"Another vote for sunlu abs. I’ve gone through quite a bit of it."
"I ONLY use Sunlu ABS, after trying 5 different kinds of resins I realized that it was the best to use on relation to price/performance."
"Sunlu standard and ABS are amazing and cheap resins."
"I can recommend sunlu abs like, it’s cheap, durable and has a nice quality."

Elegoo
4.5
(23)
"Is the only answer."
"Is the pinnacle if you ask me, its perfect."
"Keeps tiny details looking great on WH models and is very freakin sturdy."
"I use “ELEGOO Upgraded 8K Standard Photopolymer 3D Printer Resin 405nm UV-Curing Resin."
"I've recently switched to the plant based tough resin from Elegoo. Hardly any smell and easy cleanup."
"I've been using the elegoo abs 3+ and love the results so far."
"I've used Elegoo and Sunlu ABS-like, and I love both for minis."
"It can withstand being dropped and it can print nice detail."

Anycubic
4.2
(16)
"The level of detail is fantastic. Better than Elegoo's ABS like resin."
"Anycubic Standard Grey, Anycubic Tough Clear, Anycubic Tough, ELEGOO ABS-Like 3D Printer Resin 3.0."
"It works perfectly fine. I mainly print and collect 15 mm (1/100) scale figures and I'm getting beautiful face details."
"I use Anycubic ABS-Like Resin V2 in Gray."
"I like AnyCubic's ABS like."
"I like it but one thing I have found is that you can't leave the print sitting on the build plate."
"Some friends print with Anycubic standard V2 and Siraya Tech simple water washable resin respectively and they’ve both come out looking fantastic."
"I can recommend anycubic tough 2.0 - it has little smell, not too problematic to dial in."
"Anycubic UltraTough has some flex so it won't break when assembling things."
"I use Anycubic ABS like water washable resin and it has been pretty great!"
