From what I've seen in combat robotics, the Markforged prints are very high quality. I don't think the added fiber really makes a part more durable though as the failure is basically always going to be delamination which the fiber doesn't help, but it certainly makes it more rigid. I believe the kevlar is also the finest of the continuous fiber options which I believe will lead to the most durable parts. I'm really curious to hear how they survive, not cheap printers or material, but the quality is really good for a printed part.
