What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing gives conflicting size and weight figures: 9.84 x 9.84 x 6.38 inches and 3.98 pounds in product details, versus 250×250×162mm and 2kg in feature text. It also describes 2500mW laser power alongside 24W machine output, which are distinct stated figures. Confirm the precise configuration and intended material settings before purchase. The listing warns that transparent materials should be coated black before engraving to prevent reflection and damage.
