ANYCUBICPhoton Mono 4, Resin 3D Printer with 7'' 10K Mono LCD Screen, Stable LighTurbo Light Source and 70mm/h Fast Printing, Print Volume 6.04'' x 3.42'' x 6.49''

I was a little hesitant about getting into resin printing, but the ANYCUBIC Photon Mono 4 has completely won me over. Right out of the box, setup was quick and straightforward. The instructions were clear, and within an hour, I had my first test print done.The print quality is fantastic—sharp details, smooth surfaces, and minimal layer lines. I’ve printed miniatures, custom parts, and even some intricate models, and everything has turned out beautifully. The monochrome screen speeds up print times while also lasting longer than traditional LCDs, which is a huge plus.I also appreciate how user-friendly this printer is. The resin vat and build plate are easy to clean, and leveling is simple compared to other printers I’ve used. So far, I’ve had zero failed prints, which speaks to how well-calibrated this machine is.If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality resin printer at a great price, this is definitely the one to get. Highly recommended!

Liked:I liked the easy setup and high resolution. It prints fast - about twice as fast as my current 4k printer. The print size is large enough to accommodate most prints you'd want, while not being so large that it takes an entire bottle of resin to get to a good level. The bed is very easy to level and feels more secure than my Elegoo Mars 3 with four points to tighten rather than just two. If you have a print where a piece fell off, it give you an option after each print to clean the vat - I love that!Disliked:It feels a little cheap. Very lightweight and the cover is an almost flexible plastic. But, they had to get that price down somehow, am I right? Neither of these things affect print quality, o they don't bother me much.I will probably order another so I can print more, faster.

This printer is my first foray into printing 3d models of characters and the setup was quick, and quite easy despite that the leveling is manual it is also straightforward, and the overall user experience is beginner friendly. I really like the laser-engraved build plate and resume function, plus the included tools helped me out quite a bit for a first print.Print quality is consistently high, even with minimal settings tweak on the slicer, I did notice some lines on my print but I feel like that is more due to my settings and trying to understand things.However it also has its downsides which include a mostly plastic build, a small low-quality touchscreen, and a slicer (Photon Workshop) that can be buggy, so I ended up using two slicers with the Photon just for printer settings and export. ALSO the biggest downside is the FEP is a whole unit complete and stretched that is not compatible with any other models and you do need to buy specifically, which I had to do it asap due to it quickly making my prints fail due to the lightest scratch. Still, for the print quality and price, it’s a great entry-level resin printer with good results.

14 year old approved. Nice quality and durable. The prints have come out flawless every time. Was simple to put together and start 3d printing. He loves it

This is a pretty good resin printer especially for its price point. I naturally would like a little bigger printable dimensions; especially in the y axis. It’s really easy to set up and use, I would be even happier if they had at least an option to add a heater & fume filter but I had no difficulties with printing as long as the room was at least 68 degrees. Another bonus is Anycubics new water soluble resin, as long as the lid is on the fumes aren’t a big issue. The clean up and washing is so much better with only water instead of isopropyl alcohol. After some more experience, I will be buying a bigger Anycubic unit but I will definitely keep this one for smaller prints, saves on resin use.

First couple of prints were great and the software was pretty good however I quickly ran into multiple issues usb port started acting up and would only pick of the files only so often. There is no clear instructions of guide to the settings on the machines everything must be learned through your own research and failure. The cherry on top the resin vat started leaking leaving cured reain on the lcd screen completely ruining the entire thing. I cant really say id recommend especially for beginners into this hobby. Ive started a return on this product but and will be sending it back but not confident ill even get a refund. Which honestly this thing has been such a headache I dont care if rather just not continue looking at it.

I love it. I’m still new at it and have hiccups but the machine works great and came with good instructions on set up.

I was a little apprehensive about getting into resin printing but this printer is easy to use. The print quality is there. It’s a perfect starting printer.I would recommend an enclosed printing tent that has an exhaust fan you can hook up to a window to keep the fumes from accumulating inside the room you are printing in
