Excellent laser engraver well worth the money

I am prefacing this review with the note that this is my first laser machine, and I have no experience with any other type of machine besides a cricut. I'm not even great with computers... So total beginner! I was very intimidated before buying.Firstly, assembly of the machine was not nearly as complicated as I anticipated. The directions are a bit complicated or hard to understand in some parts, especially with the bad grammar, but I was able to complete it correctly the first time without even watching a video. Just really have to pay attention to the directions and what you're doing.Second, I decided to use the LaserGRBL program because its free and it was extremely easy to set up and connect to this machine. I installed the program, then the driver, and then just watched a quick 10 minute youtube video explaining the interface and how to engrave something. A few test prints later and I could complete the project I wanted to do! That said, there is a ton more to learn about this machine, the laser, and the program, so there will be a steep learning curve if you want it to do more than basic engraving on easy to burn material (I used cedar). Can't wait to try cutting!Side note, I originally wanted to engrave on brass cutouts, however I learned that this type of laser does not work well on materials like brass or copper. The brass I used did show up a bit but that was with quite a few passes, slow movement, and full power.

We've had this probably a year now and it still works great for what we bought it for...originally got it for leather hat patches but we do a lot more with it like key chains and acrylic ...money well spent

Been using this laser for over a year now and it's still going strong. Will definitely buy this brand again when it's time for a new one.

The engraver was easy to put together and started out great. I engraved a few peices quite well but on my 4th engraving the graphic was extremely hard to see. I troubleshooted but the laser is still engraving extremely weak. I also saw other reviews that had the same issue with the laser not working after a few engravings. Very disappointed about this, now I have to find an alternative.

It is a very forgiving machine so easy to use with little to no knowledge of the device. Is not made for fast or on demand work unless it is small. I have dropped it and cussed it but it keeps on working so I recommend it for any skill level and to have fun.

I purchase this item but because of health reason I be unable to work on the project I plan I return It without even using the machine. Is a great machine I got a friend Who has the exact one and does great work

The media could not be loaded. Its an awesome starter laser. I plan to buy a bigger frame. I'm using the laser for my wood projects like engraving pictures and engraving words
