Here's a great opportunity to pick up a fully featured 3D printer for a supremely low price. AliExpress is currently offering the Anycubic Kobra 3 3D Printer Combo - which also includes the Anycubic Ace Pro Multi-Color Printer Module - for just $224.71 after you apply $45 off coupon code: "USBS45" that you apply during checkout. You're buying it from Anycubic's official store on AliExpress. It ships free locally from the United States and arrives within 1 to 2 weeks. The exact same combo sells for $360 on Amazon. This is a phenomenal deal for a 3D printer, let alone one that also includes the multi-printing module that normally sells for $200+ by itself. The price makes this an ideal introduction to the world of 3D printing for the fledgling first-timer testing out a new hobby, but there are enough features here to satisfy the seasoned professonal looking for a second 3D printer.
Anycubic Kobra 3 3D Printer Combo for $224.71
Includes the Ace Pro Multi-Color Printing Module
The Anycubic Kobra 3 is an open bed printer with a working space measuring approximately 10" cubed. It boasts a print speed of up to 600mm/s with 20,000mm/s² acceleration and can print a benchy in under 12 minutes. Other features include an accelerometer G-sensor that allows for auto-leveling and vibration compensation, a 200W dual PTC heating system to keep a stable temp for consistent filament drying, and easy to use touchscreen controls. Assembly is quick and easy and you should be able to make your first test print in a matter of minutes.
The Ace Pro multi-filament module fleshes out the 3D printing capabilities. It's also what makes this deal so good because it normally sells for $200 or more by itself. This add-on allows you to print using up to four different colored filaments simultaneously. It features intelligent identification filament sync, nozzle clog detection, and active heating for filament drying. It also stores the filament in a sealed container to avoid foreign contamination.
There are plenty of other 3D printer options out there. I've personally enjoyed using a Bambu Lab 3D printer. Keep in mind, however, that none of them will offer similar features (especially the multi-color printing) for even close to the same price.
