Comgrow Z1 5W 10W (COMGO Z1 10W)

Works really good , material used is also very good. Assembly / setup fairly easy. 10W is absolutely enough for the hobbyist. Enjoy creating cool stuff with it.

While the assembly required looked daunting on first unboxing, the included colour instruction book made it very clear and easy to understand. This machine has features making it comparable to machines currently selling for double the price or more. One Suggestion-save your sanity, forgo messing with Laser GRBL and use LightBurn. Again, for the features and your sanity, the cost after the trial is so very worth it.

Dabbling in the world of 3d printing I wanted to get a laser engraver/cutter that was affordable. I remember using them during ym college days. I settled on a Comgrow based on the printer that I have and the previous interactions with Comgrow, I knew that it would be a good printer for a decent price Pros: Easy Assembly, if you look up YouTube videos you will see many saying how easy this is to set up. They are totally true! This does not contain Ikea directions. I think it took less time than setting up my Ender 5. Compatibility, you will need to use software to create and send the information to the laser engraver. Being compatible with Lightburn and laserGRBL is a plus. Comgrow also has an app you can use from your phone. Accessories, I think this is another area the printer shines, it has an air assist module to help keep wood cleaner from the burns, a hex plate to use as a backer while cutting, an enclosre to keep fumes more contained, and lastly probably the coolest one; a rotary roller for engraving mugs, cups, baseball bats, and whatever round items you can come up with. Dual Y axis stepper motors, this helps keep the printer aligned as it moves back and forth and having a stepper on both sides increases the accuracy. Cable routing, some thought was given into some of the cable routing as it is run through the extruded aluminum instead of outside it. This limits the chance of disconnect a motor. Cons: V Groove wheels, these feel cheap and will wear down. Dealing with a 3d printer you know that eventually you will have to replace them and are always dreaming of something slightly better. Connectivity, this connects directly to your computer with USB or to your phone with wifi. Unfortunately the wifi module used does not allow you to connect to your network and only to your phone. This I view as a con, I couldn't wait to get my 3d printer worked up to the network so I didn't have to sit right by it to use it. The same goes for this laser engraver, I would prefer to put it somewhere else and not have to sit right next to it. I believe there are some ways to get it to connect with other devices, but I have not tried them. SD card access, although you may not need to use this often, to use it you have to unscrew one of the motherboard box mounts and then rotate it to get access. USB connection, I'm not sure if this is prevalent in the laser engraver / cutter world but not seeing a USB-C or Micro USB on the motherboard end was a little shocking. Again in the world of 3d printing almost all newly released boards use USB-C Hex Cutting Plate, I do not know how much this would adjust the price but I feel like this should be included in the base set. Reality Check: Is this anything like what I used in college? Eh, no. There is a huge difference between CO2 laser devices and this LED type laser. Don't expect to cut through thick pieces or faster cutting or engraving times. This is a 'hobby' laser cutter, and if you step into the ring thinking about it this way then for the price and features it is a good machine to get your feet yet. I would recommend springing for the 10w version as it can cut thicker materials than the 5w.
