Qidi Plus 4 1 Year Later: Pro Prints, No More Fires?

In this Qidi Plus 4 review, I put this high-temp 3D printer through real-world testing to see if it truly delivers industrial-grade performance—without the fire hazard. 1 Year after reports of overheating and a potential fire risk, I test Qidi Tech’s fixes, print advanced materials like PPA-CF and PAHT-GF, and evaluate print quality, reliability, and safety. From functional automotive parts to flexible TPU prints, the Plus 4 handles it all. Is this the best budget 3D printer for engineering materials in 2025? Let’s find out. Featuring torture tests, teardown, and zero sponsors—just honest, independent FDM 3D printer content.
