Hello 
Hope you doing well, My name is Lee and I’m from Vietnam
Previously, I have used some of the printers such as Kingroon K3PS Pro, Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo, Bambu Lab A1 combo ( what a great printer) and now..Its a new printer from Elegoo Printer which is Elegoo Centauri Carbon.
So what is the reason for me to switch from the Bambu lab A1 to Elegoo when the Bambu lab is a really impressive printer .. The reason is I don’t want to print the multicolor projects so the AMS lite is quite a reductant to me.. and the second reason is may need to print some abs parts for my new RC car project.. I so decided to change the printer.
My first impression to the Elegoo Centauri Carbon is quite decent from the appearance, printing quality, the noise and also the 3d slicer software.
1. Appearance
The Elegoo Centauri Carbon is a fully enclosed 3D printer, which gives it a big advantage over most open-frame printers in the same price range.
Thanks to the enclosed design, it keeps the temperature stable inside the chamber — meaning you can print materials like ABS, ASA, or even PC-based filaments that usually warp or crack on cheaper open printers. That is the reason why I changed my printer.
2. Printing quality
When it comes to print quality, the Centauri Carbon actually delivers pretty impressive results straight out of the box. You can see some print sample I’ve tested when set up this machine.
The first few prints I did came out clean, with sharp details and very minimal stringing.
The CoreXZ motion system makes a noticeable difference too — it feels smoother and more stable compared to the typical Cartesian setup you see on most printers at this price.
Layer consistency is great, even at higher speeds, and the textured PEI plate gives good adhesion while still making it easy to pop the parts off once they cool down. The bed has 2 side ( Side A is for smooth surface while side B is for general print )
Overall, for a printer in this price range, the print quality really surprised me — it’s easily on par with machines that cost a lot more.
3. The noise
In terms of noise, the Centauri Carbon is actually pretty quiet, especially for an enclosed printer.
The enclosure itself helps block a good amount of sound, so even when it’s printing at higher speeds, it doesn’t get annoying. But the problem is when you print with the cover, the temperature inside the machine will increase and the alert will pop up on the touch panel. Some time I feel a little bit annoying with this problem.
You can still hear the fans and the stepper motors working, but it’s more of a low hum rather than that high-pitched noise you usually get from open-frame printers.
I’d say it’s quiet enough to run in the same room without being distracting — maybe not totally silent, but definitely one of the quieter ones I’ve used in this price range.
One big problem is I don’t understand while the fans still run when the print already finished…
So you don’t want to sleep in a room with 2 printer running like me.. It is a disaster 
4. Slicer Software
If you are familiar with the Bambu lab slicer, You don’t need to learn anything to use this software.. The set up process is quite simple so just take me 2 minutes to complete..
So overall this printer is quite good in my opinion… what do you think ?
I’ve made a video on how to set up it from scratch… so if you are interested…Please kindly to check it
