If you've never used a 3D printer before, the Creality Hi is a great place to start. When our 3D printing expert took this one out for testing, he called it a "high-quality entry-level 3D printer that packs in features and quality well above its price point."

Creality Hi Combo deal for multi-color 3D printing

Considering the low cost compared to higher-end machines, the Creality Hi delivers incredible results.

In his Creality Hi review, Alastair found it easy to set up and get started, and noted that "the quality of the prints, from single to multifilament, was impressive, with good resolution and quality throughout."

He also said "when I printed the robot turtle, a relatively complex print for multicolour printers and one that even some of the more expensive printers can struggle with, especially when it comes to cleanliness, here the Hi actually produced one of the best-looking robot turtles that any printer I've seen produced."

Overall, his tests led him to find the price, the quality and the build were all exceptional. So, definitely one I recommend checking out in Amazon's early Black Friday sale.
