Anycubic Kobra 3 V2
Out of stock at Anycubic USAnycubic's store lists the bare printer as sold out and sells the combo only with an EU plug, so there is no new US unit to order as of October 2026.
Anycubic's volume seller pairs a 255 × 255 × 260 mm open-frame bed-slinger with the ACE Pro, a four-spool changer that is unusual in this class for actively drying filament as it feeds — a heated, sealed box rather than a passive spool holder. That matters more than it sounds: damp PETG and nylon are the most common cause of a multi-colour print failing eight hours in, and most changers at this price do nothing about it. The rest is conventional, competent Klipper: strain-gauge levelling, 300 °C hotend, camera, 600 mm/s claimed. Anycubic's store now lists the bare printer as sold out and sells the combo only with an EU plug, so there is no new US unit to order. What it lacks is an enclosure and a hardened nozzle, so the materials list stops well short of what the ACE Pro's drying would otherwise enable.

Not published
Anycubic does not publish a volumetric flow rate for the Kobra 3 V2, so its 600 mm/s claim cannot be checked against what the hotend can actually melt. We do not estimate one.
Best forCheap four-colour printing where damp filament has been the thing ruining long prints.

- 255 × 255 × 260 mm build volume
- Klipper firmware with strain-gauge levelling
- Built-in camera with time-lapse
- 600 mm/s claimed at 20,000 mm/s²
What it does well
- ACE Pro dries filament in the unit, which addresses the commonest cause of failed multi-colour prints
- 110 °C bed, hotter than the 100 °C most bed-slingers here stop at
- Slightly larger bed than the 250 mm and 220 mm machines it competes with
- Camera and Klipper included at a price where both are often missing
Where it gives ground
- No enclosure, so the drying capability cannot be spent on ABS or nylon
- Stock nozzle is not hardened
- No published flow rate behind the 600 mm/s claim
- Anycubic lists the bare printer as sold out and sells the combo only with an EU plug
