Calls it a monster of a machine at $569: a 400x400x450 mm volume suited to prop makers and cosplayers, fast assembly, accurate auto leveling and an easy-release glass bed. Warns it is bigger, not faster, so large prints take days.
“The Kobra Max is an excellent printer with enormous print volume that needs a lot of room to operate.”
Likes the huge print area, convenient auto leveling and high-quality results, and finds it ideal for cosplay and prop making. Dislikes the slow printing, the lack of a larger nozzle and the non-removable bed.
“The Anycubic Kobra Max is a pricey investment for hobbyists and enthusiasts, but it's far from being overpriced.”
The review page (archived copy; the article body did not load) carries the headline 'Best Large 3D Printer' and a 4 out of 5 rating in its page data. Describes the 400 x 400 x 450 mm volume as among the largest for home users.

Reviews the large-format Kobra Max: asks whether it packs a punch at a bigger scale and whether the prints are good. Notes the pricing changes between Amazon and Anycubic's store. Conclusion not summarised here.
Anycubic is a Chinese 3D printer maker founded in 2015. It sells the Kobra line of FDM printers, including the enclosed Kobra S1 and S1 Max, the large Kobra 3 Max and the low-cost Kobra X, the ACE Pro multi-material unit and Photon resin printers. Its printers are aimed at hobbyists and home users at budget to mid-range prices.

Anycubic is mixed: its printers work locally in LAN mode, take third-party filament and slicers, and have spare parts and guides, but its published firmware source leaves proprietary parts closed, custom firmware is unsupported, and its cloud had a security incident in 2024.
ファームウェアとカスタムファームウェア ●●●●●
The Kobra 3, 3 Max and S1 run Klipper-go, Anycubic's Go port of Klipper. Anycubic published its source with the kernel and U-Boot under GPL, for the Kobra 3 in October 2024 and for the wider family in October 2025, but says some proprietary features are kept closed, and that modifying the firmware voids the warranty. The community project Rinkhals adds Fluidd, Mainsail and SSH, and reports that the newer Kobra X only accepts signed updates.

ローカル制御と連携 ●●●●●
LAN mode lets Anycubic Slicer Next send prints, show progress and stream video on the local network without an account, and the S1's firmware 2.5.9.9 added sending from OrcaSlicer. With LAN mode on, the cloud, the app and AI failure detection are off, and the S1 must leave LAN mode and be bound to an account to update its firmware. Anycubic documents no local API for other software; Moonraker, Fluidd and Mainsail come only with the community firmware Rinkhals.

サードパーティー製フィラメント、スライサー、部品 ●●●●●
Third-party filament works. Anycubic Slicer Next is an open-source OrcaSlicer fork, and recent firmware accepts files sent from OrcaSlicer. Hotends, extruders and many other parts are model-specific Anycubic parts.
[6][5][7]
修理と交換部品 ●●●●●
Anycubic's store sells hotends, extruders, motherboards, heated beds, motors and screens, and its wiki has replacement guides for current models, for example the Kobra S1 Max XY motors and the Kobra X Y-axis motor.
[7][8][9]
データとプライバシー ●●●●●
LAN mode keeps data on the local network, but the app and cloud need an account. Anycubic's privacy policy allows broad collection, including product usage, device signals and nearby Wi-Fi access points, and storage in the United States. In February 2024 a flaw in its cloud MQTT server let a third party push a file to Kobra 2 printers; Anycubic apologised and patched it.
[10][11][4]
コミュニティとドキュメント ●●●●●
Active user community and a wiki with guides and error codes for each model. Source releases leave proprietary parts closed, and custom firmware is a community effort.

メリット
Budget to mid-range prices, with multi-colour Combo bundles.
LAN mode works without an account.
Spare parts and replacement guides for current models.
Open-source slicer, and third-party filament works.
デメリット
Published firmware source leaves some features closed; modifying firmware voids the warranty.
LAN mode turns off the app, cloud and AI failure detection, and firmware updates need the cloud.
The privacy policy allows broad data collection.
Its cloud was used to push files to printers in 2024 (fixed).
実績
10月 2025: Anycubic published Klipper-go, its Go port of Klipper, as a standalone project for the Kobra 3, Kobra 3 V2, Kobra 3 Max and Kobra S1, with the MCU firmware, Linux kernel and U-Boot sources, on GitHub under GPL-3.0. It says some proprietary features remain closed.
[2][12]
10月 2024: Anycubic published the Kobra 3 firmware sources (Klipper-go, MCU firmware, Linux kernel and U-Boot) on GitHub under GPL-3.0.

2月 2024: A third party used a vulnerability in Anycubic's cloud MQTT server to make Kobra 2 Pro/Plus/Max printers download a file named 'hacked_machine_readme.gcode'. Anycubic counted 237 affected printers and over 2,000 that received the file, apologised for its late response, tightened cloud authorisation and released a firmware fix.
