VEVOR 80W 20 × 28 in review

A floor-standing 80 W CO2 laser with a 20 × 28 inch bed and 2-way pass-through, for shops that have 282 pounds of floor space to spare.

Value on paper

Eighty watts and a 20 × 28 inch bed for a fraction of the xTool P3. For a shop with someone technical, that matters.

The record

A score of 2.8 from six ratings is too thin to judge but gives no comfort. Plan for setup and support on your own.

Installation

This needs a route for exhaust, a cooling plan and a firm floor.

Our score

7.2/ 10

A lot of machine for the price, but its small and weak buyer record is a warning.
