Accompanying instructions suggest that assembly should be done by two individuals because of its size, however it is possible to assemble the unit by yourself in a pinch. The printer comes partially assembled and flat packed within a box, complete with some free accessories (a USB-A flash drive and a plastic scraper) and all the tools that you would require to assemble the machine. This particular model also has a striking resemblance to the Anycubic Vyper (opens in new tab), a smaller FDM printer from the same manufacturer, though it is noticeably larger. It features a heated nozzle that squeezes a melted polymer-based filament in 2D layers across a build platform that will eventually fuse together and build your model from the build plate up. Most consumer FDM printers share a familiar design as it’s easier to ship, and the Anycubic Kobra Max is no different. ![]() Comes with all required assembly equipment. ![]() As there's no requirement to slice up larger models before loading them into the printer, it could also be said that this is going to be an easier experience for people new to the hobby as it will require you to have less software knowledge and experience. Obvious gripes with its sizing aside, this is a fantastic 3D printer that's going to be an ideal purchase for cosplayers, prop makers, and anyone interested in making large capacity models that would struggle to fit on a smaller printer. Unless you want a 3D printer to become a permanent fixture of said dining table, you'll probably have to make sure that you have enough room to set up the Anycubic Kobra Max before you purchase it. ![]() In fact, the only location we found suitable to set up the printer during our testing was on the family dining table, as the base of the machine was too large to fit onto a traditional-sized desk. While the size of these machines obviously brings some advantages in regards to the capacity of the models that can be printed, they also require you to have enough space to set them up.
