It’s not quite 3D, but it’s close.
Tom’s Hardware Verdict
The EufyMake E1 is the latest piece of industrial high-tech to trickle down to the consumer market, with a hefty cost in ink and AI microtransactions. While it could be a new “must have” tool for makers, the current software still needs refinement.

The EufyMake E1 UV printer is not quite a 3D printer, but it’s close enough to raise interest from the crafty side of 3D printing. Imagine if a 2D photo printer had a baby with a resin 3D printer, and you might get an idea of the possibilities.
Like a paper printer, the E1 needs a surface to print on. Unlike a paper printer, that surface can be nearly anything that fits inside the chamber: paper, wood, metal, acrylic, most plastic, leather, or fabric.
Note: Fabrics require a special flexible ink that I didn’t get to test. It can also print on a special sticker material that will let you apply prints to items too large or odd-shaped to fit into the machine.
