ELEGOO Mars 4 MSLA Resin 3D Printer with 7-Inch 9K Monochrome LCD, Multiple Print Modes and Voxeldance Tango Slicing Software, Printing Size of 6.04x3.06x6.89 Inches

I've had many 3D printers but this is my first resin printer and it does well!! Because of the leveling tank, almost all the guess work is taking out. Just wish resin printers didn't smell, but I was able to add a ventilation system to the case it came with!

Print quality is good, very small layer capability. Very impressed with how small figures can be printed. Customer service is good, just don't harass them cuz they're not engineers, they didn't design the 3D printer, they help with issues with the printer is/can be having. Problem is with the manual and the screws that come with the 3D printer. In the manual it says to use Chitubox, but Chitubox(pro, beta, basic) (after being updated) won't/can't save projects/prints as .ctb format which is the file format required to make prints on this product. So I downloaded Lychee Splicer which can save files as .ctb files. Also, watch for print remnants that can stay in the resin, that stopped me from printing for 25 minutes and forcably unevened the top printing plate. The screws have a plastic thing on them that after time becomes stripped and very annoying to get off. To fix that, I bought M4/#4 screws that are 40 mm's (1.578 inches) long along with nuts for those screws to act as spacers and replaced the screws that came with the 3D printer. I used a 9/32 socket on a socket wrench to remove/put back the 40 mm screws into/out of the the resin tank. Otherwise everything else is good.So in short, despite the manual saying to download Chitubox, download Lychee Slicer by Mango 3D if you want to be able to save files into usable files/prints. Also, I would recommend buying M4 screws that are 40 mm's long and nuts for those screws (to act as spacers) to replace the inevitably gonna be stripped screws that come with the 3D printer.So in short in short, before buying this product, for maximum succession (without unexpected stuff), it's recommended to download Lychee Slicer by/from Mango 3D and to buy M4 screws that are 40 mm's long as well as nuts for those screws. And to have a socket wrench with an usable 9/32 sockets for those screws.

Quite frankly the ball and socket build plate design will cause print failures. Quite frankly the normal 4 bolt style build plate that everyone else uses and that Elegoo even uses, is cheaper to manufacture, easier to setup, and sturdier. SO WHY does this have the ball and socket still. Elegoo made the best 3d printer I've ever owned then handicapped it with their poor design.the prints are beautiful as long as you take care to be gentle with the build plate, and level it every so often.If you are a beginner this printer isn't the best but won't be the worst by far. For the experienced printer the quality is unmatched.

Fantastic entry level resin printer and at an unbeatable price. I have now printed through 3, 1000g bottles of resin and have had very minimal failures, most of which were imo design or support flaws that were easy to correct and printed fantastic once corrected. The setup is insanely quick and the program is super easy to use although I use another program for my supports as is my personal preference. I highly recommend to anyone looking to get into resin printing and the only advice would be to get a better thumb drive, I personally have not had issues with mine that weren't quick fix but every once in awhile I have to unplug and replug in the thumb drive to get it to read on both the pc and printer but that has been 2 out of probably 100 uses. I have stress tested this printer to an insane degree and even gone 20 consecutive prints without cleaning or re-leveling with only one single failure in that 20 where the print detached from the print bed and that was the 20th print. Well done Eligoo this printer is tops.

Works fantastic and is a cheap way to make your way into the 3d printing hobby or business.

The media could not be loaded. Honest Review: I am a regular Amazon buyer who makes many verified purchases continuously and until I get a full refund I will not change my opinion about the ELEGOO Mars 4 MSLA Resin 3D Printer which turned out to be a huge disappointment and a piece of junk. Lines appear on the 9K monochrome LCD and objects simply do not stick to the build plate no matter the settings or adhesion times on the first few layers I try. I am very disappointed with this 3D printer because it is clearly a manufacturing defect.Despite setting exposure times of 60 seconds, objects refuse to stick to the entire plate (only in parts, check out the video I made). Also the prints always come out crooked, probably also because of a slightly crooked Z-axis as I leveled and calibrated a sheet of paper a thousand times to make it neither too tight nor too loose and it still prints poorly. Not counting the amount of money I have lost on bottles of resin from the same Elegoo brand that I also bought on Amazon and that I chose with the hardest quality like ABS 3.0 trying to MAKE IT WORK AND STICK. To make matters worse, Amazon customer service refuses to cover the full shipping costs to return it and get a refund. They only say that due to policies they cover a measly $150usd, while returning the printer costs me $350usd. All this by sending them and showing them quotes from three different carriers, that is, they insist and they don't care that I spend an extra $200usd but that I return it so that they can refund me $180usd which is what I paid for the printer. What a lack of common sense, who does that? (This is the reason why I have stopped making new orders on Amazon and have canceled those that were in the shopping cart in process, there is no Guarantee).Please do yourself a favor and avoid this printer with its inadequate support from this Elegoo brand and all of their products and consumables. I hope to do an update soon and let you know what is going on with this case and if this Elegoo company has spoken with Amazon to resolve something. I will keep you posted.In the meantime, save your money and look elsewhere for a 3D printer that actually works. Thank you for taking the time to read this extensive honest review and I hope you will follow my advice.
