Solid Upgrade
Much better than the stock component that came with my printer. Aluminum heats up faster and cools down quicker when needed. Very satisfied.

Great Heat Retention
I print mostly ABS and this block holds temperature very well. No more fluctuations during long prints. Highly recommend for anyone upgrading their hot end.

Good Value
Solid block for the price. The heater cartridge hole was slightly tight, but nothing a reamers couldn't fix. Works as expected otherwise.

Fast Shipping and Quality Item
Arrived quickly and was well packaged. The machining quality is excellent with no burrs on the threads. Will buy again for my second printer.
