How benchmarksutra rates 3d printers: maker-stated specs and Indian prices only, nothing guessed.
Quick Verdict
The benchmarksutra 3D Printer Score rates 8 3d printers sold in India. Every spec comes from the maker's own product page, and every price from an Indian retailer's listing. We never use test results from other sites, and we never fill a gap with a guess.
Researched, not hands-on tested. Scores use only the specifications on each maker's own product page (checked 14 November 2026) and prices at Indian retailers (checked 14 November 2026). We did not test these 3d printers ourselves. How the benchmarksutra 3D Printer Score works.
What we rate
Build volume. Build volume in litres from the maker's dimensions. 20 litres rates 100 (a 256 mm cube is about 16.8 litres).
Top speed. Top print speed the maker states. 600 mm/s rates 100. Real prints run slower.
Hot end temperature. Hottest the hot end goes: 220 °C rates 0 and 300 °C rates 100. Higher temperatures open up nylon and carbon-fibre filaments.
Enclosure. Enclosure stated by the maker: yes 100; if the maker does not name one, we count it as open-frame (0). Helps with ABS and ASA, fumes and noise.
Multi-colour. Multi-colour system included or built in, as the maker states: yes 100; not named counts as no (0).
Auto bed levelling. Automatic bed levelling stated by the maker: yes 100.
Price. Lowest price we found, against the cheapest printer in the list.
Buyer profiles
What we checked
We read each maker's own product or tech-specs page for build volume, speed, hot end temperature, enclosure, multi-colour support and bed levelling. Retail listings are used only for the price. Where a maker leaves something out, that row is left out and the weights re-spread. A printer is ranked only if its maker states at least 4 of the 7 rated specs.
What we do not rate
Print quality, reliability and noise need test prints. We do not run them and we do not use other sites' results.
Price vs score
What the score does not measure
Print quality, reliability and noise.
Real print speed for a normal part (top speeds are rarely used).
Slicer software and app quality.
Resin printers. They need different rows and are not in this score.
