You will see a lot of reviews stating that the adhesion to the bed is bad, prints not sticking etc. It all comes down to the adhesion of the bed.Now here is my story. This is the best type of glass that you can get for your printers, it can handle the heat and prints come off without any issues. When printing I used to have an issue with the right corner of my prints coming off the bed, this happened ever since I had my printer and I used a mirror for the bed. Every so often I would get a totally flat print, but depending on size J would get a lifted corner in one end.I decided to go with this borosilicate glass plate because it had the right dimension and thickness for my build plate. Again I was experiencing a lifted edge, I even changed my temperate hotter >70 to test, still to no avail. After looking at many reviews I decided to use a skirt, well that solved my issue instantly. I use 6 outlines for the skirt and that is enough, no issues removing the skirts either. I print everything using skirts now.As far as adhesion when printing, you have to use the skirt, plus you have to make sure your first player is close to the bed so your filament comes out of the nozzle onto the bed and not in midair like a waterfall. After you get your perfect print you will begin to wonder why you never used this type of glass for printing. Once the glass cools down a little the prints pop right off without any effort.If you use a mirror you will have to scrape the print off the glass (i know), but borosilicate glass is the best to use as you never have to scrape it ever. Just clean with a little alcohol and a lint free rag and you are good to go.I also have the wham-bam complete system for my 3 printers, but looking at hindsight I never should have bought them because I am not going to replace the glass bed as I like the prints better.I also have my glass bed flipped over so I can get a smooth shiny first layer, if I want the matted look I will just flip it back over to the other side.If you are still having issues with first layer sticking, I saw this really cool video on youtube by CHEP one time and he was referring to a Da Vinci printer, good luck...Hope this helps as this is my experience.

Excellent quality. It makes the base perfectly flat and the filament sticks but it is very easy to remove. Way better than the flimsy magnetic ones (yes, I tried the magnetic ones first...)

This bed resurrected my love for printing. I use a feeler guage now for leveling and it stays level for a while.I'm using it on an Ender 5 pro.Remember to clean with dish soap occasionally and dry with a lint-free cloth. Paper towels leave enough behind to cause adhesion issues.

Works great! Just make sure you clamp it down with some of those black paper clips so it doesn’t move, also putting glue on the bed will help if prints are getting stuck.

One thing I've notice since installing this on my printer is that the quality of my prints has greatly improved for some reason. This bed also has much greater adhesion over the standard magnetic print bed, but I do wish it came with clips to mount it since it isn't magnetic.

I had this bed sitting in storage for a while because i was using the magnetic beds. after ruing my last one on a bad print (don't ask), i decided to break out this glass bed. First thing i noticed was that i would need to adjust the Z-axis stop switch which was easy enough. the bed leveled easily and i had pretty decent adhesion right from the start. after a few successful prints, i started one that would take around 9 hours to finish and went to bed expecting to wake up to a finished project... i couldn't have been more wrong.the adhesion failed and progressively pulled the pieces off of the bed and eventually clogged the extruder forcing melted filament up into the silicone sock completely encasing the heating block and nozzle in a thick cocoon of melted and hardened filament. after spending some time dismantling, cleaning and reassembling the extruder with a replacement nozzle (the old one was shot), i cleaned off the bed with some 70% isopropyl alcohol solution. i then noticed that not only did this perfectly clean the bed and dry quickly, but left the bed feeling slightly tacky (like hard rubber). this slight tackyness provided added adhesion while still allowing the prints to lift off easily when completed. i started wiping the bed with the alcohol between each print ever since, and i haven't had a print fail due to lost adhesion since.I will never go back to magnetic beds again.

I've had nothing but problems with bed leveling on my Ender 3 Pro with the magnetic bed. I believe my heated bed surface (not the magnetic top but the solid bed itself) is warped, so no amount of leveling would ever result in a good print.I finally got this glass bed to try out and man what a difference it made. All I had to do to install it was clip the bed on and raise the Z-switch up to adjust for the newly increased thickness. The glass bed, instead of passing along the "warped-ness" of the solid piece underneath, created a new, flat surface for me to level. I ran a calibration print with the new bed installed and BAM, my print quality was better than it ever has been in over a year of 3d printing on the Ender. I couldn't believe how crisp they were.Adhesion is definitely different with this bed than I am used to. Once the bed cools, the print is literally no longer attached to the bed anymore it just comes right off. This is both good and bad, good for big prints, but small prints or small portions of prints will have trouble sticking. You can use glue sticks or hairspray to combat this, and clean with alcohol occasionally but I haven't gotten to that point yet. You could also use a raft if really necessary.Overall this bed was a total game changer, and fixed a warped heated surface issue I had. My prints have never been higher quality than they are now.

As some of the comments mention you must clean the bed and this is true. I have had no adhesion problems at all. One the bed has cooled the print pops right off. Thanks creality for another amazing product.

Have used this glass bed plate and it was far better to level print head and the print sticks down well when hot enoughðŸ‘
