The Creality Ender 3 V3 SE is even cheaper for Cyber Monday — our Best Budget 3D Printer hits an all-time low
Fast and affordable 3D printing
The Creality Ender 3 V3 SE has been our best 3D printer budget champ all year, and today, you can get it at an even lower price of $169 at B&H Photo for Cyber Monday. This is an all-time low for this printer, so now is really the best time to take the plunge if you’ve been waiting to get one.
The Ender 3 V3 SE is a great 3D printer for beginners. It ships mostly assembled, so it will just take a few minutes to build it, so you can start printing almost immediately. This printer includes premium features like auto bed leveling, a direct drive Sprite extruder, and a 3-inch color screen that makes it easy to use. When we tested the V3 SE, we were impressed with its speed and performance. It worked wonderfully right out of the box, so no extra fuss or calibration was needed.
Creality Ender V3 SE: now $169 at B&H Photo (was 229)
The Creality Ender V3 SE is a solid medium-format entry-level 3D printer. It comes with premium features such as auto leveling and a Sprite extruder. It is easy to assemble and supports various materials such as PLA, TPU, and PETG (up to 260 degrees C).
With a build volume of 220 x 220 x 250 mm, the Creality Ender 3 V3 SE is capable of producing many different models and useful creations. In our review of the V3 SE, we printed 3dprintbunny’s Safe from the Rain with 3Domsculpts' Chibi Totoro and got great results.
The V3 SE has a maximum print speed of 250mm/s, so don’t let the price fool you. This printer is also fast. There is one caveat, though: it does not support Wi-Fi. It does include an SD card with pre-sliced models that you can start with. So, if you can live without wireless connection support, this printer is for you. I have one of the older Creality Ender 3s myself, and I have been happy with its performance and still use it as a secondary machine.

Faceeeeeee If anyone's thinking of taking the plunge on one of these I would say don't.Reply
Mine just stopped working after 2 months because the bed leveling probe has failed and so far try to speak to their customer services is like talking to a brick wall. -

Hey mate, have you tried pulling the probe end down with your fingers or tweezers?Faceeeeeee said:If anyone's thinking of taking the plunge on one of these I would say don't.

Mine gets stuck every few weeks and if I pull the probe down then power cycle it after one of these mishaps it comes right and it's good again for weeks.
It happened a lot in the beginning but overtime it's far less frequent and doesn't bother me.
