HGB Atom-Stack Laser Engraver, A5 Pro Full-Metal Laser Engraving Machine with 5.5W Compressed Optical Spot, Quick Assembly, Laser Cutter for Wood, Acrylic, Metal, Leather, Pet Tag, 400x410mm

If you are wanting to get into laser engraving, I highly recommend this engraver. Easy set up and easy to use. The laser head does great at engraving many materials.

I purchased this to be able to do some custom wood coasters for a relative's wedding. Now, I've been bitten by the engraving bug. This thing went together way faster and easier than I had expected. I was actually dreading the whole project thinking I'd spend a whole day assembling, setting up, getting it to interface with software, etc. But that was wrong! within 20 minutes I had the engraver assembled, hooked up and starting to talk with the PC. There are plenty of free engraving software packages online. I have experience with 3D printers and slicing software so there wasn't much of a learning curve for me but your mileage may vary depending on experience. It worked fantastic on the wooden coaster blanks. The instructions were easy to follow. Everything was in the box and went together as expected. And seems to be pretty powerful and able to handle a range of materials.

Laser Engraver, A5 Pro Full-Metal Laser Engraving Machine with 5.5W Compressed Optical Spot, Quick Assembly, Laser Cutter for Wood, Acrylic, Metal, Leather, Pet Tag, 400x410mmGreat machine that puts together in ten minutes easily. We had it up and working much faster and easier than expected.We chose to use LaserGRBL software with it because it's free. This engraver works great with that software. All of our projects have come out fantastic! We have done projects using both wood and metal and came out impressive and professional looking!This is a great laser engraver for beginners, like us, as you can just open this and start with literally no knowledge of engraving. The assembly instructions are straightforward and simple to follow. The software I mentioned is a free download and is also aimed toward beginners, so nothing complicated.This is a very cool engraver and functions perfectly. Highly recommended.

Not that this laser engraver can't do most things one would like to try with a decent laser engraver, but the point is that this one is simple to put together (do read and follow the instructions if this is your first laser) and while like any laser engraver, there is a learning curve to understand what the best settings will be for the different materials (wood, glass, leather, etc.) as well as if you are attempting to cut through thin wood or simply engrave an image on it. I have used LaserGRBL and find it to be a great (plus free) piece of software that will allow you to use this laser engraver. If you have been wanting to try out a new hobby and maybe make some unique gifts for friends and family (imagine a newborn photo engraved on a heart-shaped piece of wood that can hang on baby's first Christmas tree as an example), this is an excellent laser engraver to get you started.

This engraver has done very well for us. We have used it a decent amount and it performs very nicely!! It is easy to use and the engraving is perfect! It does even more than I thought initially as well. Great Engraving Machine!! Highly Recommend!!

This is a good laser that was easy to assemble and get working. the chassis is sturdy and everything slides smoothly. I would buy again. 5 STARS
