You requested it and now we have a review of a IDEX 3D printer. IDEX stands for independent dual extruder. The machine has two hot ends, which can print two colours, two materials or even two models at a time. In this video, I thoroughly review the SV04 to see how it performs.

If the slicing profile was up to scratch on this printer, I would only have the minor complaints to discuss. Since a slicer profile is free to change and can fix the primary problem, I give this printer a thumbs up overall.

This machine was provided free of charge by Sovol for the purpose of review. All opinions expressed are my own.
