Testimonials

“AFTER USING MY FIRST MOSQUITO THESE PAST FEW MONTHS I CAN'T IMAGINE USING ANY OTHER HOTEND”

JOHN K.

“I ENJOY THE EASE OF THE NOZZLE SWAP. EVERY TIME I GO TO SWAP A NOZZLE NOW I SAY TO MYSELF, ‘WISH THIS WAS A MOSQUITO.’”

CHRIS R, @CHRISRILEY3D

“I TROUBLESHOOT PEOPLE’S EXTRUSION ISSUES ALL DAY, SO I’M VERY HAPPY TO COME HOME TO A HOTEND THAT JUST WORKS. NO MATTER WHAT I THROW AT IT, EVEN THE EXPERIMENTAL STUFF WE PLAY WITH AS A FILAMENT MANUFACTURER… IT HANDLES BEAUTIFULLY. I’M VERY HAPPY WITH THE MOSQUITO AND CAN’T RECOMMEND IT ENOUGH!”

KEITH K, @TINKERZ FROM PROTOPASTA

“I RECOMMEND YOUR PRODUCT TO ANYONE WHO IS SERIOUS ABOUT 3D PRINTING, WHETHER THE HOBBYIST OR THE PROFESSIONAL. I PUT THE MOSQUITO TO THE TEST AND WAS IMMEDIATELY PRINTING REMARKABLE QUALITY PARTS: THE NYLON-X PART PRINTED USING YOUR HOTEND TURNED OUT BETTER QUALITY THAN THE SAME PART PRINTED WITH SLA. THANK YOU FOR SUCH A FANTASTIC PRODUCT!”

RUPERT M.

“I LOVE HOW THE MOSQUITO HOTEND IS ENGINEERED. I CAN HAVE MY RETRACTION SETTINGS DIALED IN REALLY PRECISE.”

MARTEINN S, @3DPICELAND

“LOVING THIS HOTEND AND WILL BE BUYING MORE AS I SLOWLY UPGRADE MY PRINTERS. I AM A FAN OF QUALITY PRODUCTS AND THIS PRODUCT I AM A HUGE FAN OF. RECOMMENDING A LOT OF RAILCORE OWNERS TO USE THE MOSQUITO AS I AM TRULY IMPRESSED WITH IT.”
