ELEGOO Mercury Plus 2.0 Wash and Cure Station, Upgraded 2 in 1 Design Washing UV Resin Curing Machine with Washing Container and Busket for LCD/DLP/SLA Mars Photon S Photon Mono 3D Printed Models

When they work, theyre great, maybe I just got bad units. The washing station has magnets in the base that rotate, but the connection to the motor came loose and the screw no longer can be tightened enough to stop the magnets from separating and grinding up against the plastic. Even with glue, Ive had to open the base multiple times to fix this problem and as far as I can see, its a flaw in the design. The curing station has a different problem, whatever sensor detects the cover being placed on the unit is faulty or just a bad design as well. Sometimes it works, other times I have to jam something between the cover and the wall to make the connection tighter to trigger the unit to work instead of beeping errors at me incessantly. Overall, these two machines have disappointed me quite a bit. Elegoo makes great printers, but these machines need to be designed better, especially for the price. My advice is to buy something else. I wish I could return mine.

Wash station died after about a month - tried working with customer service with no luck. Spent the next few months manually scrubbing and using the cure station since at least that worked.. until it didn’t. Turned it on, it flashed and then went dead. Guessing it blew something on the board but after fighting with the wash station for as long as I did it isn’t worth the hassle. It’s $150 for effectively two motors and some UV lamps - I expect those motors and lamps to work for at least a year before BOTH dying. Gonna try a competitor’s version and see if it has a bit more longevity.

**ATTENTION** I have seen multiple reviews as well as Reddit posts saying the cure station doesn’t work when the lid is on. I found out that the reason why is that these clowns removed the sticker that literally says “Do not remove”. The sticker is required to tell the machine that the lid is on. If you remove it, your cure station will not work. Honestly I do wish they maybe would’ve just painted that square or something like that since the sticker looks a little clunky, but honestly it’s not too bad. This is exactly what I was looking for. I returned my Mercury Plus for the X, & I am VERY satisfied. I was having issues with anything large even from the Mars 2 pro not even fitting in the Mercury plus, but I do NOT see that issue arising with the Mercury X

As described.

So I bought the “bundler bucket” which is the wash bucket from the mercury x. Comes in nice retail package but there needs to be a foam insert or the metal cage insert inside the bucket because the sides of the bucket are caved in. With some cut foam and a heat gun I warmed up the outside of the bucket and inserted the foam it helped to fix the caved in sides of the bucket.

Purchases this to go along with Elgoo 3d printer. Very well made and easy to use. Cannot say enough positive comments. A must have to clean and cure prints without making a mess and get complete curing.

Spent 10 months begging for customer support. Went through six elegoo representatives before being shipped a replacement wheels for wash machine and it took another month to recieve in mail. Took an hour to replace the two wheels and discovered the problem to still exist. The motor and wheels grind on eachother and machine is totally inoperable. Extremely frustrating! Bought an anycubic wash to replace this and works perfect. Shame on you for terrible support elegoo.

Great product.

Baught this for final rinse.

It works as intended.
