2025 CREALITY Official Space Pi Filament Dryer Plus, Dual-Spool Filament Dryer Box for 3D Printing with PTC Heater, 360° Fast Heating, 4'' LCD Touch Screen, One Key Set, Compatible with PLA PETG ABS

If you 3D print, you really should get a dryer. I'm not hard core, I only dry after finishing with a reel and then I vacuum seal it with desiccant. The dryer, really made a difference and saved at least 2 reel of PLA filament that had become brittle and unusable. It basically paid for itself right here.After reviewing many dryer designs I decided on the Creality Space PI. I assumed they knew how to apply and tune PID controllers for optimum heat control, and after using the product, yes, they did nail the tuning and temperature control, it is very good. Nice work! Reason this is important is the last thing you want is massive temperature overshoots that can damage your filament.The user interface (UI) is simple to use and innovative, although the touchscreen needs to be stiffer as touching it bends the LCD which can damage the display. I'd recommend changing the design to glass. The display is bright, modern, and large enough to read across the room. I also like that it remembers your last settings. Would be even better if it had a real time clock, and could tell you when your timer was finished. No big deal though.The device itself is pretty good, although it's made mostly of plastics which as we all know can melt and aren't the best insulators. I wasn't impressed by how much heat leakage this device has, making it very inefficient. The fan is quiet enough, and appears to have decent air flow. I was impressed by seeing actual ball bearings for using it with the printer, so the outside of the reel rolls on the bearings. That wasn't cheap, and nice to see that someone isn't cost downing a product to junk. The inside does have enough space to dry your desiccants too, but it's limited, especially if you plan to use the roll reel feature while printing. Would be nice if it had a pocket just for other things like desiccants.The device does have some limitations. The humidity meter stops at 15%, which makes it kind of useless for this application. I think that was the single biggest disappointment. While the drier is good at maintaining a temperature, the temperature indicated isn't totally accurate, but maybe enough for the purpose. On mine when set to 50C, the actual air temperature was 47C. Kind of a miss, and it should be within 1 degree C. It's also limited to how hot you can make it. I would like to see a dryer that can hit 80 or even 100C for the purposes of drying desiccant.I've used it for about 2 weeks continues, drying all my PLA rolls. I'll move on to PETG next week. So far, the drier seems reliable. No bugs, no strange noises, no failures.I like that the seller / store added some desiccant packs and Teflon tubing. Unfortunately, they weren't packaged very professionally, and stuffed into the Creality box, and also the tubes were crushed by the packing material. While it was thoughtful that they included extras, this is basically product tampering. A 3rd party should not be opening a sealed carton. Recommend you guys attach it to the side, or not include extras and just lower the price, or add other incentives.Overall, a very nice dryer, modern design, and it's easy to use. Not perfect, but worthy of 5 stars.

For FDM printing, drying your filament improves print quality and is a necessity for certain materials. This dryer fits 2 spools, is easy to use, and works well. It uses a fan to force air around the filament to facilitate drying, rather than just temp alone, so there will be fan noise. Easy read touch screen for adjustments.Setup is easy - it has preset temps for material type which can also be adjusted if desired, and then you just set the timer and let it run. Filament can also be fed directly to your printer from ports on the top of the dryer, which is also super convenient (although I have not used this function yet). There are many options for filament drying out there, and this one works perfect.

It's a great filament dryer with only 2 drawbacks. Both of its drawbacks can be fixed with 3D prints though. The hot air blows at the back and hits the back of the roll directly causing hot spots, can even melt lower temperature filaments. That and there are only 2 tiny vent holes to let the moisture out which are insufficient.There are many prints available to fix those issues though.

I got this price reduced because of an open box return. No issues and everything worked like new. I needed to dry more than one spool at a time. This dryer works great for my needs. The display is easy to navigate and easy to adjust. The fan is quiet and the humidity sensor is very helpful. Small footprint is a plus. This dryer does not rotate the spools mechanically but it moves air all around the spools. You can rotate the spools every so often if you care to.

Over the winter, the humidity in my house (southern CA) tends to be more humid than normal. I cycle my often used filament spools in this unit, and I have had exceptionally good results afterwards. The unit is quiet and I like that you can customize the temperature, time to dry, etc. I highly recommend this unit!

First used item I have bought from Amazon. Device itself is fine and functions. Screen is not great. But the power cable that Amazon Resale included is for a PC, not the two-prong needed for this device. I have the correct cable laying around, but this is rather annoying.

Works as suggested. Easy to use interface. Well worth the money.

This thing looks cool and seems to have worked with the first rolls I used it on. But I’m deducting two stars for two reasons.1. This is louder than I expected and the whine of the fans is irritating if you’re in the same room.2. With the door fully closed it traps humidity. Thankfully there’s a few 3D files out there for little door stoppers to keep it cracked open. This helps drop the humidity much lower. Apparently this was a common complaint so not sure why they didn’t fix it with the newer models.For the price I’m on the fence with it. I might return it and get wait for the poly maker one to come back in stock.
