So here’s basically the bottom line:
Based on my generally positive experience with the FE20 so far, I’m inclined to say I would recommend it to a friend who wants a cheap and simple laser engraver with a large working area and enough power to cut through soft and thin materials. But then, this is my first ever CNC laser and I didn’t pay for it – it was sent to me by Fokoos. So I don’t feel that I am in a good place to steer you in either direction. Instead, my goal is simply share my experience so far, and to give you enough information to make your own educated decision.
I also have four REALLY IMPORTANT pieces of information that you really need to know if you’re just getting started with laser engravers.
