Price: Centauri 2 $279 (list $299), checked October 29, 2026

We researched ELEGOO's official pricing, terms, product pages, help pages and outside reviews. We haven't used ELEGOO ourselves, so this is a research-based review, not a hands-on test.

Who it’s best for

Hobbyists printing models, parts and props.
Miniature painters using resin printers.
Beginners who want a low-cost first printer.

Who should skip it

Probably not the best fit if you want the smoothest out-of-box multi-color system.

How it works day to day

This part draws on ELEGOO’s own product pages, help center and documentation, read October 29, 2026 (listed under Sources). We haven’t used ELEGOO ourselves.

You slice a model in software, send it to the printer, and it builds the part layer by layer; resin prints then need washing and curing.
