Extra features The Anycubic Kobra features automatic bed leveling and a direct extruder for easy filament handling. The print bed is coated with PEI on a flexible steel plate, improving adhesion and making prints easier to remove. The printer features sensorless homing and is designed to be easily disassembled for easy maintenance and customization. The Artillery Genius Pro is a standout 3D printer with a fast-heating AC tempered glass print bed and a sleek design with a black aluminum base and blue accents. It features a Titan-style direct extruder and a 32-bit “Ruby” mainboard. Despite its advanced feature set, it struggles to maintain print quality, requiring frequent adjustments and calibrations, and its glued glass bed makes cleaning and replacement difficult.

Conclusion

In conclusion, both the Anycubic Kobra and the Artillery Genius Pro are solid contenders in the entry-level 3D printer market, boasting similar print volumes and automatic bed leveling features. However, they do present distinct differences that can influence a buyer's decision.

The Anycubic Kobra, being the more affordable option, offers a robust design with features aimed at enhancing user convenience, such as a PEI-coated flexible print bed that aids in print adhesion and removal. Its maximum nozzle temperature is higher, allowing for a broader range of filament options, although its overall performance ratings are modest.

On the other hand, the Artillery Genius Pro, while priced higher, brings a higher maximum bed temperature and some aesthetic advantages, including a modern design. However, it suffers from challenges in maintaining print quality, necessitating frequent calibrations. Moreover, its glued glass bed can complicate maintenance compared to the Kobra.

Ultimately, the choice between these printers may come down to budget and specific user needs. For those prioritizing an economical and user-friendly experience with decent flexibility in filament usage, the Anycubic Kobra is a commendable choice. Conversely, for users willing to invest more for slightly increased specifications, along with a visually appealing design, the Artillery Genius Pro offers worthwhile features, albeit with some caveats in print quality management.
