3D Printing Black Friday: Honest Look at Elegoo, Creality & Bambu Lab Offers
It’s Black Friday time again. Here's a round up of the major deals in the desktop 3D printing space, including hardware, materials, accessories and more.
It’s easy to get lost in the noise of Black Friday, and retailers employ many tactics to bamboozle you into thinking something is a better deal than it really is. Most 3D printing manufacturers are no different, sadly, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still deals to be had.
In our opinion the most transparently presented deals can be found at Prusa, whose Black Friday sale runs through to December 1.
In addition to free shipping, you get some hundreds of dollars of extras bundled with the company’s core printers. The Prusa Core One+ is available either as a kit or assembled for $999 or $1299, respectively, with a Buddy 3D camera, 1kg of Prusament PLA Lipstick Red, $50 worth of Prusa Academy courses, a voucher for a free surprise 1 kg of Prusament with your next order, a voucher for a free set of nozzle cleaning wires, and some 3D printable models all bundled together at not extra cost. Likewise the single toolhead Original Prusa XL is also available with similar gifts for $1,999. If you’re looking to stock up on some filament, there is also a 25% discount on most Prusament.
Bambu Lab’ Black Friday sale has some solid deals, though the stated discounts are not always as good as they appear, referencing older prices rather than the typical price. Running to December 5, you can pick up the A1 Mini or A1 for $199 and $279, but the better saving comes with the combo versions that come bundled with the AMS lite, $329 and $379. The P1S is available for $399 at a 43% discount (a price we suspect to stick around now the P2S exists) and is also available for $619 with the AMS 2 Pro. That’s a new low. Meanwhile Bambu Lab’s dual-extrusion flagship H2D is available for $1749 or $1999 in combo with AMS 2 Pro.
Bambu Lab is also running a bulk sale on filament, giving you 25% off if you buy 4 rolls or more, 30% off if you buy 6 or more and so on all the way up to 45% off if you buy 18 rolls. Flash sales every week make it worth checking back every now and then, with up to 60% off some items. Right now, the company’s Bambu Cool Plate SuperTack is half off, for example.
Creality is also getting in on the action with some deals of their own. Creality’s CFS-compatible 2025 iteration of the K1C is available for $369, while the new K2 Pro is available at $50 off its introductory pricing. This Black Friday you can get the standalone K2 Pro printer for $799, or as a combo with the Creality CFS for $999. As with Bambu Lab, Creality has a regularly rotating roster of flash deals. Black Friday is often a time for companies to clear out old stock, which may be the case with the Falcon2 22W laser engraver & cutter, available for $499, more than half off from the claimed usual price tag of $1199. The 5W Laser Falcon engraver is also half off at $139.99.
Elegoo is particularly guilty of misleading anchor pricing in these sales. The Centauri Carbon can be picked up for $279.99 instead of the usual $300 it has sat at since launch – though Elegoo would have you believe it’s actually discounted from $413 if you take the store page at face value. Still, $30 off an already absurdly inexpensive printer is a good deal. Elegoo’s top resin printers see a discount, too. The Saturn 4 Ultra 16K is available for $419.99, down from its usual price at around ~$500.
Anycubic has some Black Friday savings on their printers and filaments as well. The Kobra S1 Combo drops down to a new low of $459, while the Kobra 3 V2 Combo is on sale for $329. On the photopolymeric side of Anycubic’s hardware, one of our favorite resin 3D printers, the large volume Photon Mono M7 Max, has dropped down to $599 – matching its Prime Day pricing from last month. And like with all the sales mentioned above, Anycubic has savings on resin and filament bundles as well.
Snapmaker’s headline-grabbing U1 is still available at its pre-order pricing of $849, but the company’s modular Snapmaker 2.0 A350T is $500 off at $849. The 2.0 may be approaching the end of life, but Snapmaker assures us it will continue to stock parts and support owners. Meanwhile, the larger, more powerful Artisan 3-in-1 3D printer is nearly $1,000 off at $1,949.
If you’re looking to pick up accessories, particularly for your Bambu Lab 3D printer, Biqu’s Pandaverse of add-ons and mods is widely discounted, in addition to Black Friday savings on build plates and filaments.
Other highlights for us include Revopoint, whose Black Friday sale encompasses the company’s recent launches, including the Inspire 2 on sale for $390 and MetroY for $1121. Likewise Flsun revisits its bonkers Prime Day pricing for its high-speed delta 3D printers this Black Friday, including the S1, down to $399, and the S1 Pro and T1 Max each available at $599.
