Prima Creator vs Microswiss - which all metal hotend is better? - eviltoast

Looking to maybe upgrade my kid’s creality cr6-se, so we can move into the more exotic materials.

It appears that I have two options for an all metal hotend, but I can’t find any comparisons. Not besides a reddit post from 2020 stating that the Prima Creator is a knock off.

So have anybody tried one or both and care to speak about the experience?

    Ender style hotends aren’t rocket science. I wouldn’t pay more than $10 for an all metal one.

    I’d just get a bi-metallic heatbreak of AliExpress for the stock hotend and call it a day unless you’re also looking to improve the flowrate.

      Where would you get an all metal hotend for the cr6 for 10usd? The microswiss sells for more than 60usd from their own store.

        AliExpress is my go-to for 3d printer parts. Especially now that 7 day shipping is quite common
