EufyMake E1 UV Printer: What's Actually in the Box (and Is It Worth $2,499)?
Last Updated:
The eufyMake E1 launched as the largest Kickstarter campaign in the platform's history, and it's now sold direct through mainstream printing retailers like DTG Pro rather than backers-only.
If you've seen the ads and are wondering what actually ships in the box, here's a breakdown based on the seller's own listing and independent hands-on coverage from outlets like Tom's Hardware.What's Actually in the Box
The base Ink & Cleaning Kit bundle includes the E1 printer, cables and a quick start guide, the EufyMake Studio desktop software plus the EufyMake mobile app, a full ink and cleaning cartridge set, a mini and a standard adhesive mat, a mini flatbed platform and standard flatbed tray, an air filter, three free substrates to test with, and UV protective goggles. A heat press or laminator is not included and isn't needed for direct-to-object printing, though you'll want a rotary attachment if you plan to print on cylindrical items like tumblers.
Core Specs Worth Knowing
- A3 flatbed print area, roughly 13" x 16.5"
- Up to 1440 DPI with CMYK + White + Gloss channels
- 3D-texture printing up to 5mm for raised, embossed effects
- Dual laser + camera alignment system for placement accuracy
- JetClean self-cleaning maintenance system
- Rated for 300+ printable materials, including wood, metal, acrylic, ceramic, glass, and leather
Which Bundle Should You Actually Buy?
DTG Pro sells four bundle tiers built around the same printer: Ink & Cleaning Kit ($2,499), Rotary Bundle ($2,889) for mugs and tumblers, Laminator Bundle ($2,889) for UV DTF stickers, and the Deluxe Bundle ($3,299), which includes both the rotary unit and the laminator. If you're only printing flat items like signs, ornaments, or phone cases, the base kit covers it. If tumblers or stickers are part of the plan, budget for the Rotary or Deluxe tier from the start rather than adding the accessory later.
Is It Worth $2,499?
Independent long-term reviews describe it as best suited to low-to-medium volume customization rather than high-throughput production, which lines up with how DTG Pro positions it: a desktop alternative to industrial UV flatbeds for makers, Etsy sellers, and small studios rather than a replacement for a production printer.
If you're already comparing dedicated UV and UVDTF printers for a small business, the E1 is worth putting on that shortlist specifically because of the 3D-texture feature, which most flatbed UV printers in this price range don't offer.
And if your real interest is the sticker side of the business rather than direct-to-object printing, it's worth reading how we broke down starting a UV DTF sticker business without buying a printer first before committing to the Laminator bundle.
DTG Pro currently lists the eufyMake E1 Ink & Cleaning Kit bundle at $2,499, down from $2,748.89.
