing to buy. I’m a very educated person and so are the other 3 to 4 people in my household that have all tried to use this thing it will not let you change individuals to print off it and even the amount of money you spend to buy credit credits and or other items that you want to purchase in the store do not print properly. This sucks don’t buy it even though this equipment is awesome. This is the worst thing I wish I’d never bought. I do not say this in the test and or ignorance I have studied. I have read up. I’ve looked at forums. I’ve been on Reddit. Everyone says this creatality is extremely difficult and we have definitely found this out firsthand. I would definitely return this, but I think my window has closed. It sucks when you buy a product and you have it for like 2 to 3 weeks before you get to use it but then your window to return it is closed. The app does not match what is online and or if you have more than one person that wants to print, you cannot share unless the other person is logged out and even if the person is logged out, it does not always match the same, so for example, I have tons of money and credit on my account, but it will not let me print out certain apps and or creations then it tells me that it will work on our item that we have purchased, but then it’ll say it does not work. It will not print. 3-D printer is a scam. It sucks. It has great potential but this is not the one for you. Don’t waste your money too much money.

This printer assembled very quickly due to the manufacturer doing most of the work for you. Although the instructions could have been better, thankfully there was a detailed listing of the parts and fasteners, including drawings and dimensions of each.Assemble was quick and straightforward. Although I am new at 3-D printing, I have friends that have done it for years. Several of them were very impressed with the improvement to this line of Creality printers, such as auto-bed leveling, auto-loading of filament, print speed, etc. I personally could not be more pleased with this printer!

First - I wrote a out of the box review - I do not know if this review will replace the old review or compliment it. Just in case this review replaces the old review - I will repeat a few of the important points from the previous review. I must also say it helps a great deal if you are already familiar with Ender because about 80% or more of the machine is built the same way as the older models. If this is your first Ender - read the instructions and check to make sure you have all the parts. Placing the parts where you can easily tear open the bags and not having to search for a part cuts down the assembly time. While the assembled printer takes up a small footprint - give yourself room to work. This is my 3rd printer - my first one I made from scratch. It took about 2 weeks to get it assembled and another two weeks to get it to print properly. Most of that time was spent modifying the Martin software so it would run my machine! My second one was an Ender V1. It took me about 90 minutes to assemble and about 30 minutes to get it to work. Over the years - I modified it to the point it was virtually impossible to tell the difference between it and a V3. I replaced it because a least one of the motors was going bad and I did not want to do the repairs. I picked this printer for 3 reasons 1) it was on sale, 2) I am now wheelchair bound and needed a printer that did not require too much assembly, and 3) I had worked with Ender before and knew how they worked. I was able to keep some of the old parts from the old machine (but threw most away). Everything was packaged well, but the small parts are in plastic bags that you have to tear or cut open - so be careful you do not lose any parts! There are only three parts to be assembled. They are the base, the frame, and the screen. I had no trouble getting the machine together - did have some trouble getting it to work. I was never able to reach customer service which ranged between "Who are you Kidding?" and "Did you really expect any?" I did some internet searching (there is lots of stuff out there - many are good YouTube videos). I found I needed to do an update - it got a bit complicated here. Part of the update was done using the hidden slot on the LEFT side of the removable screen and part was done using a SD card on the LEFT side of the Unit. (Ender does NOT tell you this on their website!). I was already angry when I tried their slicer and it did NOT work - after not being able to get customer service again. I deleted their slicer and used my Cura. After doing a few prints using Cura (which works fine) a couple days later, I reinstalled their slicer and did some troubleshooting - I found I had a setting wrong. I use both Cura and their slicer now because of the differences. Each one has some features the other one lacks. One example: The Cura has a large number of preset configurations, and it is easy to save a custom configuration. The Creality titles the g-code with a filename that includes the estimate print time. I tried customer service and actually someone! They did give me the manual settings for generic Pla - when I asked how to save those settings they send me to a useless link. I will research how to save one day - but will use my Cura for generic pla until then. What I like about the machine. 1} While it is nosier (a trade-off for higher speed) - it is still much quieter than the original Ender I had before modifications. 2)The new ribbon and print head are a big improvement. The filament is easier to change, and you can easily make prints with different colors! I do not miss the bowden tube and individual wires at all! 3) I like to put my prints on a card. The old machine used a micro-SD card - and I quicky bought an adapter! The new machine takes regular SD cards and no adapter is needed! 4) I really like the automatic leveling feature. There have been times I have spent hours getting my manual table set the way I wanted. So far - it has worked great. I have only made about 50 prints - so I cannot tell you how reliable it is in long term use. 5) The quality of prints is much better than my old machine. I am not sure whether this due to being a better machine or the stepper motor needing replacement. What I do not like: 1) The SD card has to be put into its slot upside down. 2) The controls and the SD card slot are all on the left side of the printer. I think putting the computer connection and the SD card would have been much better on the front of the machine. 3) Updating is like putting up a Christmas tree. The firmware is done with a hidden C connector on the left side of the detachable screen (this is like putting up a Christmas tree). Fine details on display etc. are put in using the SD card (this is like putting the lights on the tree). Once you figure out what goes where - it is the easiest printer to update I have had. 4. This one is a mixed bag. I do not give their customer service good marks - but the fact I found solutions on the internet was a good thing.

For a base model 3d printer the k2 se is awesome. It wasnt overly expensive and work incredibly well. Ive made 100s of prints with it and its still running strong. Great value works perfect. Im buying another creality printer when I decide to upgrade. Prints look amazing creality cloud works great. Just a really good experience so far from this machine.

I bought the Creality K1 SE a little over a week ago. I had an Ender 3 S1 before this printer. The K1 SE is so, so much easier to print with right out of the box! I definitely recommend it. It's a good way to get the improvements that were built into Creality's K1C, but at a nicer price. Plus, you can install your own version of Klipper if you want. I've printed 10 or so things in PLA and PETG, and I haven't had any failed prints. The automatic bed leveling has just worked. I have not had any problems with bed adhesion. On the Ender 3 S1, I only used a textured PEI plate, but the smooth build plate on the K1 SE works fine. The extruder cooling fan also seems ok for what I've printed so far. I printed an overhang test and the 75 degree overhang looks fine, but it had trouble at 80 degrees. The bridging test looked ok. (The longest bridge was only 25 mm on that test however.) I've put the printer in a soft-sided enclosure that I had used for my old Ender 3 S1. (It's easy to find similar encolsures.) The LEDs on the K1 SE are bright enough to see inside which is something that I was concerned about before I purchased. However, this enclosure makes it difficult to access the back of the printer where the filament spool is mounted, so I designed a mount that clamps onto the side-bar - see the pictures. The files are on Printables - "Creality K1 SE Side Spool Mount".

Amazing Printer! This Is My First 3D Printer, And It Is A Very Good Starter One. It Is Very Easy To Set Up, And Is Very Fun Unboxing! It Comes With Some Extra Things Like A USB Drive, An SD Card, A Filament Snips, An Extra Tip, Some Filament, And Extra Tools. It Does Very Well At Printing For The Price Of Only $200. It Has A Very Large Printing Size, And Prints Pretty Clean. It Is Also Pretty Fast At Printing. It Heats Up Fast, And Doesn't Take Long To Start Printing. It Has A Nice Design, And Is Very Easy To Operate. When Assembling, Make Sure To Plug The Right Wires In At The Right Spots. Its Very Easy, But It Shows Were In The Instructions. The Thing That Got Me For A Second Is The Voltage Selection On The Back. It Came Set At 235V From The Factory, But I Had To Just Slide It From 235V to 115V. Its A Red Switch Inset Into The Back. Just Use A Mini Screwdriver Or Allen Wrench. Sorry, I Would Have Uploaded Some Photos And A Video, But My Camera Was Currently In The Process Of Taking A Time-Lapse Video Of A 6 Hour Print, LOL.

Hasta el di ade hoy excelente funcionamiento

Makkelijk te installeren. Zorg wel dat je als je alles weer in elkaar zet de x-as waterpas vast zet, dit voorkomt problemen met het bed.

Ich hab die zweite z achse mit z spindel in meinen Ender 3 v2 Eingebaut , der Aufbau war nicht unbedingt sehr schwer und die teile fühlen sich sehr hochwertig an . Jedoch kommt die z spindel nicht geschmiert an .

Note la mejora de impresión con este doble eje , va genial y los materiales son bastante buenos , el montaje se me dio bien pero hay videos en internet para ver algunas posibles dudas
