I saw this company at the TCT 3Sixty trade show at the NEC in Birmingham, UK last week - but did not get a chance to talk to them directly. I’ve since not really been able to find any reviews or write-ups of the machines. It looks like it came out of a Kickstarter last year? Does anyone have any real world usage to point me to?

So the product looks really nice. Going away from the home project/Industrial looks and going more towards the home fixture look with the nice wood enclosure. My only concern with it is that their site gives very little technical details on the printers. What is the print volume? What board does it use? Does it come assembled or is it a kit? It would also be nice to see more of the interior so you can see if it is rail or rod based. It also doesn't seem to be a fully enclosed printer, so does it have a tophat option?

In the end, it is a kinda cool design but it doesn't seem like something I would go for at this point. I think there are tons of other option at that price point or lower that service the same functional purpose.
