### 2/5 — Good printer but small for its price

*2026-08-15, version 1.20.1*

It can print quality things but isn’t that much as it is quite small.

### 4/5 — Review

*2026-08-14, version 1.20.1*

There were a lot of glitches and it’s annoying that u have to pay for stuff when some people of strict parents or don’t have that kind of money

### 4/5 — It’s good but one problem

*2026-07-12, version 1.20.0*

There so much stuff I can print and I love it I think it’s great but one problem is that sometimes my prints will start off normal but then go to werid like lines everywhere

### 4/5 — Ai generator is garbage

*2026-06-29, version 1.20.0*

I type in a long prompt and still fails it

### 3/5 — Good but

*2026-06-22, version 1.20.0*

The app overall is really cool however it will keep telling me it can’t reach the TOYBOX Parrott and to close the app and try again yet every time I do that it says the exact same thing

### 3/5 — Printing speed problems

*2026-06-08, version 1.20.0*

I like this and it’s a great 3d printer for a beginner. Ive made many things with it, but there are many problems that come along with it. I usually figure these out, but a new problem I can’t find out a way to fix has come up. Printing speed. Some prints will make the 3d printer print way too fast to the point when it goes to add on a certain area of it it lifts up the print. I have done many things like trying to clean the printing bed to make it more sticky for the print, but it still doesn’t work. This problem has happened with multiple prints and is very annoying, considering the fact that toybox straight up restricts the edit button that supposedly lets you change the print speed for all the prints I need to change the speed on.

### 5/5 — Great but some problems

*2026-05-27, version 1.20.0*

It’s a fun app and I have the printer but I feel like it has some flaws. First of all, the big problem. The size you put it at is smaller than the build plate meaning it won’t print as big. I wish they would fix this because a lot of people ask for an update to do that. Lastly I feel like some things should be free like the lunar new year dragon. If you purchase a 300$ printer, I feel like they should make most of it free. Only if they have a printer though. Other than that, it’s a great app.

### 5/5 — Fun and amazing

*2026-05-12, version 1.20.0*

It is AMAZING but one minor problem is that when I am scrolling down on search, when I tap on something I like but don’t heart it, it goes ALL the back to the top and I lose my spot.

### 5/5 — TOYBOX

*2026-05-07, version 1.20.0*

TOYBOX is so awesome. I love it so much. I am able to print stuff from other companies.

### 3/5 — It is good in all but not that good

*2026-05-07, version 1.20.0*

It works but it just makes a mess and dose not Evan stay in one place all it dose is make a big pile of filament

### 5/5 — The amazing Toybox

*2026-05-07, version 1.20.0*

The toy box changed my life because I was going to huge move from California to Tennessee which is I think 5000 miles away from California so it’s been a hard move moving away from all my friends and toybox has been there for me printing things that I need to be happy feel safe and be myself if I didn’t have this toy box I’d literally literally be on the floor, crying my whole life because I Add to move so this toy box I recommend add best printer app because they changed my life and I love it. Thank you toy box makers.                             From WesleighPrice

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-05-01, version 1.20.0*

Toybox is the best printing app I’ve ever seen! There are so many cool things to print and create!

### 4/5 — TOYBOX is cool

*2026-04-26, version 1.20.0*

TOYBOX as over half of the stuff work but the other half is easy to break and has poor design.

### 3/5 — App and Printer

*2026-04-18, version 1.19.9*

The app is good, but the printer itself is iffy. When you make something as big as you can on the app, it only prints 2/3 of the size out. Also it takes way too long to print out something. It took 2 hours to print something that is less than 3 inches

### 5/5 — Amazing Toys.

*2026-04-18, version 1.19.9*

I have 3D printer like 50 working items on this and I got this 2 months ago.

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE

*2026-08-22, version 1.20.1*

I’ve had this printer for 2 years and it’s been a waist of time and money because they over price there printer food and printers my friend got one literally the size of 5 of the TOYBOX baseplate even if u wanna get this as a starter printer don’t because most of the time all the prints that I make fail mark your days TOYBOX

### 1/5 — Never lets you submit a model

*2026-07-01, version 1.20.0*

It wont let me upload my own model so that i can print it i have tried multiple models from different sites also the actual printers they sell have tiny printer beds the only thing i could give it for granted is that its beginner friendly thats it

### 1/5 — It’s ok for kids

*2026-06-09, version 1.20.0*

I thought the printer was going to be big but it wasn’t. But because I had it I downloaded the app and it was easy to set up. So after a while I got bored of the things on the actual app and tried to send files to make my own. 3MFs and ZIP files don’t work only STLs worked and since it’s a kids printer, basically nothing worked from the files except a few things. 
Overall, it’s an ok product but I would honestly prefer something a little more advanced and with more variety and less useless things. 
It’s also a waste of money just for the printer. For $230 you get 1 spool with the printer, terrible quality, and a terrible app. But for $70 more you can get a Bambu Lab for about $300, but it’s bigger and way better to use. For example, if you were to use the Toybox app, you can’t find anything useful, but for the Bambu Lab you can find almost anything. A Bambu Lab is what I call a 3D Printer.

### 1/5 — shlapa

*2026-06-08, version 1.20.0*

xernay

### 1/5 — 😐Bro is kicking me out

*2026-05-27, version 1.20.0*

I spend 17 days working on a toy thats a picture and a phone stand along with some figures for a home made board game and it makes me wait for 25 minutes then deletes everything, its not my my phones age, even though the screen is so small that i make spelling mistakes, i had to restart my account because toy box got my password in a data leak, also, my 3-D printer is the same brand as this app, so shouldnt i get something out of that?!! Im gonna rate you 1 untill you fix the rage bait.😡😤🤬👿😾😭

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-04-14, version 1.19.9*

On create import file every time it just says please try again but doing that 20 times doesn’t work terrible quality and when the printer starts and stops printing it make an exteremly  loud sound

### 1/5 — HORIBLE quality

*2026-03-02, version 1.19.8*

Almoast every printer has has a time where it just came out as string. My printer literly jammed and the food wont come out. And i think my printer is broken. (P.S, does the toybox alpha 3 come with a free unclog thing?) FIX YOUR QUALITY. 0.9 stars.

### 1/5 — New printer. Doesn’t connect.

*2026-02-28, version 1.19.8*

Super irritating. Tried on multiple devices.

### 1/5 — Beware - Charges for Premium after the first month

*2026-01-29*

They sneakily automatically enroll you into a premium membership, which is “Free” for the first month, but if you don’t cancel it, which is almost impossible to do, they will charge you. I couldn’t find any way to cancel it in the app., And on the website, it was completely absent. Make sure you email them immediately after You activate your toy box. They refused to refund even though I emailed them Within seconds of the charge. Shady and sneaky, but it probably makes them millions.

### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE

*2026-01-21, version 1.19.5*

THIS HAPPENED TO ME. IT SUDDENLY ONE DAY REFUSED TO WORK AND WOULD SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN. PLEASE BOYCOTT THIS COMPANY, I’M BEGGING YOU, IT’S NOT WORTH IT.

*2026-06-19, version 1.20.0*

it’s so easy to use it’s really fun to pick out your own toy and create one too I love this app. It’s easy to use. other 3-D printing brands are so complicated. I would 100% recommend this to you.

### 5/5 — Cool

*2026-06-15, version 1.20.0*

Good for starters works perfect. I love it.

### 5/5 — First time using a 3-D printer, and it was the best experience ever

When I got this, I really like it because I really wanted a 3-D printer

### 5/5 — AMAZING⭐️

*2026-06-03, version 1.20.0*

It is so good for a starter to start 3d printing because you get to make toys and print others recommended a lot

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2026-06-01, version 1.20.0*

This is the best starter for when you want to 3D Print. Its very cheap, i have an alpha one i got a couple of years ago and its prices are PERFECT! A Bambu Lab costs usually $500, but the ToyBox Alpha One costs $300, however, on the app, theres not much, unless you check makerworld. Makerworld has STL files that can be imported on to here when you make your first account, there is also a 20% off coupon to send to people, like your friends!
