The ELEGOO Mars 2 Mono MSLA 3D Printer is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a reliable 3D printer with excellent build quality, controls, and functionality. Featuring a 6.08 inch 2K Monochrome LCD and a printing size of 129x80x150mm/5.1x3.1x5.9inch, this 3D printer utilizes UV photocuring LCD resin technology to deliver detailed prints with even UV light emissions. The printer is also made of CNC machined aluminum for enhanced durability. Visit the ELEGOO store to learn more about this top-rated 3D printer, and discover why it is the best choice for easy to use, print quality, and more. Samuel KoepnickSamuel Koepnick: I've been wanting to get into this for awhile. The theory behind it is simple. Build plate moves upward while the LCD display at the bottom shines ultraviolet light (405nm) which polymerizes the bottom layer of resin in the reservoir. Wait 6 or so seconds, raise by 0.5mm and repeat. It seemed so simple that I went back and forth between simply building my own out of cell phone remnants and an Arduino. In the end I opted to buy this, telling myself that the worst case scenario was that I'd salvage it for parts that I'd need anyway for rolling my own.
I'm honestly not sure what I was expecting. Possibly a simple aluminum shell with off-the-shelf components and a USB port. Let's be honest here, if you're looking at this you're probably a maker and are likely way more interested in the output than the aesthetics of the machine itself. But the thing is very professional looking. If you saw it in a university lab or a prototyping facility I doubt you'd bat an eye.
First thing. The package arrived on time and in immaculate condition. I have no idea who actually is responsible for packing those things, but the styrofoam was so tight around the components that I had to use a...

Scott PresbreyScott Presbrey: I ordered the Elegoo Mars around the first of the year. My experience has been positive overall. The support is very good, and I found that using the facebook Elegoo Mars group is very helpful as well. Some pros and cons:
Pros:
-Very easy to set-up and use (software is relatively simple to use). Far fewer settings to adjust vs FDM printers (only 5 or 6 settings really make a difference in the end product)
-Less finicky than FDM printers (not as susceptible to print fails from factors like first layer adhesion/settings). It's very forgiving.
-Incredible detail and resolution
-Good support
-Resin is ideal for painting
-Relatively low maintenance
Cons:
-A bit messy
-A bit smelly (not as bad as people mention IMO).
-A bit slow. Not a true con, because DLP laser resin printers are expensive, commercial grade printers for higher volume application.
-Elegoo resin sticks to everything and transfers easily. 99% isopropyl/ethyl are the only readily available solvents to remove resin from surfaces. (Tip: after printing, rinse with 99% isopropyl or ethyl alcohol, then water, then alcohol and water again.)
-Quality control: I had to return first 2...
