Conclusion
This is a nice product to have, but it’s by no means essential. You can get the same results with a really good manual cleaning, and many people swear by it. But personally, I’m in the camp where I think there are better things to do with your time than stirring IPA alcohol for 3 to 5 minutes and then standing in front of a UV lamp for the same amount of time to harden the resin.
The Mercury XS bundle is a simple solution that takes the headache out of this tedious part. Clearly, it’s a comfort solution. If you’ve got one, you know you won’t go back. And for 175 euros it’s a great addition to your resin 3D printer.
