The Ender 3 V3 SE is the entry point to the V3 range, aimed at a first printer that will not need constant attention. Assembly is short and the frame is rigid, so a new owner can go from carton to first print in an evening rather than a weekend. Automatic bed levelling deals with the step most beginners struggle with, and the heated bed covers the filaments people usually start on. The touchscreen keeps the menus short and readable. Buy this one if you want the V3 platform at the smallest outlay and are content to grow into it.
Good for
- First printer for a beginner
- Student projects and coursework
