Trying to surprise my partner with a 3D printer
I always recommend the same two printers for all beginners because they’re just great starting points without spending a lot of money ($300-400 USD range). They are easy to use and learn, have all the features/specs you need, and are just quality/reliable machines. For just basic single color printi

I'm looking to buy my first 3d printer
I would not buy any of them, paying >300$ in 2026 for an outdated not enclosed bedslinger while 100$ more gets you a fully enclosed coreXY which can print technically material up to 350⁰C is not a good idea. Compare your selection with this printer: https://de.elegoo.com/products/centauri-carbon-2-c

CC1 User Asking, Is The CC2 Worth Buying?
Hey there u/Outrageous_Cut2782 I've been doing printing quite a long time and have seen some really bad printers back in the day (looking at you early Makerbots) and seen how far they've come along lately. I never owned the CC1 but I do own the Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 and have been using it for a l

Centauri Carbon 2 Standalone?
At this time, they haven't announced a version or variety without the Canvas system. I will say, when I use my CC2, the Canvas is really nice if you have left over spools of the same filament lying around. I have 3 printers and when I have something like a 1/3 left of a filament roll, I add them ont

I just got my new cc2 and love it and im wondering what are the 1st things I should do to keep having a good experience 🤔
Hey u/Severe_Confusion_424 Congrats on your new 3d printer! Longtime Elegoo owner here and recent Centauri Carbon 2 owner as well (i got about 300 hours printing time on it), Just a few pieces of advice: 3d Printing is a continuous learning affair - the more you learn the more you're going to want to

$40 bucks at a thrift store started my 3D printing journey
Your story is pretty similar to mine. I was at a thrift store and found an Ender 3 V2 for $60 on a half off everything day so I got it for $30. The price sticker had a ? and said "As Is". I plugged it in, and I could see some light from the back screen so that was good enough for me. I took it home

Lost looking for a printer. Advice much appreciated
Get an A1 - it will be MUCH kinder to you than any of the others you’ve listed. If your goal is to PRINT stuff that’s the best entry point. Second would be the Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2.

New to 3d printing and shopping around
Despite what others may say, the Elegoo brand was made as a functional and affordable brand to get you a product that isn't overly expensive but it also isn't made to be a "Premium" printer. Parts wear out, maintenance is required, and the manufacturer stands by their products in many times even pas

Holt mich bitte ab
Ich habe seit ca. drei Monaten den Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2 Combo. Das war auch mein erster 3D Drucker. Hatte bisher keine Erfahrungen in dem Bereich. Ich muss sagen, dass ich wirklich zufrieden mit dem Drucker bin. Ausgepackt, automatische Kalibrierung gestartet und losgedruckt. Wenn ich Druckfehle

Which Printer help
What items do you want to print? What materials will you be printing from? How large of parts do you want print? Do you want multifilament/multicolor capability? Printing parts for automobiles is a lot different than printing miniatures for gaming, for example. Lots of overlap, but I would want your
