Our verdict on each
BIQU
BIQU suits first time buyers who want an FDM or resin printer without a large outlay, at an entry price of €160.95. The trade-off is colour, as multi colour is no, so prints stay single material and the 1 year warranty is the main cover.
Creality
Creality 3D Technology suits makers who want printing, scanning and laser engraving from one store, with machines starting at $199. The range mixes FDM, resin, scanning and laser gear under one roof, and support runs on email, phone and help centre for setup and troubleshooting.

Pros and cons
BIQU
Pros
- The €160.95 entry price sits under the €167.73 lower quartile of the category, so entry costs less than most of the field.
- Both an FDM and a resin printer in fdm printer and resin printer, where Sovol Technology lists fdm printer only.
- Print speed of 100 mm/s mm per second, a useful figure for the same small part run over and over.
Cons
- Multi colour is no, so a part that mixes filaments needs a second job or hand finishing afterwards.
- Build size of 270 mm ranks 20 of 23, under the 390 mm median across the site.
- Support runs on email, help centre and community, which leaves out phone help for faults you would rather talk through.
Creality
Pros
- The catalogue spans fdm printer, resin printer and 3d scanner, so printing, scanning and laser work stay under one brand.
- Multi colour printing is available, and 89.5% of brands in the printer ranking offer it too.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre, giving phone and a help centre alongside email.
Cons
- Starting price ranks 11 of 27 brands, so cheaper entry points sit elsewhere.
- Build size ranks 13 of 23 on the same measure, which leaves the biggest machines to other brands.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre with no live chat listed, so quick answers wait on email, phone or the community board.
Who each suits
BIQU
Who it suits
- First time buyers who want filament and resin in fdm printer and resin printer without a large outlay.
- Makers running small repeated parts that fit 270 mm and can use a stated 100 mm/s mm per second top speed.
- Shoppers in the countries listed in Andorra, AE and AF who want delivery beyond a single market.
Who should look elsewhere
- Multi filament jobs in a single build, because multi colour is no.
- Anyone shopping for scanners, engravers or cutting machines alongside printers, since MatterHackers covers fdm printer, resin printer and 3d scanner.
- Oversize parts, since the build volume is 270 mm and nothing in the range goes beyond it.
Creality
Who it suits
- Makers who want FDM and resin printing, scanning and laser engraving from one supplier (fdm printer, resin printer and 3d scanner).
- Buyers who need multi colour printing inside an enclosed machine.
- Shoppers in the United States, MX and DE who want support by phone and a help centre.
Who should look elsewhere
- Sovol, whose catalogue is FDM printers only, for a buyer who wants no resin, scanning or laser range.
- Farnell, which lists FDM printers and scanners only, for someone buying a single machine type through a distributor.
- MatterHackers, which carries the same FDM, resin, scanning and laser mix plus cutting machines, for shops that need the wider machine mix.

Questions about each
BIQU
What does a BIQU printer cost to start with?+
The lowest listed printer is €160.95, which sits under the €167.73 lower quartile of the category, where the median sits at €262.21. That figure is a one-off hardware purchase price, not a rate that renews, so there is no second payment to plan for.
What kinds of printers does BIQU sell?+
The catalogue covers fdm printer and resin printer, so filament and resin sit under one brand and you can move between the two technologies. That is a wider split than Sovol Technology, whose range is fdm printer, and different again from Farnell at fdm printer and 3d scanner.
Creality
How much does the cheapest machine cost?+
Entry is $199 in the store's printer collection. That is the starting figure for a first machine, and the range runs upward from there into resin, scanning and laser equipment. Buyers moving up usually pay for the extra capability, so budget against the specific machine rather than the entry figure.
Is there a subscription or renewal cost after buying?+
The store sells hardware outright. Its published terms set out orders and support, at email, phone and help centre, rather than a recurring membership, so there is no renewal price in the cost of ownership here. What you weigh is the purchase, starting at $199, plus any add-on machine later.
