Mid-cycle — watch for announcements before buying
Best for: Professional makers, small studios, and engineers who need dual-material printing — particularly for PVA soluble supports, dual-color engineering parts, or high-throughput production.

The H2S adds better high-speed cooling and more consistent layer adhesion at 600 mm/s, addressing key H2D pain points.
Dual-nozzle printing eliminates the purge tower required by filament-switching systems — faster prints, less wasted filament.
Print PLA + PVA or ABS + HIPS combinations for complex geometries that would be impossible with a single material.
Removes 99% of particulates and VOCs generated during printing. One of the strongest air filtration systems in the consumer printer category.
Nozzles snap in and out without tools or heating. Swapping between 0.25, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8mm nozzles takes seconds — ideal for classrooms and multi-user environments.
Full enclosure in a compact body that fits comfortably on a desk — unusually rare at this price point.
