Lowest I've seen this printer go for by $10. It'll hit $200 by end of year.

Been PETG printing on this thing for a server rack, since I've been stalled with my P1S messed up and waiting on replacement parts, enjoying it so far and recommend the ForgeX custom firmware for this to unlock lots of capabilities and features.

I've had a few 3d printers but I always come back to not wanting to deal with maintenance. Is this thing set it and forget it?

What are the maintenance that is a barrier to you? At $200 I might want to dip my toes into 3D printing to print things first my kids really but not if it's a lot of work.

Corexy printers like this, creality k1, bambu and their ilk, and elegoo centauri are all fairly low maintenance and are mostly plug in and print setups.

I had a makerbot that lasted for years and years but I always had to fight with leveling and replacing either the end or plate or something else. By the end it was basically a coin toss whether the print got halfway or not. I just want something I can at least get a year out of without needing to take big chunks of it apart.

The Pro is on sale for $356 with the coupon code. Worth it for $135 more?

Well the bigger build volume and full enclosure are something to consider, other you can just get the bare centauri for 200. May have to wait a while because it's on back/pre order.

This is $10 less than I paid for mine a year ago (purchased June 2024). I've really liked the machine. I've only printed PLA (it's inside my office so air quality is a concern). I'm still torn on recommending this vs the Elegoo Centauri Carbon. On paper, and if there was no wait, you are looking at about $90 more (depends on your tax rates). That $90 gets a moderately bigger build area, an enclosure and a long wait for the printer to show up. I spent about $50 adding the enclosure kit to my printer ($30+filament costs). The enclosure reduces the noise some and keeps dust out of the working parts.

I'm not sure I would buy the 5M Pro for $356 vs the Elegoo for $330. Again, I like the FF and based on my experience it's a known good printer. However, the build area and size again.

The 220mm cube vs 255 is only going to occasionally matter. A nice thing about the 220mm size is the printer works with Ender 3 sized build plates. Lots of cheap options for textured plates.

If, however, you are on a tight budget, well it would be easy to suggest the 5M vs say a Bambu A1mini or just about any other sub $300 bed slinger. It's also generally a really good starter printer.

I will note that I had to update my factory firmware to print the test cube model that came with the printer. Not impressed with that. However, since the printer accepts both wired and wireless networking I just plugged the thing in for 10 minutes or so and it did the firmware update. Now I have no issues. If you aren't interested in materials that need an enclosure and money is tight, this is a really good printer value.

Are the Centauri not-carbons available for order again?

Why is this deal marked as expired? The price is still good and the code ends June 29th?
