Kobra Go

Anycubic has built a reputation for quality 3D printers at reasonable prices, but the market is a busy one, and finding a way to compete is an ongoing challenge.

With the Kobra Go, it looks like Anycubic is tackling the lower end of this market but offering some features that feel a cut above what you'd usually consider a budget option.

The Kobra Go feels like a quality machine, constructed from nice materials. It's sturdy and rugged but with less of an industrial feel than some of its competitors. What surprises there is that the Kobra Go is a DIY device. There's a certain amount of assembly involved. Not huge amounts and the process can be completed in 20 minutes or so, but enough to give a good level of familiarity with how the Kobra works and is put together.
