The Creality Sermoon V1 Pro is a filament-based 3D printer from one of the most popular makers of consumer-level 3D printers. For the uninitiated, 3D printers build up objects layer-by-layer, melting plastic filament about the thickness of a piece of spaghetti and extruding it onto a build plate. As the layers are added to the plate, the object grows and takes form.
The company touts out-of-the-box operation and that's pretty much true.There are a wide range of 3D printer technologies, brands, and capabilities, but filament-based printers are among the most common and cost-effective. Another common 3D printer type builds up layers of resin by exposing each layer to light. Those resin printers are of a comparable cost, but are often used for making smaller models with a greater degree of detail. They're super-popular in the miniature gaming world, for example.
Printers like the Sermoon V1 Pro are capable of making small statue-like objects as well. In fact, I use some for my tests. But the real benefit of 3D printers is that, in addition to the types of objects you can download from sites like Thingiverse or Printables, you can design your own objects that solve specific problems. I'll link to a few practical 3D printing projects below to give you an example.

These devices range from a few hundred dollars well up into the thousands. The price is determined by features, speed, robustness, and size of printer, among other things. This printer is more expensive than some, but less expensive than others. It's at an interesting price point, but it's small. That said, let's look into the details.
Many people are familiar with the Ender name when it comes to Creality, a hugely popular line of open bed filament printers. TheSermoon v1 Pro I'm examining in this review can be either partially or fully enclosed, and offers a range of features that Creality hopes will justify its moderately hefty$500-plus price tag.
If you like all of the Sermoon's features, the price might be just fine. But if you don't need them, that price might seem pretty up there.
