My nephew has been begging for a 3D printer, and frankly, I haven't felt too comfortable with the prices, and I thought the mechanics might be a little too advanced for a 13-year-old. But according to Mashable reviewer Adam Doud, the Centauri lineup is easy to use and budget-friendly.

In his review of the Centauri Carbon, Adam called it an "idiot-friendly 3D printer that even I could understand". He loved that it's "an entirely self-contained device" — meaning all the moving parts are housed safely inside an enclosure rather than exposed on an open table — and noted that the automated calibration and leveling save you from having to master complicated technical tasks on day one.

So if your little ones have been asking for a more advanced gift this year, this might be the one to get. Right now, you can get the Elegoo Centauri 2 Combo 3D Printer for $328.99, down from $461.99. That's a 29% discount or $133 in savings.

This upgraded Centauri 2 Combo model makes things even easier for beginners with its CANVAS system, which handles four-color printing automatically without requiring anyone to manually pause and swap filaments. It also uses the ElegooSlicer app so they can queue projects and monitor prints right from a phone. Plus, it prints at high speeds (up to 500mm/s), so nobody has to wait all weekend for a single build to finish.
