Elegoo
Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra review
12K resolution and tilt-release peeling for fast, detailed miniatures. The detail ceiling FDM can't reach — at the cost of gloves, IPA and curing.
Best for: Tabletop miniatures, jewellery and highly detailed models.
What we like
- Extraordinary surface detail
- Fast tilting peel mechanism
- Built-in air purifier
What we don't
- Messy, smelly workflow
- Resin needs careful handling and ventilation
- Post-processing wash and cure required

Specifications are the manufacturer's published figures. "Max speed" is a headline number no printer sustains across a whole part — treat it as a ceiling, not a throughput estimate.
