Creality 2026 New Upgrade Filament Dryer Box Pro, Space Pi SE with High PTC Efficiency & Precision Sensor for 1KG Spools 45~65℃, 3D Printer Filament Dehydrator for PLA PETG ABS ASA TPU

As anyone who prints with flexible materials knows, moisture is your absolute worst enemy. I recently picked up the Creality 2026 New Upgrade Filament Dryer Box Pro (Space Pi SE), and it has completely transformed my workflow. If you are struggling with stringing, popping, or failed prints, this unit is a must-have upgrade. Build Quality and Design Out of the box, the Space Pi SE feels incredibly well-built and sturdy. It doesn't have that flimsy plastic feel that some budget dehydrators suffer from. The transparent casing makes it easy to keep an eye on your spool, and the 3.7-inch LCD touchscreen is responsive, bright, and intuitively laid out. It looks great sitting on the workbench and feeds filament smoothly directly into my Bambu printers without any snagging or excess tension. High PTC Efficiency in Action The heating technology in this box is exactly what sets it apart from standard PI heating pad models. 360° Hot-Air Circulation: The built-in 80W PTC heater and internal fan circulate hot air completely around the chamber. It doesn't just bake the bottom of the spool; it dries the entire roll evenly. Rapid Heating: The efficiency here is stellar. It easily ramps up to 65°C in about 15 minutes, saving a massive amount of prep time when you just want to get a project started. Energy Saving: The PTC heater regulates itself well, maintaining a stable internal environment without pulling unnecessary power during long 24-hour drying cycles. The Ultimate TPU Test I bought this specifically to salvage my hygroscopic filaments, and it is an absolutely AMAZING dryer for my TPU. Flexible filaments soak up moisture like a sponge, but running a spool through this box dried it through and quick. The prints came out flawlessly—zero stringing, perfect layer adhesion, and a smooth surface finish that I haven't been able to achieve in months. Ease of Use and Practicality Creality nailed the user experience with a few quality-of-life features that make daily operation effortless: One-Key Settings: It comes pre-programmed with one-touch temperature settings for up to 12 different filament types (PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, etc.), though you can manually tweak it anywhere from 45℃ to 70℃. 48-Hour Timer: The adjustable timer lets you set it and forget it, ensuring your tougher engineering filaments get the deep drying they need. Power-Off Memory: If you experience a power blip, the machine remembers your exact material and temperature settings when it turns back on, meaning your drying cycle isn't ruined while you're away. Final Verdict The Creality Space Pi SE Pro is a phenomenal piece of equipment that delivers exactly what it promises. The PTC heating efficiency is top-tier, the interface is dead simple to navigate, and its real-world performance—especially with stubborn TPU—is unmatched at this price point. Highly recommended for any serious maker looking to drastically improve their print quality.

Pros: 1. No fuss, no issues, it simply does what it says on the tin. Very nice! 2. Heats up very quickly to desired temperature in about 10 minutes. 3. Timer is convenient to prepare filament overnight, though it'd be nice to have settings longer than 24 h. Cons: 1. It only holds one spool, but this might actually be a pro since it's more convenient for managing different types of filament that has different optimal drying temperatures. As of writing the review two of this model is still cheaper than the dual-spool model. 2. The viewing angle of the display is poor. If you put this on a shelf or on the floor, you might have a hard time reading the screen. 3. The fan is a bit noisy. Overall: Cheap and effective, a must have for moisture-sensitive filaments like TPU!

Very basic, but really all I need. I was going to build a dry box that I could also feed filament into my printer. I actually ordered parts to do so. When I seen this unit for less than $40, I decided to order it and see how bad it could be. I thought I could always return it, if it did not fit my need. Well, I am happy to report that it is more than the one I was going to build, so I will not be building one. This box also has the heating advantage, which I was not thinking about adding to my DIY box. Now on to the reviews: Yes, the hydrometer reading never goes below 15%. I added a budget meter inside the lid, but it only goes down to 10%. I believe the more accurate meters would increase the cost, so just seeing that it is drawing the humidity down is good enough for me. The user interface with only one knob is actually quite good. Also, the video here for the product show how to use it. You first set the C value, the the time value, then it starts working. I even use it to dry my desiccant pacs. Mine is not very loud. I have it running in my living room, with no problems. I have not used it yet to heat & feed my printer, but believe it should do well for that as well, but might add another hole to best suit an easy clean path for best filament flow. All & all, I am very happy with my purchase. Time will tell how well it holds up. I have dried PETG & PLA with no problem and after doing so, my AMS is reporting between 0-6 and my living room is mostly 25-35, so it looks like it doing it's job just fine... It is a simple plain Jane box, without a lot of bells & whistles, but all I need. I do recommend & would buy it again...

I didn’t realize how much moisture was affecting my prints until I got this filament dryer. Before, I struggled with brittle filament, stringing, and uneven layers—but after running my spools through this, the difference was night and day. The unit heats up quickly, and I love that I can set both the temperature and drying time depending on the type of filament (PLA, PETG, ABS, etc.). The display is easy to read, and it’s quiet enough that I can run it in the background without being bothered. Another bonus is that it doubles as a filament holder while printing, so my spools stay dry the entire time. It feels sturdy and well-built, and it doesn’t take up much space on my workbench. If you’re serious about 3D printing, this is a must-have. It saves wasted filament, improves print quality, and gives peace of mind knowing my spools are properly stored.

With this filament dryer, my success rate when printing PA12-CF has improved significantly! It’s also pretty quiet while running. Very happy with it.

All filament, even fresh out of the bag, has moisture content that's detrimental to print quality. You spent the money for the the printer and filament, get the most out of your investment with a dryer. This is a simple, one bay printer that goes up to 65C for drying PETG and other such filaments. The one knob system is a little quirky. Turn it to select either temperature or duration, press it to enter your selection, turn it to adjust the setting up and down, press again to store. Turn to the other and repeat. There's a hygrometer built in, to keep and eye on it, but its lowest value is 15%. I like to get it down to that and go another couple hours. They give you a reference chart for recommended settings based upon filament. Pro-tip: you need to leave the dryer open a crack so the moisture has somewhere to go. I don't think they really address that anywhere in the papers.

Works great.

I got it on sale for $39.99 with free shipping, and I got it within a day of ordering it. The product is cheaply made but it did what it advertised -- it blew hot air around the chamber and will eventually dry the filament. The chamber isn't sealed so you can't use it as a long-term filament storage. I won't believe what the humidity sensor tells me because the reading doesn't match my humidity sensor. The temperature sensor seems to be accurate enough though. The position of the filament pass-through hole makes it so that it wants to pull the filament up and towards the back, and if you want to filament to o in any other direction, it will take quite a bit of force to pull in any other direction. I ended up just print with the chamber open when I'm actually printing since the pass through hole was not allowing the filament to go the way I want it to go as easily as I would like. Overall, it's relatively cheap, it does its primary job just fine for now, but that's about it.

Extremely easy to use, though maybe a little effort to get used to the pattern in the input-movements from the dial/button to set temperature and times. I have not been able to get any of my rolls - pla or petg - below 13%, even if running for days, but it does manage to bring even a fairly humid roll down near there in a reasonable handful of hours. A table is provided to set the temperature for various materials - it would be nice if that table had been on a sticker that could be attached to it, but unnecessary once you're familiar with the process enough. Box is also very quiet, compared to the baseline noise of the fans in my printer, and takes up a very small footprint easy to fit anywhere. Can be used while feeding line through a port but I havent' had need to do that, just run it overnight on the material I want to use if the rolls are out and open, or before packing rolls away in vacuum bags for storage.

Funciona bien, he podido rescatar filamento que venía con humedad, se nota el cambio en la calida de impresión despues de procesarlo en la caja. Es recomendable ver la tabla de temperaturas y tiempo para cada material que viene impresa en la hoja. Los únicos contra que he visto hasta ahora es que el manual no viene en español, el orificio por donde sale el filamento no parece muy resistente y que el indicador de humedad en tiempo real no parece que realmente funcione.

Les deja un pequeño porcentaje de humedad pero cumple con su función

My son recommended this unit to go along with my printer when I first got into the hobby. After 10 months of continuous use, the dryer is still working without problem. I purchased another brand thinking they were basically the same, but was dead wrong! I cannot believe the difference in dry time. I totally regret the other purchase. We have had a very humid summer and there has been the odd time a spool was left out and not dry enough to get a decent print. This dryer corrects the humidity quite quickly allowing me to save time and material.

En la unidad que recibimos el botón de control no funcionaba bien (no presionaba para seleccionar función) y tuve que sacarlo y hacer una adaptación.
