Pros & Cons
Creality Falcon2 22W
What we like
- Large 400×415mm work area
- Fast 25,000 mm/min rated speed
- Integrated, LightBurn-adjustable air assist
- Solid all-aluminum-alloy open frame
- Offline TF-card operation without a computer
Watch out for
- Open frame — no built-in enclosure (hood sold separately)
- No WiFi or camera
- Manual focus only
- Optional safety hood reportedly makes accessing the TF card slot awkward
LaserPecker LP1 Pro
What we like
- Very low $299 entry price
- Extremely compact and foldable — 600g, fits in a bag or drawer
- Simple app-based workflow, good for total beginners and kids' projects (with supervision)
- 10,000+ hour rated laser lifespan
- Optional auto-focus stand accessory removes manual focusing
Watch out for
- Very slow 20mm/s (1,200mm/min) engraving speed — the slowest machine in the current lineup
- Extremely low 0.5W power — engraving only, cannot cut anything
- No enclosure included — amber safety shield sold separately
- Bluetooth only, no WiFi
- Now superseded in speed and workflow by the newer LP1 Plus at a similar price
