There's a big sale on Creality 3D printers over at Amazon right now, including the beginner-friendly Ender 3 V3 SE and the mid-range K2 Pro that just hits the sweet spot for most enthusiasts. We've put many of the Creality range through our workshop testing, but these are the 4 I recommend across a range of budgets.
For beginners, check out the Creality Ender 3 V3 SE for $187 (was $219). If you're a hobbyist on a budget, the excellent Creality K1C has dropped to $399 (was $499).
For an exceptional mid-range pick, the Creality K2 Pro is now $649 (was $849). And finally, the Creality K2 Plus Combo for $1199 (was $1529) is an easy recommendation for larger 3D printing. Below, you'll also find UK prices, with all but K2 Plus discounted at Amazon.co.uk.
July 23. I've re-checked prices, stock, and added both US and UK-specific pricing in each block.

Creality Ender 3 V3 SE
Why we recommend it
We scored the Creality Ender 3 V3 SE 4.5 stars in our review, with a Highly Recommended award - it's a great 3D printer for beginners at a price that's very accessible. It's almost as cheap as it was over Black Friday, where it sold for $174.
The catch? With its open-frame design, it's not as fast as others and it lacks features like a built-in camera and touchscreen.
Creality K1C
Why we recommend it
The Creality K1C is our 3D printing expert's favorite machine - it's not an ultra high-end unit, but during our tests it performed brilliantly for a relatively budget machine, suitable for just about everyone. The cheapest I've seen this on Amazon is $369, so while not the lowest ever price, it's still a good deal for what you get here.
The catch? It's not the most accurate 3D printer in this price bracket, but it still beats most rivals if you want the complete package.
Creality K2 Pro
Why we recommend it
An unofficial upgrade on the K1C, we called the Creality K2 Pro "an exceptionally good 3D printer" capable of producing some of the best prints in its price bracket in our review, where it scored 4.5 stars and a Highly Recommended award. This is an all-time low price on Amazon, making it unmissable.
The catch? While it supports multi-color 3D printing, it was slow during our workshop testing.
Creality K2 Plus
Why we recommend it
With a build volume of 350 x 350 x 350mm, the Creality K2 Plus is the one to go for if you want to print larger pieces - in our 4.5-star review, we praised the build quality, features, versatile material support that "ultimately produces outstanding prints." This isn't the cheapest I've seen it on sale, as back in June it hit $1099 - so you might want to wait to save a little more.
The catch? Due to the build volume, this 3D printer has a large footprint that won't be suitable for a lot of spaces.
