BIQU CryoGrip Pro Glacier Panda Build Plate for Bambu-Lab P1S P1P X1C X1E A1 3D Printers, Double-Sided Fine Textured Spring Steel Sheet, Firm Adhesion, 257x257mm, 1 Piece

I have tried many different print beds for my modified ender3v2. Several PEI sheets of different textures, and the glass plate it came with. This has become my goto print bed. Many of the PEI sheets are flimsy on purpose so you can bend the plate to pop the part off, but this still allows that while having enough rigidity that it stays consistently flatter across the surface when doing a mesh level. I rarely have issues with prints not sticking when doing PLA/ PETG/ TPU. The added bonus of being able to run the build plate cooler is just the cherry on top honestly. I get that printing takes forever, but most of your prints are going to fail in the 1st 5ish layers, and stopping it to fix it and then start the bed heat again is just time consuming and frustrating. You would be surprised how much less time it takes to heat the print bed with it being 10c lower.The texture is what I would call just right. Its not butter smooth like glass, but it doesn't leave the orange peel texture like many PEI sheets do.Its super easy to clean with a little iso alcohol. If you are upgrading an Ender with a glass plate you'll probably end up buying enders PEI sheet to get the magnetic sticker thing you will need for this.

holy heck. where has this plate been my entire life? after multiple failures due to shifting and adhesion issues (I apparently can't clean a plate worth my life), I broke down and bought one of these. and then bought one for every printer in the farm. wow. it's amazing. total game changer. have had zero issues. just be sure not to mark it as a 'cool plate' in orca slicer or else it'll set the plate temp to 35 degrees and nothing will grip. rookie mistake I suppose.

I have bought the Biqu CryoGrip Pro Glacier for all of my printers for which Biqu sells a plate... The X1C, the FlashForge AD5M, and I am using the Bambulab sized ones for my Elegoo Centuari Carbon. I even donated two to my local makerspace for their Prusa MK4S fleet.The adhesion is phenomenal especially with materials that are not PLA/PETG. PA? Sticks. PHA? Sticks. PC? Sticks. ABS/ASA, you got it, it sticks!I will continue to shout from the roof tops how much I love using these build plates, and how easy they are to use. The texture leaves a good quality on the bottom of the print as well!

Pro: everything sticks great without using glue and the surface of the 3d print comes out high gloss, which is something i could never get when using glue.Cons: my bed mesh changed after switching to the cryogrip build plate. It’s showing high and low spots I never had before. I suspect the texture is messing with the leveling. Also since it doesn’t have the alignment notches I had to print a new bracket to act as an end stop.All things considered, I’m pleased with my purchase.

Ok, so I know you've seen these on the market for awhile just like I did. The question is, why did we wait so long to purchase them? I have no idea! But I'm regretting it so much. I purchased one just a few days ago, and then ordered a few more because these are game changing plates. No need to do anything special, these grip like boa on its prey. Your prints will not slip anymore with these plates. I'll be adding more to our arsenal and I'm hoping they will be making plates for other manufactures that are coming out in the fall as I will be getting a few different brands soon too.

We've been 3D printing for 3.5 years now and have 9 printers and a business. We got these cryogrip plates in the hope that we could cut down on brim usage when printing many of the same item on one plate (optimizing print settings too, of course). They worked fantastic for a few weeks, and then even with proper care following the instructions, they started having adhesion loss. But what was worse, on some of them, the coating started flaking off. We have one of the instruction pages hanging above the printers and between my husband and I, we made sure to follow it to a T for best performance. These just don't seem to have the longevity durability of a regular PEI plate. It's a shame, because we bough several. I have cleaned them well and am still using them on some projects I want a less textured finish without swapping to smooth plate, but I am finding I often still have to add a brim. I have optimized brim settings so it's not as big of a deal removing brims, but it's one less step I want to do when we've spent a couple hundred dollars buying multiples of these plates. We could have just stuck with the stock PEI.

Overall it is an excellent plate. Pla and petg stick to it with little issues at very low temps. Even the notorious Creality Solelyin filliment just sticks to it. The only issue i have with it is that it lacks the proper alignment notches for the Ender 3 V3 SE print bed making it slightly difficult to place on the print bed properly as well as making it overhang the print bed by a few CM. The improper fit is the only reason I am knocking a star off of my score. It will work just be aware of this.

I was able to have a significantly cooler bed temp and adhesion wasn’t an issue. Got one for my A1 mini to start and when I saw how well it worked, I got one for my Elegoo Centauri Carbon and FlashForge AD5X. All working perfectly.
