Will Wright’s take

Based on the specs and price

Wait and see

“Formlabs quality at a hobby price, if it lives up to it.”

Getting Formlabs' print engine and software for $699 is a big deal for resin hobbyists. It isn't shipping yet and the wash and cure station is extra. If early reviews are good, this could be the resin printer to get.
