xTool F1 2-in-1 Dual Laser Engraver, Lightning Speed Portable Laser Engraving Machine, HD Laser Engraver for Jewelry, Metal, Wood, Leather

This laser is super fun to use. I do wish I would have gotten the S1 or M1 Ultra over this, mostly for size purposes. The IR laser can do a very very shallow engraving on stainless steel, aluminum and brass but takes quite a bit of time. Especially compared to a regular fiber laser. The diode laser is where this machine shines. Especially because it's portable. It cuts thin wood, engraves wood nicely and marks anodized aluminum. Portraits come out amazing on this machine. The software has a nice polish to it, but it's lacking a lot (like the ability to do variable text). You're limited to how many passes you can do, it even limits lines per millimeter. This machine is lightburn compatible so I have ended up ditching XCS all together with this machine. Overall good for casual hobbiests, but after a few months this machine mostly sits on my shelf in favor of more powerful/compatible machines.

Its a good laser for general marking. My primary use was business cards, laser engraved photos and keychains. I upgraded to the F1 ultra not long after getting the F1. I still use it while the F1 ultra is busy with the heavier work. Overall its a good entry level laser that is very capable for its size, the price is reasonable for a fiber laser, the software is user friendly for the most part. Having both a diode and fiber laser in a single package has its advantages. The size can be a limitation but its good enough for most things.

We run both the xTool F2 Ultra and the xTool F1, and they each serve a very different but equally important role for us. The F2 Ultra handles our heavy production work, but the xTool F1 is outstanding for portability and mobile use. Being able to transport a laser engraver this easily and still get clean, professional results is a huge advantage. We use the F1 for on site engraving, events, quick jobs, and situations where bringing a full size machine is not practical. Despite its compact size, the F1 performs extremely well. Engraving quality is sharp and consistent across wood, leather, acrylic, and coated metals. The dual laser setup makes it flexible, and the lightning fast speed means you are not waiting around for small jobs to finish. Setup is quick, calibration is simple, and the workflow is smooth. It is the kind of machine you can take out of the case, set up, and start engraving without hassle. Build quality feels solid and confidence inspiring for something designed to be portable. Bottom line. The F1 is not a replacement for a large production machine like the F2 Ultra, but as a mobile, transportable laser engraver it is excellent. If you need professional results on the go, the xTool F1 delivers.

My other engraver doesn't work as good as this one. It is made good, works great and is potable. It laser engraves and looks good.

I wanted to like this product so bad because of its ease of use and portability however the first machine I received IR nor blue light laser would actually work which I assumed was a slim chance of happening. I returned and replaced the product and got a new working machine....for one day. This was not user error, the IR laser started strong. But after three projects, it became noticeably weaker. On the 4th it stopped working all together. After numerous tests both the IR and blue light lasers stopped working again for a second time. This machine has not been reliable by any stretch of imagination. understandably you get what you pay for so if you would like something to actually be able to do the jobs you want look at spending upwards of 3K. It's hit or miss at this price point I hope others have had better experiences and I really wanted to like this but there's no way I could do that. I considered upgrading to the F1 ultra but what's the point if the company quality control is this bad? I would rather not spend three times the money for the same awful quality.

I always use 3d printers "Creality, Prusa, Anycubic and Bambu Lab, so I ask why getting a engraving laser? The answer is simple open new doors for your Imagination all the Lasers in the market, you can pickup I recommend the Xtool F1 is small fits anywhere, the price and quality you get is so impressive you can believe in your eyes the quality you get is it easy to use and fast. You don't have no headaches and the software is easy to use and learning is the most easy understandable, you can use in the market I never thinking I having so many fun using this laser and depending the settings you use you can engrave in color that's very impressed. I just start using this laser for a couple of weeks. So if you want Engraving, Cut or Craftsman. I recommend this laser. Trust me, you don't going to regret it, in the end, you be surprised what you can do with it, your imagination is the limit in the end is a good Investment. If you don't know how to use it. Trust me in a couple of weeks, you'll be a professional. It's so easy to use and learn You can use your computer or you can use app on your phone to operate it. Plus so many ideas, you can get it and their website and Facebook group are amazing

Fantastic tool! It does take some trial and error to get some results. It's a safe household tool when used correctly, the sensors are sensitive! I am pleased with my purchase, I'll probably upgrade someday.

Great machine! Easy to use software. I love the fast you can remove a piece of base that allows it to be used with larger material. Great value for the money. Durable design compared to Creality. You don't have to worry about this falling apart. Easily movable. Super accurate laser and easy to use with the boarder feature.

يجنن ماشاء الله ربي يبارك لي

What truly sets XTool apart is their exceptional customer service. I had an issue with my original machine, and their support team—especially Wendy—was absolutely amazing. She guided me through the replacement process and also helped with a refund, all with patience and professionalism. It’s rare to find such dedicated and responsive support these days. I’m beyond thankful to Wendy and the entire XTool team for standing behind their product and treating their customers with care and respect. Highly recommend the XTool F1 to anyone looking for quality and peace of mind!

Very good quality. The software is easy to use and the machine speed is fast. Almost all materials can be engraved, I guess. It’s portable and convenient to carry. Not very heavy
