It's not perfect, but you can't beat it for the price!
There's a Reddit mpminidelta group, and a Wiki at mpminidelta.com which have good resources. There's an active FB group apparently but I have not looked at that.
Printed a couple cats perfectly. I put blue painter's tape on the bed to keep the bed clean and make removing the print easier. Have not needed glue-stick or anything else for PLA. I did have one cat fail when I forgot to heat the bed and it came loose from the bed about halfway through the print, so a little glue would probably have prevented that but keeping the bed warm seems to generally do it too.
I have now set up Cura and successfully printed a "Low poly fox" model from Thingiverse. It takes some fiddling around to get Cura configured properly. I used the Start and End Gcode from the Cat sample file. Cura by default wanted to print at 150mm/s which is ridiculously fast and just didn't stick to the bed. Changing the speed to something around 40mm/s in Cura made it about the same as the Cat print and I was successful getting the fox to print on the first try after that. I used Cura 3.2.1 along with the device profile available on the mpminidelta wiki.
I have been sticking with relatively small objects so far. Problems with using the full bed seem common with this printer due to flatness issues, so I have not wanted to push it yet. Even at full size this printer is relatively limited with the circular bed so rectangular models especially will be size limited. But it's great for small figures and items that fit naturally into a cylindrical volume.
I have only tried printing with PLA so far. People report difficulty getting the heated bed to go above 60C or so making ABS printing problematic. The printer claims in its specs it can go to 100C on the bed, but that doesn't currently seem to be the case. People are experimenting with custom firmware as a possible solution for this.
My printer shipped from Monoprice on 6/25/18 was version v44.160.3
I have been impressed at how quiet this printer has been so far after hearing how noisy it is supposed to be. So far it has not been loud at all.
It comes with an odd 161MB micro SD card which Windows claimed was "damaged" (though it read and worked fine in the printer). I let windows "repair" the card and it's happy now. I have been printing by saving Cura files to a laptop then copying them to the micro SD card using an SD adapter I already had (the printer does not come with a standard SD adapter for the microSD card), then loading the microSD card into the printer. I plan to try setting up Octoprint on a Raspberry Pi to remotely control and monitor the printer.
Getting started is really easy. You pull the printer out of the box, remove the packing tape and plastic, plug it in, put in the miniSD card, Home the print carriage from the menu to remove the big packing foam piece, then pre-heat, load your filament, and print as described in the manual (which isn't included in printed form so you have to get it off the SD card or just off the wiki or the Monoprice site).
The only issue I had initially was getting the filament through the printer. It seemed to stop before it actually got all the way in and just needed a bit more pushing to get past a restriction. You need to cut an angle/point at the end of the filament to help get it in. Using the Move->Extruder menu option to push the filament through (use the down button to load rather than up as indicated incorrectly in the manual). I pushed the filament a bit while clicking the down button until melted filament started coming out the extruder nozzle.
There are some places where the printer does not currently live up to its specs (bed heat limits, etc.) and it can be fiddly and requires some internet research to figure out, but so far for me it's making some great prints and I'm super happy with the performance for the price.
It's small, poorly documented, and has some issues, but still at the price how can I not give it five stars?
G.
P.S. added an image of a few things printed using Amazon Basics PLA in Gold and Perl White. The cats are the sample gcode file that comes with the printer, and the white fox is "Low Poly Fox" on Thingiverse and the articulated dinosaur is "Flexi-Rex Improved" also on Thingiverse (scaled down to 75% to fit comfortably on the bed). The dinosaur worked great and all the links between body segments are loose and he flops around like a length of chain.

So why this printer? Well, it's packed by a genius. My last one to arrive (today) showed up in a box that wasn't a cube anymore. All four corners had been kicked in. It literally had bootprints on it. And I didn't care. I didn't even hesitate opening it. Someone is going to break their foot before they break this printer. One of the things people love about the literally triple size FLSun Super Racer is the triple beam construction. THIS TINY PRINTER has the same thing. Massive beams on each corner. Add to the already huge strength of triangles, and this printer is never going to show up broken from shipping.
So that's one. THIS IS the strongest 3d printer. You can stand on it. You could build a house out of them. So why else?
It's BUILT. It's done. You don't have to build anymore. Turn it on and level it and use it. There's another reason:
Auto Leveling! No stupid wheels to spin no nothing. It does it all. And it keeps itself level.
It's inexpensive!
It's adorable!
It has REAL LINEAR RAILS on each corner! Good ones! The small ones don't cost as much as the big ones so they can do that. That makes this printer more accurate than some 500 dollars ones.
It does fantastic work! This will be your best small object printer.
Kids love it! Maybe too much. I keep giving them away. That's why this is my fourth one now. I've had all generations. They get incrementally better. If the next one has a decent BMG clone extruder and capricorn tubing and steel connectors, I'll only have to change the nozzle. This thing should just come with a 0.2 nozzle. It was made for them.
Simply put, outstanding printer. Outstanding value. Get a glue stick or some aquanet or prints won't stick. Otherwise, great product. If you want one a little bigger, get the FLSun Q5 but you will be graduating. You have to build that one, but it doesn't cost much more and has double the built area. I love deltas so I'll probably always have a MP Mini and a Q5. They both are such great printers.
One thing, it is clog prone. Keep a socket handy. I keep one on top of the printer. I keep the nozzle only hand tight. It loves most PLA at 190-195 and polymax at 200 dead. The accel and jerk are set really great at the factory. That's most of the speed of deltas. I do most prints at 50-40mm per second even though it can do more. You get slightly better quality.
I know folks that have farms of these things, and support themselves selling stuff on etsy. They are that good. You can use them for a business.
Anything else um, the spool holder is cute but not that great. I don't use it. I just sit a SunLu filament dryer behind it, and run the filament out of the top corner feed hole on it into the printer. It lines up perfect. DO NOT run a filament dryer while printing. Your filament will get elastic and pulled long and lose diameter and your extruder will lose grip. Learned this the hard way.
Hope this helps.

Cons: No wireless printing, Finding a Cura profile is tricky, Pricey, Non removable print bed.
Setting up this printer was seamless, I loved the USB stick option which is located beside the screen. The power button is also very conveniently located. The auto leveling probe works great. I have no real complaints
Las instrucciones incluidas son muy limitadas pero en línea existen muchos Foros y Wikis que pueden ayudar.
Igualmente la impresión por WiFi es poco confiable pero imprimir por MicroSD es facil y rápido.
Y hablando de la MicroSD, esta es un formato especial. El lector no es compatible con las nuevas generaciones (HC, XD, etc.) deberás de utilizar una MicroSD de primera generación las cuales son algo costosas, $1000 por 1GB. Pero la MicroSD que está incluida es de 128MB y me ha sido suficiente.
Como extras les sugiero comprar un base de cristal (con pegamento de barra) o usar masking tape, esto hace más facil remover las impresiones sin necesidad de usar un Raft en el objeto.
First of all you don't even know what version of the printer you are buying. Some come with different actual hardware (step controllers). The print bed is loose from the factory with no way to keep it still during printing without additional hardware.
The auto bed leveling feature is a gimmick and does not function, as sometimes the print head will just randomly dive into the build plate, causing damage to both.
With about 1kg of filament through the machine, the LCD screen is failing. The printer is unreliable to an extreme, with many more failed prints than successes. Even with the great support group on facebook, I hugely regret wasting the money on this beta test that was advertised as a finished project.
Monoprice customer service is worthless as well, offering no help or answers to the endless problems.
