Mine is from 2015. I purchased the PrintrBot 1403. Since its inception of the mfg. build, I have altered it a bunch. Now, I can print the 450mm * 152mm * 400mm. I am still working on the 152mm Y_Axis now. It is goin' to take some plates basically to extend the Y_Axis. I just need to do it right. I botched the X_Axis with my lack of reasoning and/or thought out processes. Anyway, I updated to an i3 recently for quicker printing and more fine-tuned printing. Smaller printer (now) but works well.I have a very old 3D printer (2016) but in my experience 3D printed threads would fail quite quickly in real life use. I would have thought the brass inserts would be far better. (just my view)

P.S. And yes sir, the 3D Printing for threading in my view is really for aesthetics and not particularly for real world applications.
