Never used one but the specs are impressive. Large build area and 0.8mm nozzle will be great for the big stuff and 0.25mm nozzle and 0.02mm layers will print great detailed parts.

There is a plausible reasoning behind the thought that it may work out cheaper to design the parts, upload them to somewhere like Shapeways, and get them to create the print on their multi-million pound hi tech printers in any material you want? Just a thought.
Having small nozzles is a huge benefit on this printer. It's tiny design detail that the 0.4 nozzles struggle with. The downside is that the smaller the nozzle, the longer the print time, and if it goes pear shaped ten hours into a print, or you forget something in the design...you have to start all over again. The bigger the nozzle the lower the print quality but its a lot faster. It's swings and roundabouts.
