Well worth it at this price point. Very sturdy and reasonably designed for a small desktop CNC milling machine. It was fairly easy to assemble. The instructions for assembly were decent. Did have to look at the website for a few things. The printed instructions that came with it had a QR code for help that was a broken link. But, a simple Google search brought me to the Lunyee web site. The web site was simple to navigate and has lots of good stuff like info and software. The version of machine I received as shipped came with a PCB control board with one thing I didn't like. The E-Stop would make the machine stop 'eventually' but not always right away. I contacted customer support via email and got a quick response. The emails came fast and they worked quickly to resolve my concern. They sent me a new PCB and now the E-Stop works as expected with immediate stop when pressed. I have only carved wood with it so far and it seems to do a good job. I recommend getting a dust collector setup similar to what I have in the photo. The Lunyee part for dust collection that attaches to the spindle column was a separate purchase. Then of course you would need a hose and dust collection system. I went with a DIY version of a 'Dust Deputy' and a shop vac. The hoses etc. fit without clamps to the Lunyee part. You can use the 'Offline Controller' or a USB connection to a computer; but not both at the same time. You can only connect one at a time. The preferred method is a computer with the right software, but in a pinch or just to test it out, the 'offline Controller' works decent as a standalone option. Seems to have enough power for soft wood and plastic. I have not yet tried with hardwood; should be alright at slower speeds. For some soft metals like aluminum, I would only do relatively light engraving and shallow milling.

I've wanted, and needed, a machine like this for several years, intending to use it to make parts for telescopes. The reviews that I read for other machines scared me off with comments about plastic parts and low powered motors. A router/milling machine needs to be very rigid and square and have a powerful enough motor for the material you intend to use. This machine meets these requirements. Very impressed with everything from packaging, to assembly, and performance. Everything you need is here, including a nice set of starter bits The packaging is very nice and very well done. All parts are easy to locate and complete, no missing parts, no damaged parts. The machine arrives in two major preassembled parts. They are easily bolted together. Total assembly could be done in 1 to 2 hours. I took my time and still had the router up and running in very little time. Wires are labled very clearly. The motor fits very snugly in the housing, be sure to loosen the bolts enough and align the motor to the holder. If the motor is the least bit tilted, it will not fit, the tolerences are very tight. The instruction manual is very helpful and is simple but complete including wiring diagrams. There are videos on the internet that show how to do the cable management easily, all need parts included. The machine looks very neat when finished. All assembly tools are included, Super Lube for the moving parts.... very nice! Assembly was easy and everything fit nicely. The bed is fantastic, just like a professional mill, it has evenly spaced drilled and tapped holes for the clamps. A graduated scale etched into the surface. Also very stable with no play. What could be better. More than I expected. Very nice. No plastic parts on this machine, all structural parts are metal. The X axis has very nice guide rails instead of metal rods. Z axis the same. No play anywhere, all moving parts very stable out of the box. Square the gantry to the bed and bolt the two together with 12 bolts. No additional adjustment required. Fit and finish of all the parts is excellent. The machine runs great. Connection to the computer was easy, using the supplied driver and Candel software. Other control software from the internet, g Sender etc. all worked well. This is a really beautiful machine. On the level of an industrial machine. Surfacing a sample piece showed very smooth tool marks, a Bridgeport mill is about the same and costs tens of thousands more. I know, I was a manufacturing engineer for several years. Amazing what can be done with stepper motors. Repeatability seems very good, much like a 3D printer (a good one). A mill is more difficult to use than a printer mainly becuase you have a very sharp rotating bit that can collide with your clamps and bed if you are not very careful. Try to air cut your parts as a test without clamps, or a bit in the router, and NO workpiece. Test the machine movements before you cut anything. Then cut foam or some soft material so you will not break a bit, or something else. Use a thin scrap piece, larger than your workpiece, on top of the bed so you will not damage the bed. Protect the bed! Chose the correct feed and speed and bit for the material you will be cutting, experience is a very good teacher. Be careful, this is a real machine not a toy. Overall, I am very impressed with this machine. Watching it run is fascinating and took me back to times long ago in industry. Now, it's here on a desktop, with the accuracy we thought impossible and using very similar g codes! The machine is designed for smaller projects, which is exactly what I need. If you need a very large bed, this is not for you. The dimensions are as advertized. If your projects fit this size machine, I think you will be very pleased. I don't see how you could do better at this price level. I'm not going to try to improve upon it, everything works and works very, very well. I will clean it, lube the screws, change the bits, program parts and enjoy the results. What more could I ask? P.S. I would very much like to order the lasers and blast some plywood!

Bought this CNC because cheaper models are just garbage, construction is solid and relatively easy to assemble however after running successfully for 2 weeks the control board started to act up and would stop mid program, initially I thought it was a program glitch but after reloading software it turned out the machines control board was faulty, contacted customer service they were clueless, not to mention Collet nut was missing when item arrived, disappointed with this machine ruined lots of carbon fiber parts as a result, and don’t expect their customer service to be knowledgeable because they aren’t, spent the extra money and buy a reputable brand product to avoid cheap parts that will fail eventually.

First off, Lunyee's customer service is exceptional. I had some minor issues, they were quick to respond, and provided solutions. Top notch! The Good: At the time of purchase (early summer 2024) the Lunyee 3018 Pro Ultra, offered the best bang for the buck, it's much more rigid with actual linear rails on the X-axis instead of rods, and the included 500W spindle is about the largest in this market segment. Mine had some minor shipping damage when I got it, my offline controller arrived with a damaged LCD screen. Lunyee was quick with getting me a replacement. In a separate order, I got some extra Lunyee clamps, and they arrived without the rubber end caps. A message to Lunyee and they sent me a whole new set of clamps. I had some teething issues during setup with the recommended Easel software, and Lunyee's customer support was able to talk me through a resolution. The not as Good: The Pro Ultra has a solid aluminum bed with tapped holes, which I mistakenly thought would be better than T-slots. To date, there haven't been enough holes in the right spot to actually use the holes for clamping for anything I've used it for, I'd much rather have the T-slot version. Thankfully, I discovered some really good double sided tape, XFasten (B08NVLTYXB on Amazon) designed for routers, that's been my go-to and has worked great. If I start doing stuff that requires a spoil board, I may change my mind about the solid bed, but so far that's not the case. It's fairly small with about 12x7.5" usable X-Y travel, but it's a bench top router, so size limitations should be expected. Using the "recommended" Easel software is frustrating, I'm just using the free version, so it's extremely limited. However, it's got a pretty decent trace tool, so I can design stuff in whatever software I want, save it as an image file and use Easel's trace tool to import it and turn it into g-code. The Grbl controls are a little clunky, I don't know if it's just my machine, but if (and it's a pretty big if) the E-stop actually decides to work, it's got like a 10-20 second delay. Additionally, it loses its mind about 2/3s of the time when hitting a limit switch, requiring a complete shutdown and restart. I've learned to work around these issues. If you look at the "Butch's Shop" carving photo I uploaded, you can see some imperfections, I don't know if that's Easel sending bad g-code or Grbl not interpreting it correctly, there's deeper spots in some of the letters, and plunge marks. Everything is supposed to be 1/8" deep. It's not a constant issue, but has happened a few times now. Random musings: I think the bulk of my complaints are with the Easel software. There are several alternatives, even open source stuff. Vcarve currently has my attention, a little pricey, but the non-pro version is more than sufficient for a little router like this. Assembly is pretty straight forward, decent enough instructions, even tools included. Ball end hex sockets and a ratchet will make things a lot easier. I did manage to hook the probe up wrong, easy to do, and that took a little head scratching to figure out. Speaking of the probe, despite having Easel setup in Inches, it still wants the probe dimensions in Millimeters, it took a message to Lunyee to figure that one out. I got a Genmitsu aluminum CNC router vise (B0CY2BSWCJ on Amazon) hoping it would work with the tapped holes on the Lunyee Pro Ultra. Unfortunately it doesn't work. No matter the orientation, only 2 holes align with the mounting holes/slots on the vise. Dust control is a must! The Lunyee Dust Shoe (B0D4CM3RKT on Amazon) works great and the magnetic mounts make bit replacement pretty easy. I added a Dewalt Stealthsonic "quiet shop vac," while not silent, a heck of a lot quieter than any traditional shop vacs, and worth it if you're gong to spend any appreciable time in the same room while it's running. Despite getting the offline controller, I've never actually used it. Instead I got a used, HP, min PC that is dedicated to running the router. I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could.

So i have a 3018pro from 2013 it was a pretty good machine for wood and foam but, put aluminum down it loses its mind, with this new 3018 pro ultra machine its super easy to assemble threaded holes instead of those twist in and hope nuts, its super sturdy and solid and cuts aluminum, great 500 watt spindle is extremely quiet compared to 775 motor running full 16mm linear rails on the x and 13mm ways for the y, make deflection unheard of. Runs everything i put on the machine and wouldn't be surprised if it would do the one off mild steel part but i haven't and probably won't test that theroy. For the price this machine is at the top of the 3018 listing, and looks nice with included wire management, and very little calibration needed to get the machine to a repeatable cuts!

The machine works and works good but the only way I know they do so far is I’ve seen it work on YouTube. In the adds to buy one you’ll see many prices. Find the one you want and search them all. You may pay $100 more than one of the other sights. Also pay no attention to the word “ultra” it is added next to the word “pro.” Ultra means nothing but will carry a higher price, watch out for seeing them installing a laser and it points toward a laser comes with that model particularly associated with the word “ultra.” The laser is more money. The CNC is small but not tiny. It is all steel and sturdy. Prepare for hardly any instructions. Don’t buy the cheaper ones made with plastic braces. If it wobbles you’ll have problems. Also give the few extra bucks and get the 80W laser but don’t be fooled it is a 10W laser power which is pretty dang good. 40W is a 5W which will work well just won’t cut thru wood as fast. It will make more passes but do the job, less than $40 to get the 80W or 10w laser. For this size CNC I think this one is probably the best after you go thru the equivalent of learning how to fly a jumbo jet faster than running it, but most all are that way, you’ll enjoy it. The quality is good.

I bought this as a complete newbie to CNC, so I thought that I would start small. This review will cover the unboxing and set up. I will update as soon as I complete my first project. I ordered one, open the box and started to put it together, only to find out that the bottom rails had been inserted wrong at the factory (I had to unscrew them and flip them to have the screw holes in the right place for the Z-Axis) and then found some small parts missing - the rubber feet and the small screws that hold the limiter switch. I let Amazon know and set it up for return. I ordered another one right away because I have a project that I want to complete this week, and did not want to wait for parts to come from China. Customer Service responded fairly quickly and offered to send the parts right away along with a partial refund, but it was too late as I jumped to get it sent back so I could get credit for my $400+ that I spent. Looking back, I would have taken them up on their offer, but I am so used to companies not responding that I jumped too soon. All that said, the second unit came in and I was just as impressed with the packing and quality of the unit as I was with the first one. There are several videos out there on Lunyee's YouTube channel that will get you all put together and connected fairly easily. Everything is metal and feels pretty solid. I installed the driver on my laptop that was provided on the USB drive that was in the box. That went fairly well. Then it was time to create a G-Code file. I was lost. I loaded the Candle program provided, but you have to have Gcode files to use. I do not. I messaged the company again and asked what software they recommend to create Gcode files. They steered me towards Easel. I also found another one from a Youtube Channel but have not checked it out yet. I found a great video from a YouTuber called cyberreefguru that walks through using Easel to create Gcode files from SVG files and it was immensely helpful. Today I hope to create a file and test my first simple project. So far, though, so good as far as build and the appearance of a quality machine.

I am very impressed with this CNC. I had done a great deal of research before buying this model from Lunyee. There are surprisingly few video reviews or blogs talking about this CNC, but I really don't understand why. To me, the best part of the entire tool is the aluminum module for the laser/spindle motor. It holds it very securely. Unless you accidentally jam the end mill into the work piece there is no significant deflection, unlike other similar desktop CNCs. I have had no problem milling wood (obviously) and aluminum. Pros: The frame is well constructed. All hardware lined up perfectly. Checking the tolerances on the gantry mount to the frame, it was dead square. The assembly was very fast (maybe 15 minutes?) and the provided manual was adequate. I think I had to refer to their youtube video on wiring once or twice to confirm a connection or two. Cons: There are really only a few that I've come across after using this for a couple of weeks. * First, this is an excellent CNC for a first time hobbyist... HOWEVER, there is pretty much nothing provided to get you started on cutting your first workpiece. This could definitely be improved, even if it's just a couple of walk through videos using easel or UGS or something similar. * Second, the emergency stop button has NO EFFECT when sending GCODE through UGS or Easel. It seems to only function when using the offline controller. I discovered this when I tried to emergency halt when I had forgotten to send a G28.1 to set a reasonable home and it tried to bury the end mill into the bed. * Third, the screw down hold downs provided are really designed for T-Tracks. The Ultra does not have T tracks in the bed, though you could certainly build them into a spoil board. This doesn't have much impact on me since my use case has me screwing the work piece down to the bed directly, but you should be aware of it. I could imagine a new user being puzzled as to how you are supposed to use these with the bed. Overall, I love it. It's fairly quiet (I mean, you can certainly hear it running, but in a workshop the noise is negligible compared to other things you're running. The dust extraction I have sucking up the chips is easily twice as loud as the CNC), cleanly designed, and pretty easy to operate. I would definitely buy this again.
