3Dsimo basic is a great gift for children older than 8 year. The device is completely harmless, and cannot cause burns when touched. That makes it an ideal present under the Christmas tree.
The package contains :
1x 3Dsimo basic (The basic box already contains 98 pieces of 30cm long filament)
1x 3Dsimo Book (40 interesting projects and templates inside)
1x Silicone pads (Great even for beginners, as it comes with 18 projects)
1x Drawing pad (A fitting accessory with the Book)
98 pieces of 30cm long filament (The package comes with 6 different colors)
Pros:
– Super safe for kids (8+) with low temperature plastic so you can’t burn yourself (tip not hot)
– Doesn’t have issues with jamming like the 3doodler Create and 3doodler 2.0
– Rechargeable pen (lasts 1 hr) that is portable so it doesn’t need to be plugged in!
– Plastic takes time to harden which means its easier to mold into shapes
– Simple and easy to use + Loads plastic quickly
Cons:
– Difficult to draw up in the air or make 3 dimensional objects like you can with other 3d pens
– Plastic takes 20-35 seconds to harden depending on the temperature in the room instead of 3 seconds with pla plastic.
– Plastic filament strands are shorter and run out quickly so you’ll need to buy more
Overall this pen is great for young kids (8+) and it’s awesome because you can’t burn yourself but if you’re looking to draw up in the air or create 3d objects I would recommend other 3d pens with more options.
