Best 3D Printer Platforms of 2026

"I was initially unsure about this product, but after using it for a month, my prints are still sticking perfectly—I'm really impressed!"

"With my Kobra 3 V2 Combo and PLA, I haven't experienced a single failed print. This surface has worked great so far!"

"I love that it uses a lot less power since I don't have to heat the bed as much. Performance has been amazing!"

"I'm really happy with my purchase—the product fits my bed perfectly and works just as expected. Shipping was quick too, which was a pleasant surprise!"

"I upgraded my Ender 3 V3 SE with this PEI+PEY Magnetic Build Plate, and I'm extremely impressed. Adhesion is excellent, the magnetic system makes removal and reattachment effortless, and the flexible plate makes print removal a breeze. It's a fantastic upgrade, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their print quality and workflow."

"This build plate is superior to the original A1 Mini plate—it's thicker, sturdier, and both sides work incredibly well. Adhesion has been flawless for me, and my overall print quality has noticeably improved since switching."

"I bought this as a second plate for my Bambu X1C to speed up turnaround. It works well, though it doesn’t have the Bambu coding, so I need to confirm the plate manually at startup. A nice bonus is the dual-sided option—smooth on one side, textured on the other. Using glue stick on the smooth side helps with release, just as recommended."

"I upgraded my Bambu Lab printer with this build plate, and I'm absolutely impressed by the premium quality and outstanding adhesion. Prints, even with trickier materials like ABS and PETG, stick firmly during printing and pop off effortlessly once cooled—no more scraping or damaged parts! The surface has proven durable and reliable, making this one of the best upgrades to my 3D printing setup."

"After struggling with my stock glass plate, I tried this one based on its reputation. Even without using the magnet at first, the adhesion was fantastic and parts lifted off easily once cooled. Eventually, I attached the magnet, and it worked even better—flat, secure, and hassle-free. My entire perspective changed, and now I highly recommend it, especially if you can get the sticky magnet included."

"I've used every build plate for my Bambu X1C, but the CryoGrip Pro Glacier stands out as the perfect balance between grip and surface finish. It offers just enough texture to hide first-layer lines without looking rough, and after hundreds of prints, it still looks brand new—no glue, no washing needed. This is my go-to build plate, and I've recommended it to many friends."

"I immediately noticed superior build quality and flawless adhesion on my first print, right out of the box. Double passes were perfectly aligned and my support structures held up great. For me, a new plate solved multiple printing issues—definitely worth the investment."

"After switching to this plate, adhesion improved dramatically compared to the original bed. No more print failures so far, and it's been running well on my Bambu for months."

"Swapping to this PEI plate was simple—just one auto-level and it was ready. Adhesion was incredible, like using glue. The only minor downside is that some tiny surface specks transferred onto my prints, but with lighter colors, it’s barely noticeable."

"I’m really impressed by the strong adhesion this build plate offers for PLA, PETG, and ABS, plus how easy it is to install. The surface feels tough and resists scratches, and my prints come out looking great and release easily after cooling. It’s been holding up like new even after a lot of use. The only thing is, for certain filaments I sometimes need a glue stick. Overall, it’s a reliable upgrade that makes printing easier."

"The pattern it leaves on my prints looks fantastic, and the release is always smooth once the job is done. For the price, it’s a solid value and I’m happy with how consistently it performs."

"At first, I thought the plate was defective because the texture was damaged during my first print—but after contacting the seller and doing more research, I realized I needed to fully calibrate my printer before use. The seller even sent me a replacement, which worked flawlessly after calibration. Their customer service was excellent and now I’m very satisfied. Just remember, don’t use sharp tools on the plate and calibrate before starting."

"I've been using this build plate for a few small PETG projects, and the image detail transfers beautifully to my prints. While it's not as thick as my Bambu or Anycubic plates, the adhesion and overall performance are impressive. For the price, it's a great deal—hoping it holds up well over time."

"I'm honestly impressed by the quality and customization options this aftermarket plate offers. My prints look extremely professional, and I haven't run into any adhesion problems at all. The fit is perfect on my printer, and I'll definitely be picking up more of these in the future!"

"The plate arrived with a bit of damage on the edges, but since I never print right at the edge, it's not an issue for me. The textured patterns look amazing, and overall it's an awesome build plate—just knocked off a star for the minor damage."

"I've used this plate about 100 times with my Bambu P1S and there's no sign of wear at all. The surface stays pristine and performance is exactly as expected. I don't use a scraper, so I can't comment on toughness there, but for my use it's been completely flawless."

"I tried this plate for my Bambu X1C and found that both ASA and PLA adhere perfectly, with or without glue stick. I love the smooth finish it gives my prints, and the fit on the heatbed is perfect. The included barcode sticker works, but I think it may wear off after a few washes, so I recommend disabling build plate checking for long-term use. Cleaning is easy with just some dish soap and warm water."

"Initially, I had major trouble getting PETG to stick, even after cleaning and changing all the recommended settings. After working with Ideaformer's helpful customer service, I adjusted my Z offset and bed temperature and finally got perfect adhesion. Their support made all the difference, and now I'm fully satisfied with the plate."

"After a frustrating experience with my first glass bed, the replacement totally changed my printing game. Filament now sticks perfectly and releases easily once cooled—a night and day difference. I can print multiple times in the same spot without trouble, just giving it a quick wipe between prints. I went from 2 stars to 5 stars for this upgrade!"

"As an avid 3D printing fan, I couldn't be happier with this glass bed upgrade for my Ender 3. The tempered glass gives excellent adhesion and makes print removal effortless. My prints are smoother, and the bed has held up beautifully through lots of use. Installation was a breeze, and it has truly refreshed my 3D printing experience."

"Switching to a glass bed really improved my print quality, especially the bottom layers. The glass heats evenly and looks so much better than the original magnetic sheet. I did have some trouble with small prints not sticking, but using a light spray of hair spray solved that easily. If your metal bed is warped like mine was, this is a great fix."

"I've worked with other patterned build plates before, but this one is absolutely magical! The rainbow dots and stars that appear on the bottom of my prints are stunning—especially under intense light. At first, the effect was subtle, but after adjusting my build plate for a smoother finish, my next print came out looking exactly like the plate’s pattern. Even my coworkers were amazed when they saw it. Just a heads up, if the plate gets oily from your hands, a wipe with isopropyl alcohol brings back the vibrant effect. Now I’m excited to find more projects where I can show off this dazzling surface!"

"For me, the star pattern is attractive and the builds stuck well to the PEY side, unlike many novelty plates I’ve tried. It’s well made and offers a fun new look for prints. I do wish it came with better instructions and barcode placement guidance for the X1C, but overall, it’s a solid plate and an enjoyable addition to my 3D printing setup."

"I love the cool holographic designs this plate puts on my prints. The colors and shapes are great, making every project more visually interesting. Just note that with frequent use, the effect can fade over time, but it’s still worth it for the fun and creativity it adds."
