Hardware quality is solid for the price, but it’s Class 4—plan for enclosure, exhaust, and proper goggles.
Plugged in via USB, recognized right away. Material test grid dialed in quickly. No Wi-Fi is a non-issue for me.
Spec sheets conflict on bed size and some steps are glossed over. Once set up, performance is excellent.
Included pump makes a big difference on multi-pass cuts. Birch ply edges are much less charred.
Had a question about replacement lenses and waited over a week for a reply. Community forums helped faster.
Manual focus and simple jigs get me precise alignment. Would love autofocus, but not a dealbreaker at this price.
The Gweike G1 10W delivers impressive speed and precision for its price point, making it a strong contender for experienced users on a budget. However, its Class 4 laser designation and reports of poor customer support mean it is not recommended for beginners or those who value a seamless, well-supported user experience.
