"Must have tool for 3d printer owners"
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

Meshmixer is so easy to use. It comes with magic tools like hollowing and repairing 3d designed objects for 3d printing, You could also use it as a slicer for 3d printing. Meshmixer could get files from Fusion 360 which is one of the best 3d creation software on the market. Meshmixer can handle high surface triangle amounts easily. Thus you could process 3d scan data without problem with Meshmixer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

It is not a CAD software. So keep in mind that you can do only basic operations which are allowed to. 3d model rendering options are also limited. It should get more updates. It might be screwed from time to time depending on the 3d model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Better than most paid software"
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

Meshmixer is free, but it has everything I need to edit .STLs and .OBJ. Other free software can do this, but Meshmixer is easier to use. It also has a wide base of users, so getting answers/tutorials online is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

You can't export as a .STEP file, which isn't that big of an issue. The auto-repair and smoothing features have a learning curve. One or two of the interface/buttons annoy me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Necessary Tools to Alter Existing 3D Digital Models"
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

Meshmixer can, with practice, help you simplify, combine, and correct models that may not be exactly what you want, but are close. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

It takes some practice to get used to where everything is and how it works. It really requires some time watching videos or reading how to use it properly to use it to its full potential. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great software for editing an existing STL file "
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

Splitting a file is accurate and produces a good final product, it is especially good for when you need to perform multiple cuts of a file or when you need to smooth a file down or reduce the resolution for a better 3d print.

Custom supports in meshmixer are amazing and worth learning and are useful for FDM and SLA based printing, it gives you control of how a 3d print will look and where supports will attach, which is better than slic3r or cura. This is particularly useful for SLA printing, but make sure you practice with prints and monitor them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

The interface can take a while to learn and the mouse interface is not intuitive for a beginner, more included tutorials would be particularly useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The 3D tool- Meshmixer"
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

It provides with a very easy to use interface and provides tools which are really helpful for 3D printing. It also provides facility for 3D scan. Also it provides good support for file editing like Mesh repair. The best tool that they provide is the support generator tool that is used for 3D printing that generates images easily. Also the application is STL compatible and 3MF compatible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

When we wish to develop pieces from scratch then the software seems difficult to use. There is no such option to add on to the existing options or develop our own kind of objects. Also when we try to use the 3D tool, it moves slowly and lags sometimes as the cursor does not move at the speed we wish to move it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Meshmixer - One of the best 3d design programs"
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

It is one of the best 3D design tools, it is amazing how easy and comfortable it is to work with meshmixer, with meshmixer I can repair STL files that I download on the net, also I can soften textures allowing a better finish especially if I want to print it, which makes the work much easier and comfortable, also I think it is a very simple program to use and its tools are very useful, since I use it has made me much easier to make 3D designs, meshmixer is extremely reliable and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

There is nothing that I don't like about meshmixer, in fact I love it, it's the best design program I've used, the easy to use if intuitive interface and it's free is simply the best design program I've used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fine but improvable "
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

The fact that you can convert any kind of mesh into “solid” is one of the best feature of this software. It really helps you out in 3D printing applications. Also, the possibility to auto orient the model on the build plate in order to optimize supports (and we're talking of tree branches-like supports) is extremelu usefull! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

Sculpting is not one of the best features of this software and personally I think that it should really be improved. Often the software crashes but it save the last usable state of the scene so you can restore it once reopened. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Meshmixer the best 3D design program. "
What do you like best about Meshmixer?

I consider that a very complete design program and easy to use, with it I can modify 3D designs which I find very useful also if I download a STL file and is damaged with meshmixer I can repair it which makes it my favorite design program is very easy to use so you do not have much knowledge in design with meshmixer anyway you can make your 3D projects, also has many tools to work what helps a lot when making a project, the ability to make supports in the design really helps a lot, and the tool to soften textures is perfect if you find yourself making a video game, is a very complete and useful program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meshmixer?

I really think that meshmixer is perfect there is nothing I dislike about it, although I would say that sometimes if a file is very heavy the program does not let me work, but otherwise I think the program is perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
