Pros & Cons
Creality Falcon2 Pro 40W
What we like
- Includes a bonus 1.6W fine-detail laser module (not bundled with the 22W)
- 600mm/s CoreXY speed with enclosed camera positioning
- Deep cutting power at 40W inside a Class 1 enclosure
- Air assist and multi-point safety monitoring standard
Watch out for
- No autofocus — manual leveling despite Pro branding
- No WiFi
- Pricier than the 22W tier for buyers who don't need the extra power
Creality Falcon2 Pro S 22W
What we like
- Genuine one-click Z-axis autofocus — real time savings over manual leveling
- Enclosed Class 1 design with camera and air assist standard
- Cuts 15mm basswood or 10mm black acrylic in a single pass
Watch out for
- Smaller 355×390mm work area than the cheaper base Pro 22W (400×415mm)
- Not compatible with the 1.6W fine-detail bonus module
- At least one reviewer notes the autofocus isn't fully hands-off in practice
