Customer Reviews
I recently purchased a P2. This is my first laser and I was pretty worried it would be complicated and I'd be figuring it out for weeks.
Not so.
It's so unbelievable easy to get going.
Out of the box. Add distilled water and you're away.
I'm so happy with it.
Although creative, Ive never lasered before and went straight in with a P2. Ive recently been made redundant so thought its now or never to see if i can maybe make a little business out of my designs.
Before it arrived I thought I would be able to unpack it and get it upstairs to my studio on my own. Not a chance. Even hubby and I struggled with the added need to keep it level.
I would say that the set up could be a little easier. There's some written instructions in the box and then links to videos and QR codes and not all cover everything. When I thought I was ready to go I kept getting a warning about the axis and spent ages trying to work out what it could be.
By chance, felt under the gantry and felt some thumbscrews. I unscrewed them (as had been instructed to take out others during the set up) 2 brackets came off which were there I guess for transport purposes. I looked through all the guides etc again but I couldn't find where it told me that this was what I needed to do. Error disappeared and laser ready to go.
Feedback for xTool: Maybe review the set up instructions and make sure they are in full for all media eg: written, video, website.
I am paranoid of burning down the house as ultimately it's a piece of equipment that effectively vaporises material. However, I have the fire safety kit and another CO2 extinguisher nearby for comfort and I NEVER leave it unattended. Even after using I unplug from the mains to be sure.
Whilst the P2 does have extraction, I will be buying an line fan - especially with using acrylic. If the laser stays in the house I might have to invest in the air purifier but currently out of my budget so will see how the inline works.
I ultimately bought this to cut acrylic and paper and still trying to find the sweet spot for paper for no/minimal charring.
My head is fit to burst with ideas so I'm head first in experimental mode trying a myriad of techniques looking for that 'thing' that nobody else has done and this tool is really helping me do that.
This machine has taken my laser cutting and engraving projects to the next level!
As a proud owner of the Xtool M1 (10W) and Xtool D1 pro (20W) I just couldn't resist getting my hands on the Xtool 55W CO2 laser machine.
The cutting speed alone makes this machine worth it as it has halved the time it took me to make the same project with the Xtool M1 (still love that machine by the way!)
This machine gives me more flexibility to use different materials - I have only tried wood, acrylic plastic and rubber so far but will be trying glass tumbler soon with my RA2 Pro!
The only thing that Xtool could do better with is to provide more support for the RA2 Pro. At the moment, I can't find any parameters settings for the RA2 Pro and this machine. If they could do this, then the possibilities are really endless.
I know that if anything ever happens to my machine, I would definitely be buying another Xtool machine - there is just no competition.
First, be prepared for this as it is a big BIG box and very heavy at about 100 or so pounds.
That being said it didn't take me long to set it up if you do not rush it things will be fine.
I was coming from the S1 which is a good machine but now this P2 is better. My first engraving was on one of the materials they sent. I used the same power settings that I would have used on the S1, to hight but the engraving look brilliant. I was surprised.
Glass was the next one. As glass is a clear material I had the find a way for the system to measure it correctly. I watched a video of a person that used a pece of paper to help with that. I placed an a5 sheet of paper on the item, measured it, took the paper off and engraved. It worked.
In conclusion, the P2 is a beast of a machine that works.
This machine does everything I could ask for. Clear acrylic? No problem. The large bed size and great support makes it a no brainer over other c02 lasers on the market. Five stars without a doubt. I have never used a laser before and made some awesome things the first week!
