SCRIB3D P1 review

The most rated pen on this shelf: a display, a ceramic nozzle, a stepless speed slider and 30 feet of PLA in three colors in the box.

Why it sells

SCRIB3D offers a display, adjustable temperature and a speed slider at the lowest price of the heated pens here. More than 24,000 ratings at 4.4 back it up.

Printed temperatures

Most pen listings mention PLA and ABS. This one prints the range for each, in Celsius and Fahrenheit, and that saves guesswork.

Clog resistance

A ceramic nozzle is the listing’s answer to clogs. Keep filament clean and dry, and unload it after use, whichever pen you buy.
