Anker produces a vast array of technology gadgets and has earned its reputation as a trusted brand. Their 3D printers have been making a mark on the industry for several reasons, foremost among which is the quality of both the machine and the prints it produces. While the website appears polished, and the machine impresses upon arrival, its open-frame construction makes the design seem a bit dated. However, closer inspection reveals that Anker has taken a unique approach: no screen, no tangible controls; everything is managed wirelessly.
