While there has been mixed reviews about their machines themselves, typically if you are looking for a feature packed 3D printer, a MakerBot machine is the way to go. That’s if you can afford it.
Today we got some awesome news, if you are in the market for a factory reconditioned MakerBot Replicator 5th Generation Desktop 3D Printer, their high quality PLA filament, or a Matter & Form Desktop 3D Scanner. The Amazon owned online deal site, Woot.com, has just launched a sale for all three of these products. Below are the details of these limited time offers:

MakerBot PLA Filament Large Spool, 2lb

It appears as if Wooters are taking advantage of these offers already, as there has been a total of 16 MakerBot Replicator 3D printers and 5 Matter & Form scanners sold thus far. While all three deals are quite amazing, the MakerBot Replicator offer stands out to us as it’s nearly 50% off the retail price of the machine when new. If you
I remember when Woot first launched several years back. Their deals always seemed better back then, and when Amazon purchased the company in 2010, it seemed as if the discounts faded a bit. With that said, this is the kind of deal that I remember from the Woot.com of old, one which is perfect if you have been considering a 3D printer or scanner purchase recently. According to Woot, all three products will ship within 3-5 business days and the scanner and printer each have optional protection plans available thanks to Square Trade.
