Best Elegoo 3D printers

Top pick: Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra — the easiest way into resin printing: 9K detail, automation that cuts the fiddly setup, small footprint. Best for miniatures and first-timers.

Then, by what you print:

• Saturn 4 Ultra — the bigger, higher-detail resin machine for larger models, busts and batches.
• Neptune 4 Plus — big FDM build volume and fast speeds; best value if you print terrain, props or parts.
• Centauri Carbon 2 Combo — enclosed, very fast FDM for people moving on to tougher filaments.
• Neptune 4 Pro — the compact, dependable starter FDM pick.

Resin gives finer detail; FDM gives bigger, tougher parts.
