3Doodler Start+ Essentials (2024) 3D Pen Set for Kids, Easy to Use, Learn from Home Art Activity Set, Educational STEM Toy for Boys & Girls Ages 6+

I got this for my kids as a random Christmas present no one asked for but I thought they might enjoy. No one liked it, my kids (ages 11, 8, and 7) all tried it and weren’t impressed or thought it was too hard to make stuff with. It got put away and forgotten about for the next 5 months. Then out of nowhere my 11 year old got it out to repair a broken hair claw clip she had and all three of my kids took turns using it to add onto other items and became obsessed with it. Now I’m having to buy replacement “ink” sticks because they had so much fun. While there is a learning curve, it’s worth it to find a way to create that works for them because my kids played with it for hours over several days. A great creative outlet for kids that doesn’t involve a screen and lets them use creative problem solving. My 7 year old made a mech suit for a peanut.

What a great product! My son loved his and then his brother had to get one. They love theirs and love building objects with it.My younger son’s pen broke within the first month. I reached out to customer service to return it. Not only did they send me a new pen for my son, they took the other one back and told me what was wrong. They followed up and it was due to user error! Not only did we get an awesome toy, but we learned a lesson how to care for it. Great product and great company!

Neat product but very overpriced. Must use this company's refills only which are not cheap. I bought as a gift and have since seen others that look better.

This 3D pen set is a total win! I got it for my 7-year-old, and we’ve been building all kinds of little robots, animals, and shapes together. It’s super easy to use—just load a stick, press the button, and start creating. I love that it’s safe for kids (the tip doesn’t get hot), and the included guide makes it fun to follow along or explore freestyle. It’s also a fantastic way to get kids into STEM through hands-on learning. We’ve already gone through most of the filament colors, so I’m definitely ordering refills soon!

This is a super fun toy, for everyone in the family. Sadly, ours died Died after only a couple times using it, so i reached out to their support team. The help From Steven was fast and very effective. He determined we needed to send the pen back, so he immediately got a replacement to me and I shipped the broken doodler back in the package the new one came in. He even followed up to let me know it was a bad rod (user error) that clogged the machine. So read your instructions, and keep an eye on your kiddos to make sure they don't put a rod in that is flawed! We are back to messing with this toy, and its really fun to figure out different ways to create with it.

When I got this, 3D printers were still a lot more expensive. I thought it would be a fun way to explore 3D crafting.It's interesting, but it takes patience. There are youtube videos and some basic tutorials included. It's a bit frustrating to use. The videos I've seen make it look like you can make some pretty ambitious products. Maybe you can, but it seems like it would take a LOT of work. We haven't used it much since we got it.It does work, and things do what they are supposed to, but it just hasn't been as satisfying as I would have hoped.

Bought this for my granddaughter and she loves it!! She had a 3D pen already and I thought I had broken it and was attempting to replace the one she had. As it turned out, this product, according to my granddaughter, was Much Better!! SheSaid she could Do More with this one and loved it more than her old one. We both are very pleased with this purchase 🩷

This is my daughter's second one the first one broke after a certain amount of time very happy with this one it doesn't get super hot so it doesn't burn her hands she has learned to create so many things with it she says it's comfortable in her hand so it was definitely worth the money it's getting many hours out of it.
