ELEGOO Mercury Plus 2 in 1 3D Printing Wash and Cure Station V2 for Mars Photon S Photon Mono LCD SLA DLP 3D Printer Models

Its a lot better than any home made set-up. Washes the prints well and 10 mins on the rotating stand and the prints are hardened all over. Very easy to use and would definitely recommend it to anyone that 3D prints with resin printers.

The curing part of this product is absolutely fine. But the washing part does absolutely nothing. Even left a print in for 10 mins and when it came out, it was still completely shiny as if it did nothing. Don’t buy this for washing ad it does not do that whatsoever

Well worth it makes washing and curing super easy

There are so many DYI solutions for both, curing and washing stations but I did not want to mess around with any of them. Instead, I purchased this gadget and have not regretted my decision. It comes with all the tools you need to get started; all you need is some power and appropriate cleaning agent. I mainly use the curing function these days because I minimize exposure to isopropyl alcohol and usually do quick manual washes/rinses. I cant recall any negatives but I wish it would change direction during washing to increase efficiency.

I wasn’t expecting much from this machine, seeing that in the description it mentioned it was designed only for IPA. But I went ahead and bought it because one other reviewer helpfully commented that they had used it with water and it worked. That being said, after a few uses, this thing turned out to be an amazing help to my post processing. I used to have to wash my prints with the tap into a bucket that filled up far too quickly, and it would never be good enough. Now I just mount the build plate on the washing machine, set the timer, fill the bucket with water and my prints have never been so clean. Combine that with a handy little $15 hair dryer on low and my prints are now done in half the time. Such a great investment that will make me want to use my printer more. If you use water washable resin, don’t hesitate to buy this machine. It’s fantastic. The only other thing worth noting is that it is extremely loud (even louder than the infamously loud Mars 2 Pro carbon filter fan) and the button beeps are quite loud. So if you’re working in an environment where you need to be inconspicuous, then take that into consideration.

Amazing product. Easily comparable in price to making your own DIY tools that spin your alcohol and the UV curing chamber. Plus its built in 1 package, with a small foot print. Only complaint I have is the pillar with LEDs in it wobbles a bit.

So in my experience if you have one of the Elegoo printers (Mars, Mars Pro, Mars 2, Mars 2 Pro) or a printer of similar dimensions then this is the perfect all in one solution for washing and curing. This worked perfectly with 70-90% Isopropyl and works even better with 200% denatured alcohol. After a wash cycle there is no stickiness at all. I had originally planned to make my own curing station with a rotating base and a UV LED and washing station with an ultrasonic cleaner. However, I was concerned with possible fire hazards with the ultrasonic vaporizing excessive flammable vapor. I came across this device and it was perfect. It combined both washing and curing in a small affordable package and I am glad that I decided to get it. Favorite Features: 1. You can dip the entire Elegoo Mars print bed into the washing tank cleaning the print and the bed at the same time. This saves time in my workflow and I really like this feature 2. All in one work flow saves me alot of time and keeps the mess low Below are some things to know before you buy. None of the things below are big deals but I want to provide honest feedback/observations for anyone looking to get this product: 1. Extra/Replacement wash containers are not YET sold on amazon I hope in the future they will sell them so that I can get an extra one to extend the life of my washing solution. However, if you need one just contact their customer support and they will totally take care of you :) 2. The main motor that drives the spinning of the magnetic stirrer and the rotation of the plexi glass stand for stirring emits a noticeable stepper motor whine when it is moving at max speed while operating in the wash mode. Its about as loud as a normal 3D printer stepper motor making a fast move without micro stepping. This is not really that big of a deal for two reasons. One it is in my garage, and two the washing process isnt really that long so even if I was not in my garage it would not really bother me all that much. 3. Just like stated in the description this is not really designed for water washable resin. I tried it out and it kind of worked but water washable resin really needs some flowing water to get it clean. I am also new to resin printing so I will update this if I figure out how to make this more effective with water. 4. The beeping noise that is emitted when you press the buttons is kind of loud and to my knowledge cannot be shut off (Its like the same volume as a microwave). This does not really bother me though but it is just something to know.

Unboxed the wash station to discover that the attachment fir the build plate was missing. The main reason why I bought the wash station was to wash the build plate. Cant do that without the attachment. So disappointed!

I opened the box and the first thing I notice is no manual, no protective film over the acrylic cover, no protective film over the LCD display. After opening the rest I see that the bracket to hold the build plate is missing, the glass turn table has a glob of resin on it and the washing container is completely coated with dried resin. So I thought maybe I bought a refurbished model, nope nowhere on the product description does it say used, and the invoice says new. I cant trust a company that tries to sell you a used product. They didnt even clean it up or make sure all the parts were there. Absolutely terrible.

This is the best tool Ive bought for resin printing. I saves me a lot of time and does a better job of cleaning models than I ever did. Its basically a plug and play setup. The instructions are very clear and you most likely will never need them. Its that easy to use. My one knock is that the beeper, like the Elegoo printers, is a bit loud. Im sure I can deal with it though. Very well worth the money, I hope the make a larger one soon.
