This is the fifth 3D scanner have owned over the past 12 years. It addresses all the limitations I had with previous scanners while being easy to use. Lots of options to maximize the quality of the scan while minimizing scan time for the wide range is objects we scan. The versatility is beyond what we had hoped for when we backed the kick starter project

THREE is a powerhouse, plain and simple. I've been scanning professionally for almost 5 years now, having used offerings from Artec, Einscan, and Faro. Its ability to capture surfaces that most other scanners struggle with, the detail retrieval, ease of use, flexibility and painless processing, are all worth noting on their own. But putting all of that under a prosumer price point makes this powerful little scanner something to behold. Plus, the synchronized turntable is a cherry on top of the sundae that is THREE.

This review is of the initial release and there are areas lacking like texture capture, but it can be improved on the user's side with decent lighting. Amazingly, this is the only real gripe I've had with it and it's minor. There were concerns on reddit before its launch that the 16GB of storage would be too little, but after scanning everything that was scannable on my desk at the highest density possible, I'm 22 projects in on the scanner and the storage is not even half full. I'm not sure how they are doing it, but it seems they have tapped into quantum physics and are storing scan data in a pocket dimension (don't quote me on that).

In summary, I am exceedingly happy with what THREE can do and I look forward to scanning literally everything I can get my hands on!

The M&F Three is the best 3D scanner I've ever used. I have another, but it is such a headache to use, and the aligning of scans is a nightmare. But the Three makes the process so easy. I love the integration with the turntable, and the scanning options that allows. The alignment process is so much more accurate, and it captures textures really well, too. The price is high, but if you plan to do a lot of scanning it pays for itself with its ease of use and quality scans. You won't be disappointed!

This is a great 3D scanner! Much better than my old one. It's able to capture much finer details.

The auto alignment of multiple scans is a great feature and does a good job. On some objects it fails but then you can just manually align.

It's also great that everything is built in. Before I had to stay near my desktop as my previous scanner needed a decent PC but now I can use my old laptop as the processing is built into the scanner

The MAF Three exhibits excellent scan quality for the price point, quite close to metrology-grade scanners used in industry that cost 10x its price.

The software is also very intuitive once you get the hang of the concept, and I really like their approach, it seems powerful without being abstruse.

Overall a great product and a great value.
