Centauri Carbon

I know people are probably still going to find things to hate about the whole multicolor situation with the CC and how it took longer than expected, but you can't deny that Elegoo kept their promise and that $55 is way lower than any of us were expecting to pay for it. Excited to have mine pre-order

I have both. Resin has better resolution and for my stuff, prints much faster than filament. One model took 36 hours on an Elegoo Centauri Carbon and 10 hours on a Saturn Ultra 4. I also find resin a lot simpler to maintain. WIth filament it seems I'm always fixing extruder jams and have to watch th

The only brand you've mentioned that I have first-hand experience with is Prusa, but I have gathered the following from YouTubers I trust and Reddit posts I don't suspect as marketing bots. Bambu printers are good. The hardware is solid. I don't care for Bambu as a company, for similar reasons to wh

I've been enjoying my Elegoo Centauri Carbon. Calibrating the slicer for the filaments and nozzles is tedious (but not hard), but you have to do it for every printer that doesn't have exquisite presets just dialed dead nuts in. There is a successor coming out that has a filament switcher. I don't re

I just did my first print on it last night with PETG, a b/w hueforge image. Turned out AMAZING. I have had no real deal breaking issues myself. The only thing I can say is that there is a known bug in the current firmware for binding/connecting it to wifi for remote viewing and control in both web a

Honestly with how much they pushed multicolor coming to CC1 if there isn’t a upgrade kit that’s reasonably priced that is available at the same time as the CC2 I’m completely done with Elegoo. I bought the CC1 under the impression and idea that multicolor would eventually come knowing i’d likely hav

I send this email [UPDATE] Dear Elegoo Europe team, I am writing to express my strong dissatisfaction and serious concern regarding the Elegoo Centauri Carbon printer I purchased during the pre-sale period in February 2025 (Order #EE34). At the time of purchase, the printer was explicitly advertised

Seeing the rest of the post, I agree with the other comment that you are asking for the Multi Material Unit. There is a post that someone was able to load a bit of custom firmware and use a self built MMU in place of the elegoo one, but it does require quite a bit if work. Also, when elegoo released

I just really hate that Prusa stuff is priced so far out of reach for me. Like I’ve got two Bambu printers and combined even with AMSes cost less than a Core One. I know there are options like Elegoo but from friends having troubles with other brands…I’ve been afraid to try. EDIT: was typing this on

If you are already looking at Bambu, most of their enclosed printers are beginner friendly - maybe with an exception for the H2 series of industrial printers. If you don't want to use the Bambu printers, then I'd go with the Elegoo Centauri Carbon (either version) as they're beginner friendly and si
