What is the best 3D Printer for its price?

This post will explore three 3D Printers that are the most accessible, basic and most importantly affordable. All of these can be purchased on Amazon.ca or even Best Buy and Staples. Lets take a look at the most affordable 3D Printing Price for you:

(1)  Maki Box – This entry-level printer is open sourced and comes mostly assembled out of the box. It was created for people who want to try their hand at 3D printing but don’t want to make a huge commitment right off the bat. Because of that it has a limited build space of 150mm x 110mm x 90mm tall. Price: $300

(2)  Phoenix 3D Printer – The Phoenix is closed-source and comes with their designed proprietary software. This allows for more built-in functions like pausing during a build and gives the user more overall control with a simpler interface. Price: $500

(3)  Deezmaker Bukito Mini – Say that 5 times fast! The mini prides itself not only on size and weight (~6 pounds) but it also prints with startling accuracy, even when being moved around during the build. It is a tad pricier than 1 and 2 but with a build size of 5 x 6 x 5 it makes for a solid case. Price: $699

All in all there have been many barriers in the consumer markets including learning curves, materials, uses and of course cost. Fortunately, with increased competition and interest 3D printers are becoming more viable for consumers. I hope this list helps to answer Which 3D Printer to Buy when primarily focusing on cost.
