Anycubic

"I've probably used about 20 bottles in the last 4 months alone. Never going back to Sirayatech or Elegoo's ABS like."

"I've been using a Anycubic and love the Saturn now."
"I've had a lot of success with Sunlu standard resin."
"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."
"I used a lot of anycubic abs resin, because I got it cheap and mixed siraya tech tenacious in it."
