Best 3D Printing Pens of 2026

"I was impressed by how lightweight and comfortable this pen felt in my hand, especially since I have smaller hands. Being able to adjust the temperature really helped me get the best results with different PLAs, and the pen has been easy to use for extended crafting sessions. I recommend experimenting with quality PLA filaments and using wax paper for tracing—those tips made my D&D projects turn out even better!"

"I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 10-year-old granddaughter, and she absolutely loves it! She's always creating new projects, and the pen is simple for her to handle. The plastic cools quickly, and although the tip gets warm, it's not dangerously hot. It's a real winner for any child who enjoys drawing or crafts."

"My 11-year-old son was interested in 3D printing, but we weren't ready for a full printer. This pen turned out to be a fantastic starter option—it fits well in his hand despite being a bit bulky, and the functionality has been excellent. It's definitely sparked his interest in creative technology."

"I took a chance on the MYNT3D Super 3-D pen after having issues with another brand, and it was extremely easy to learn and use. I loved making crafts and even used it for model trains. When my pen stopped working, the customer service was outstanding—they quickly sent me a complete replacement set. I’m now a loyal return customer and highly recommend this pen to anyone interested in creative projects."

"I bought this 3D pen for my nephew and he was instantly hooked. The pen is fun, creative, and user-friendly, and it works smoothly with both ABS and PLA filament. Just a heads up: definitely buy extra filament, as it goes fast once kids get going. Overall, it’s an awesome gift and I’d buy it again without hesitation."

"My kids absolutely love making little objects with this pen. It’s like having a mini 3D printer and glue gun in one. While the pen doesn’t come with much filament, I was able to find a good deal on extra supplies that should last a long time. It’s a great, creative tool for kids of all ages."

"I've gone through a few 3D pens, and this one stands out because I can actually take it apart and fix it if something goes wrong. The adjustable temperature settings make it easy to work with different types of filament, and I really like the option for both manual and continuous feed. Customer service is responsive, and so far, after about 15 hours of use, it's working perfectly. Lighter than others but packed with handy features."

"As someone who uses lots of tools for repairs and creative projects, this pen is simple to use and the LCD screen is a great touch. I appreciate the neat storage box, and while the auto-shutdown feature gets a bit annoying when I'm working on longer tasks, it's a minor issue. The pen fits well into my workflow for welding and joining plastics. Just wish the USB cord was more flexible."

"This 3D pen really opened up new creative possibilities for me. Being able to control temperature for both ABS and PLA is fantastic, and creating true 3D objects is much easier than with a traditional printer. Switching filament colors is hassle-free, and the pen is comfortable to hold. There is a bit of a learning curve, but with some practice, it's easy to make detailed and interesting projects."

"As someone working on a fashion project, I found this 3D pen to be incredibly user-friendly once I got the hang of it. Speed control is great and it heats up fast. I used ABS, and the pen handled it well, producing pieces that are super light and easy to work with. Even when I needed to change my design, I could cut out and redraw with no trouble. I’m 100% satisfied and already planning bigger projects with it."

"Having worked with 3D technology for years, I was honestly surprised by how much I enjoyed using this pen. The ergonomic design makes it comfortable, and the controls are very intuitive. The LCD displays filament type clearly, and switching between ABS and PLA is effortless. I especially appreciate the continuous feed and easy filament reversal—it’s much less frustrating than other pens I’ve tried. The customer support was also quick and helpful when I had questions. This pen is a fantastic value for the price."

"I got this 3D pen for my child, and while it’s definitely a cool and creative tool, we did encounter a filament jam that was tricky to fix. The instructions didn’t always match the pen’s behavior, and the sound it makes can be a bit bothersome. Still, my kid loves using it and has made lots of fun projects. It’s a unique gift idea, but be ready to pick up extra filament!"

"I bought this 3D pen for my son and later for my 78-year-old father. Both of them found it engaging and it really improved their dexterity. The time they spend together using it is truly special."

"My granddaughter has been obsessed with this pen ever since she got it for Christmas. She loves making colorful bracelets for her friends and now she asks for more plastic rolls. All her friends want one too!"

"At first, I found the instructions a bit confusing, but once I figured it out, it became a fantastic arts and crafts tool to enjoy with my kids. It's really fun to see how many creative things we can make together."

"I purchased this pen as a holiday present for my daughter and was truly impressed by the outstanding professionalism and responsiveness of customer service, especially when my 12-year-old reached out to them herself. Even when we faced issues—first with the pen, then with the power supply—the company quickly sent replacements and kept us updated on their findings. Their follow-up and willingness to help went above and beyond, making this one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had."

"This pen ended up being my 11-year-old's favorite gift, and he dove right in, creating some really cool projects with ease. While there was a learning curve and we did have some technical hiccups—the pen stopped working after a month—tech support was exceptional and replaced the unit quickly. Even though the replacement also had issues, I recognize that when the pen works, it's a fantastic and fun tool, though I do wish it was a bit more durable."

"I've tried a lot of 3D pens over the years, and I have to say, 3Doodler pens have always been the most reliable for my large art projects. Now that they've made a pen compatible with 1.75mm filaments, I finally have both reliability and artistic flexibility. Plus, it works with my old accessories. As an artist, I'm genuinely thrilled with this product!"

"After trying some inexpensive 3D pens that broke quickly, I decided to invest in this one. It's sturdy and reliable, delivering great performance—definitely worth paying a bit more for quality."

"What I appreciate most about this 3D pen is the variety of nozzles included, making it much more versatile for different projects."

"I love how flexible this pen is with different filaments, and it was incredibly easy to set up. The print quality truly impressed me and the extra tips are a huge bonus. I got it open-box, so it was a fantastic value, too."

"I love how everything fits perfectly in this case. It's the ideal storage solution for my daughter's 3D Doodler, and it's solidly built, so I know her pen and accessories are well protected."

"The hard shell and snug interior give me peace of mind about my 3D pen's safety. The case has a handy mesh compartment for filaments and a spot for the charging cable, making it easy to keep everything together and organized."

"I was a bit disappointed that the 3D pen wasn't included, since that's what I really needed. The case itself is fine, but make sure you know it's just the case, not the pen!"

"I bought this case to keep my grandson's 3Doodler Start kit together, and I'm impressed with the durable zipper and sturdy build. It features pouches on both sides that neatly hold the pen, charger, and filaments. My only minor gripe is that it's a bit tight for the Doodler mat and booklet."

"What I love about this case is its flexibility—it’s not molded for one specific product, so I can store anything in it. The solid protection and two separate compartments make it ideal for carrying multiple items, and the quality handle and zippers are a real plus. If you want a customizable storage case, this is a great pick."

"For my son's 3D pen accessories, this case is well-made and fits all the filaments and extras perfectly. It really helps keep everything organized."

"I bought this as a Christmas present for my son, but honestly, my husband ended up using it even more. We've managed to fix minor household items, and my son has enjoyed making sculptures and repairing toys. Overall, it's been a fantastic gift for our family."

"My experience was disappointing—the device jammed and the heating element stopped working. I couldn't find the right replacement part anywhere, which made the whole thing pretty frustrating."

"After using it for about 20 minutes, I turned it off and then couldn’t get it to power back on. That was unexpected and a bit of a letdown."
