Elegoo Centauri Carbon Review
Earlier this year, Elegoo shook up the 3D printing market with their Centauri Carbon—an enclosed CoreXY printer that promises premium features at half the price of competitors. After putting this budget-friendly machine through its paces for over 200 hours, I can say it delivers on that promise with impressive print quality and reliability. But like any budget option, there are a few trade-offs that potential buyers should know about before taking the plunge. In this detailed review, I’ll explore everything from setup and calibration to real-world performance with different materials.
The Centauri Carbon is a CoreXY performance bargain for most users. It delivers build volume, speed and reliability rivaling printers at twice the price if you print PLA and PETG. ASA/PC users might want to consider something else if you don’t want to deal with the extra steps required by not having a heated chamber. For budget beginners chasing premium specs, it’s unbeatable. For hobbyists prioritizing large aesthetic prints (like my 22” Cthulhu), it’s a solid workhorse.
