In a market filled with low-cost, user-friendly 3D printers, Solidoodle was one of the first — it was announced in early 2012 as a simple $500 box for people who didnt need the relatively high-end features of something like a MakerBot Replicator. The centerpiece is the Solidoodle Press, the Easy-Bake Oven of the lineup. A new design is supposed to prevent that filament from tangling, a heated bed will reduce warping, and Solidoodle is introducing an auto-calibration system called SoliTouch that eliminates the need to adjust the printing bed — although despite the specialized name, thats not an unusual feature to find in a 3D printer, unless it ends up working unusually well. The Press is designed for mainstream appeal, and its definitely less daunting-looking than Solidoodles previous printers, which were essentially big black boxes or metal frames.
