The MINI is a "disposable" printer

My MINI worked great for about 4 months, and since then, I have experienced new failures every few prints. First I had to remove the filament sensor because it was causing extrusion problems. Then the pulley belt for the y-axis came loose. Now bed leveling fails and I can't print.

The MINI is the 6th printer I have owned. I print A LOT. Most printers lasted a little more than a year before they get to a point where I spend more effort maintaining the printer than actually doing my work. The MINI got to that point in 4 months. I will probably go back to the MK3S, because I think this design is more stable than the MINI. 

Still a decent value for the money, but I will no longer recommend the MINI to my friends. Not until it goes through a few more revisions.

Not enough information to help.  I would work problem by problem and make small tweaks until each issue is solved.

Did you work with Prusa tech-support on any of these issues?

Whatever you find to do with your hands, do with all your might!

@burtronix

I suspect the answer is no.
