The Memorial Day sales have brought some steep discounts to 3D printers from all the main players, like Bambu Lab, Anycubic, Creality, and Elegoo. While Amazon has a few notable deals on right now, the best discounts for beginners and professionals seem to be direct from the manufacturer.
Now, for my money, Elegoo's Centauri Carbon 2 Combo for

The Centuari Carbon 2 is one of the best 3D printers we've reviewed. It's a multifilament model so you can print in multiple colors, which we found "exceptionally good." It's one of the cheapest and most reliable multifilament 3D printers you can get.
I absolutely love the Creality Hi 3D printer, which we called a "high-quality entry-level 3D printer that packs in features and quality well above its price point" after testing. It's fast, reliable, and results are impressive.
If you're just starting out 3D printing models and miniatures, this is an exceptional deal. The Photon Mono 4 is a 10K resin machine for finely-detailed prints you can then paint yourself. For the price, you can't go wrong here if you're looking for an entry-level 3D printer.
Easily one of the best machines around right now, the S1 Kobra is a fast machine capable of hitting speeds up to 600mm/s. Scoring 4.5 stars, we found it delivered precision that's hard to beat at an outstanding price.

The Bambu Lab A1 is a great first 3D printer for beginners. This incredible entry-level machine scored the full 5 stars in our review, where we said: "Boasting exceptional build quality and advanced features, it strikes a perfect balance, catering to a wide range of users from beginners to professionals."

With a broad 300×300×300mm build volume and speeds up to 600 mm/s, the K2 Pro is a great upgrade machine for hobbyists and small business owners. I love that it's packed with features, including 16-color multi-material printing, auto-levelling, and dual AI cameras.
There are several variants of the H2D, but I've selected the full laser combo because this 4-in-1 machine is our undisputed top pick overall. If you're looking for a laser cutter, engraver, and 3D printer all in one, this is our number one choice. It has a build volume of 350x 320x 325mm.
The Centuari Carbon is one of the highest-scoring 3D printers we've tested - and for single-filament printing, it's an excellent machine. It boasts a 256×256 256mm build volume, full-auto calibration, and we found "it more than impresses with build quality, speed, and accuracy."

The S1 Max is a large-format, multi-color 3D printer with an impressive Memorial Day discount. The fully-enclosed Core XY unit features a 350×350×350mm print area, perfect for larger builds. We absolutely loved the smaller S1 Combo, which proved outstanding for the price. Expect more - and bigger - here.
Still one of the best 3D printers for beginners, the Creality Ender-3 V3 SE (yes, the name is a mouthful) is an entry-level unit that performed well in tests. It's affordable and reliable, and a superb place for starting out.
