xTool S1 Enclosed Laser Engraver & Cutter 20W Deluxe Bundle, Auto Focus

Brilliant laser engraver I have had several lasers before but not an enclosed one. The safety features are very good. Trying different materials this week have been relatively easy to do using the software that xtool provides. Luckily I purchased it during the Black Friday sale so saved money. I would definitely recommend the S1 20w laser by Xtool.

I used a Cricut for many years. But decided to upgrade to a laser cutter and I've not looked back. It's well made, looks great and does what it says. The accessories are handy and the support online has been excellent. This quality is what makes great businesses. The software support continues to be updated; there's some learning curve, but there are very few failed cuts, and that's always been down to material variability, then anything else.

Bought this on a so called Amazon Prime day, but found out it was cheaper the week before. When I complained to Amazon they offered me the difference so can't complain. The X Tool laser itself is very good although there isn't much in the way of a user manual to get you started. Luckily there a lot of YouTube videos that will help. Have started to get the hang of it and I'm now cutting & engraving all sorts. Would say its the most expensive gadget I have ever bought but to me its worth it. One thing you really must do though is drill a vent for the 80mm extraction hose as the smoke produced from cutting wood can and will set off smoke detectors

Needs cleaning very frequent software very hard to use better with Lightburn

This is a load of rubbish I work with lasers have done for years and no way this could cut wood that clean that thick stop lying to people.. its not something you would want around your little child like in some of your adverts the toxic smoke it produces still leaks out... prove me wrong.... It will only engrave metal with a special coating sprayed on but I am sure this would not work with this.... it will 100% not cut metal at all do not let this company take you for a ride if you want a laser go for a Co2 laser not this

I sent the item back as I could not get the base to connect. Very disappointed.

After reviewing options available I chose the Xtool S1 20w as my choice. I am very happy I did! The machine was straightforward to setup and the XCS software is very intuitive, making using the machine instantly productive and very rewarding. There are a myriad of options, designs and projects available and to get started, Xtool have provided excellent examples with step-by-step instructions. Overall, I have been blown away and had many favourable comments on what has been produced. I am still exploring the machine capabilities and will be progressing from cutting and scoring to engraving. Every day is an exploring day with this machine.

Excellent all round. High quality materials. Well packaged. Software updated.
