VEVOR 55W Desktop CO2 review

A desktop CO2 laser with a 55 W tube and a 20 × 12 inch work area, shipped with a 5 MP camera, a water pump and a rotary axis.

A loaded kit

VEVOR includes what others sell separately: a 5 MP camera, a rotary axis and a pump. On paper it beats the K40+ for equipment.

The risk

With a single rating at our reading, this listing proves nothing yet. Check the return terms before you order a 120 lb machine.

Using it

The bullet recommends a limit on cutting thickness. As with any CO2 machine, expect to manage cooling and exhaust yourself.

Where it earns its place, and where it falls short

Strengths

  • Camera, pump and rotary in the box
  • LightBurn and RDWorks support
  • A 20 × 12 in bed, larger than the K40+

Compromises

  • One rating at our reading: no real track record
  • Sold by a third-party seller
  • A water pump is less precise than a chiller

Our score

7.5/ 10

At about $2,260, it sits near the xTool P2S with almost no buyer record. That is the risk to weigh.
