Create the Future: Elegoo Celebrates 10 Years and Prepares New Offerings for Global 3D Printing Community
Elegoo, a rapidly developing brand in global smart manufacturing, is celebrating its 10th anniversary with the theme 'Thrive, Empower, Next'. This milestone moment is packed with exciting events, sneak peeks at upcoming products, and a heartfelt thank-you to the incredible community that has been part of its journey. Thrive: a decade of thriving innovation Since its founding in 2015, Elegoo set out with a clear mission: to provide unique and smart creative spaces for everyone. What began with the introduction of Arduino STEM kits quickly evolved as the brand relentlessly pushed forward, expanding its reach into the world of 3D printing. This journey led to the creation of the groundbreaking Centauri Carbon, a product that has made waves and cemented its place as a game-changer in the industry. Most recently, Centauri Carbon won the iF DESIGN AWARD 2025, highlighting its innovation and design excellence. Today, Elegoo has established itself as a trusted name, with millions of products sold across more than 90 countries and regions, earning a global fanbase for its reliability, exceptional performance, and commitment to continuous improvement. To further engage and support its growing community, Elegoo has also launched a worldwide brand ambassador program, uniting passionate creators to inspire and empower fellow makers. Empower: empowering creators and makers worldwide Starting March 16, Elegoo will launch My ELEGOOD Moment, a community-driven initiative inviting users to share their most memorable experiences with Elegoo. Whether it's an inspiring project, a game-changing 3D print, or a story of how Elegoo made life better, these moments will be highlighted across social media. Users whose stories are featured will have a chance to win flagship printers like the Centauri Carbon and Saturn 4 Ultra 16K, along with other exclusive rewards. Additionally, a community-focused design contest is coming soon, with full details to be announced in the coming weeks. Next: together, on the journey to the next chapter At RAPID + TCT this April, Elegoo will debut its latest 3D printer, Jupiter 2, alongside the Centauri Carbon and other new offerings. And this is just the beginning; more exciting products and events are set to launch later this year. As Elegoo enters its next decade, it remains committed to driving innovation, empowering its global community, and exploring the future of 3D printing. 'When we started, we had a bold vision - to create the future with smart manufacturing. What began as an idea has transformed into a thriving company, empowering creators and enhancing personalized experiences for countless individuals,' says Chris Hong, Founder and CEO of Elegoo. 'The 3D printing industry is evolving faster than ever, and we believe that continuously improving our products based on community feedback reflects the attitude a company should have toward innovation.

I've Spent Some Time With Elegoo's New 3D Printer and It's Pretty Great for $300
Just a few years ago, 3D printing changed significantly. A new brand emerged from Kickstarter, redefining what's possible in the consumer market by introducing enclosed 3D printers that deliver high-quality models at unprecedented speeds. Since then, every company has tried to react to the change, but it's taken a while. Now, though, companies are starting to release CoreXY machines to compete with the Bambu Lab behemoth, and Elegoo's Centauri Carbon is a great example of this new wave. The Centauri is aimed squarely at the beginner to mid-range market that the P1S and P1P from Bambu Lab currently occupy. As a direct rival to the P1S -- one of my top picks for 3D printers -- it comes at a lower price and, surprisingly, with very few concessions. I've spent some time with it, and at its current $399 price tag, I'd say it's one to watch. The first thing I noticed when I unboxed the Centauri was the glass door and lid. Elegoo could have easily saved a few dollars there and made them out of plastic. It would have been fine, but the weight of the glass and the acoustic dampening it produces is a welcome upgrade. That ethos is prevalent throughout the Centauri, too; it doesn't feel cheap. It feels well engineered and designed to be a workhorse, not a machine to throw away after a year. When you directly compare the P1S and the Centauri, you can see the specs are similar in speed, build area and general accessories. The Centauri even outperforms the P1S in some areas, such as its more user-friendly LCD display. Its interior layout, including a filament waste chute, hints at a possible future multi-color system similar to the AMS. If that happens, I hope it remains compatible with this model -- having to buy an entirely new printer just to access the color system would be a tough sell. When it comes to the overall quality of the prints, the Centauri Carbon performed admirably. The CNET test print that I use to test all of the printers that come through my workshop showed very little defects, though there was some stringing on the print, indicating it was a little too hot, and the 0.2mm tolerance test was stuck tight. Most of the issues could be fixed within the software, so it's not too big of a deal. I used the Centauri to print a large number of fun little flexi dinosaurs and fidget toys for my daughter's first-grade class. No matter how many I printed or what material I used, each one came out looking great. And all the kids loved them, which is the most important thing. I tested the hardened nozzle with PLA, PETG, TPU and even glow-in-the-dark filament, and the Centauri printed them all smoothly. I've enjoyed my time with the Centauri Carbon, and once I've finished the full testing, I have a feeling it'll be a strong contender for a place on my best lists. Right now, it's available to preorder at the Elegoo website for $300 (£300 GBP). If you're looking for a first-time printer, this is an excellent pick.
