So I have a Powerspec 3D Pro that I purchased from Microcenter several years ago for several hundred dollars. I used it off and on for awhile and then packed it up as I did not have time for it. I recently purchased a CNC router and wanted to print out some add-on parts so I dug it out. The second day of use and the heated bed quit and started having issues with print quality. I checked out the heated bed wiring and everything look good at the plate and on the motherboard. Calibrated everything and still had printing issues. I was going to but a new build plate which would have been about $60 and may not have fixed the issue is something was wrong on the MB. So I began looking other printers on Amazon and came across the Diggro Alpha 3.
I have been VERY impressed with this machine which I got for $189.99 after coupon. Assembly was easy enough for me but I had done some research and watched videos while waiting for delivery which I suggest people do. Besides the price the controller was the selling point for me as it is VERY nice and convenient. I was also looking at the Ender 3 Pro but the controller on this one sold me. After assembly I instantly popped in the micro SD card and printed the included fox model. Besides a few little flaws here and there, the print came out great. In fact I would say it printed better than my much more expensive printer ever did even after calibrations. I use Simplify3D which I had already purchased years ago and used the Alfawise U30 Pro profile that already existed in the program. I used this profile as this Alpha 3, the Alfawise U30, and the Longer LK4 are all made on the same assembly line and are the exact same machine.
If you are a beginner and want to try 3D printing out I would highly recommend this printer. I would also recommend this printer to those that are already printing as an additional machine. I do not see any major issues with quality or function and any flaws found would also be found in the more expensive brands of similar style.

Mine the bed doesn’t heat at all, I was told update firmware but it’s already at the newest version which will work on the machine but really isn’t the newest firmware. Connecting it to a PC was a absolute joke, it won’t boot if the USB is connected and won’t connect correctly 99% of the time when booted and then connected.
Overall I spent over an hour to build this junk only to spend 4 more hours to just end up taking it back apart to ship back since the heat bed isn’t working.
When it comes to assembly, this printer is not for beginners. The instructions are terrible and vague.
Second impressions of the machine dont help either. This machine has terrible temperature control. Swaying to either side of the target temp by +/- 5 degrees at any given time.
My first test print is going down now, and I will provide updates once it finishes. However, at this time, I would not reccomend this printer to anyone other than an adept printer.
The only reason I'm giving it two stars and not less is because the printer does function for the most part (even if it's not well).

Once you open the box do not follow the instructions on the booklet, it is useless, you will find a flash drive that has in detail instructions, that is what you need to use to assemble the printer. also i found a youtube video of assembly that helped me a lot.
after assembly you need to start leveling, this is the most important step and do not skip it. insert an A4 paper and adjust the screws to be barely touching (you will understand what i mean).
The printing process itself is so easy, the software is easy to use and i found it easy for me to adjust everything on the computer then transfer the file to the provided SD card and insert the SD card in the printer and Print.
The printer creates heat around it and it is also loud , a mid size model will take a day to print so make sure the printer is not near your bedroom.
Overall the printer for the price is great and for me as a beginner it tool a while to set it up but i was able to print accurately and quickly.
