The Anycubic Neo is a user-friendly, affordable 3D printer that's perfect for beginners without prior experience. It arrives semi-built with only a few screws and wires needing to be connected before you're up and running. For a printer of this price, there are many standout features; these include a large build area of 220x220x250mm, the Anycubic LeviQ auto leveling, a direct extruder for more excellent material compatibility, a 2.4-inch color screen with knob control to navigate models and settings and a double-sided spring steel platform enabling easy print removal. Print quality is good, far beyond what you would expect for a printer at this price point. Surface quality, dimensional accuracy, more complex overhangs, and bridges are well handled, although you can see the printer's limits. Overall a superb first printer for enthusiasts.
