Best 3D printers under €230

Updated 13 October 2026 · Live prices updated daily

Ranked off live Amazon.nl prices and the hardware spec sheet. I reward CoreXY motion, active-heated chambers, modern auto-levelling, genuinely-fast volumetric flow, and real build volume. Higher is better. Cheaper breaks ties. FDM only on this list - resin workflows are a different conversation.

Matt's take on this budget

Under €230 is where the hobby actually starts, not where it stops - the market has moved enough in five years that a €230 machine today prints better out of the box than a €580 one in 2020. The compromises at this price are real: older motion systems, thinner frames, manual or basic auto-levelling, PLA and PETG only. If you're testing whether you'll stick with 3D printing, this is the right place to start. If you already know you want to print functional parts in engineering materials, save up.

Frequently asked

Is a 3D printer under €230 actually worth buying? +

For learning the hobby, yes. Modern sub-€230 machines come with auto-levelling and PEI-coated beds - a noticeably better starting experience than a €580 Ender 3 in 2020. Just accept the ceiling: PLA and PETG only, small build volumes, and limited customer support.

What materials can I print at this budget? +

PLA reliably, PETG with some tuning, TPU only if the extruder is direct-drive. ABS, ASA and nylon need an enclosure and 280 °C+ hot end - not happening at €230.

Is auto-levelling included under €230 now? +

On most current models, yes - usually a BLTouch-style probe or a strain-gauge version. Manual-level-only printers at this price are a red flag in 2026; skip them.

Ranking is driven by the hardware spec sheet plus live price. It doesn't capture firmware quality, customer support or long-term reliability - so treat this as a starting shortlist, not a final answer. Every listed printer has its own page with the full spec table, a head-to-head picker, and candid pros/cons.
