Creality Ender-3 VE SE 3D Printer.
I still have a lot of affection for the Creality Ender-3 V3 SE because it made 3D printing easier at a budget price with partial assembly and auto bed leveling. Even today I keep coming back to it for TPU and flexible filaments since the open frame handles heat well and it’s been reliable for me. You give up modern conveniences like Wi‑Fi, higher speeds, and automated calibration, but it’s still a strong under-$200 option when it’s on sale.
Pros
- +Beginner-friendly setup with clear instructions and partial assembly
- +Automatic bed leveling
- +Great for TPU and flexible filaments thanks to open-frame heat handling
- +Often available under $200 (and even less refurbished)
Cons
- -No built-in Wi‑Fi (SD card or external controller needed)
- -Slower than modern printers (250 mm/s max tool head speed)
- -Smaller bed, no camera, and no error detection
- -Requires more manual calibration and tuning for best quality
