    What these printers print

    Each model's filament guide: what prints out of the box and the cheapest reels for it.

    Accessories for your printer

    Build plates, dryers, hotends and more, ranked against their own price history.

    How to choose a 3D printer

    Start with what you want to print. PLA and PETG print on almost anything; some materials need an enclosure, a hotter hotend or a hardened nozzle. The "Prints" filter checks each printer's specs against the material, the same way the filament guides do.

    A multi-colour unit feeds several spools into one print. A combo listing includes it; otherwise check the printer works with one before you buy it separately.

    Prices are checked against our own price history, so a deal only counts when the price is genuinely lower than usual, not just lower than a list price.

    Common questions

    What does a combo printer include?

    A combo comes with the printer's multi-colour unit (an AMS, CFS, ACE or similar), so it can print in several colours or swap materials without buying the unit separately. Use the "Multi-colour unit included" filter to see only those.

    Do I need an enclosed printer?

    Only for materials that warp and split in a draught: ABS, ABS-CF, ASA, Nylon and PC. PLA, PETG and TPU print well on an open-frame printer. Filter by what a printer prints to see which can.

    Which printers can print carbon fibre filament?

    PLA Glow, PLA-CF, PETG-CF and ABS-CF are abrasive and wear out brass and stainless nozzles, so choose a printer with a hardened nozzle as standard, or plan to fit one. The "Prints" filter only counts a printer that handles it as it comes.

    How are the printer deals checked?

    Prices are checked against our own price history, so a deal only counts when the price is genuinely lower than usual, not just lower than a list price. Each model's capabilities come from the maker's published specs, checked before they're shown.

    How SpoolDeal checks prices

    The same rules on every page, so a deal badge means the same thing everywhere.

    1. Re-checked through the day

      Every tracked listing on Amazon UK and Eryone UK is re-checked through the day, and the most-watched ones every two hours.

    2. Measured against our own history

      A deal only counts when the price is below what that reel has actually sold for over the last 90 days, not a seller's “was” price.

    3. An email when it drops

      Set a target price on any reel with a free account and we email you when it gets there.

    Waiting for a better price?

    Open any reel and set the price you want to pay. We check it through the day and email you when it gets there. Free, and you can switch it off any time.
