These are customer returns
for parts or tinkering. So not necessarily running machines unless you fix a few things. Not something to buy as your first 3D printer.
However, they are inexpensive at $59 with free shipping, especially if you can't pick up a $99 Ender 3 V2 from MicroCenter nearby.
I would mainly see this as a base for a project where you want to convert the printer to something else, like one of those Ender 3 belt printer conversions, etc. Or just use it for parts.
The $69 Ender 3 Pro could also be converted to a Voron Switchwire for example.
There are also some
refurbished [creality3d.store] machines with a 10% discount, which are checked and should work out of the box.
Ender 3 specs:
- 220 x 220 x 250 mm print volume
- Bowden extruder
- Prints PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU
- 0.4mm Nozzle Diameter
- Printing precision 0.1mm
- Movement speed up to 180mm/s
- Heated print bed
- 270W Power Supply

My favorite brand for returned machines has been Voxelab, I have a Voxelab Aquila, and a Voxelab Aquila S2 that I bought as used returns. both were super easy to fix.
I can't say that my experience is typical. But for $60 a fairly experience 3D Printing enthusiast can get these running pretty well for a basic bed slinger. The motors and Alu extrusion alone for a machine that isn't worth getting working is probably worth more than $60.
I'm looking at getting a couple for the specific purpose of converting them to Voron Enderwires (Switchwire Core XZ printer from a stock Ender 3).
complicated to assemble
