Laser Engraver Ideal For Home Projects
![]() |
“The Genmitsu Kiosk is newcomer-friendly. It’s great for someone who would like to make a small DIY business at home or in a small studio,” says Jamie from SainSmart support. “It’s handy on farms and ranches. We highly recommend it for marking the nameplates or numberplates of animals or crops.”
The Kiosk’s removable base plate offers flexibility for larger projects, and its pre-assembled frame ensures it’s ready to use out of the box.
“We’re currently at the forefront in the category of home laser machines,” says Jamie. “Compared to other brands’ laser machines, our prices are quite favorable. Our machines are easy to operate, simple and beautiful to look at, and have built-in safety features. Not only is the outside of the machine protected by lightproof acrylic, but it includes a safety shield.”
Each engraver comes with SainSmart control software, although they also support Lightburn or LaserGRBL.
Jamie explains, “Lightburn is especially beginner-friendly. There are a lot of tutorials on YouTube for learning the basics of working with this machine.”
Because the engraver uses a diode laser, Jamie points out that it can only mark soft metal number plates, even at the highest laser power settings (10W). Nevertheless, it’s capable of engraving and cutting wood, plastic, acrylic and more.
Online reviews show that customers find the Genmitsu Kiosk easy to operate and highly accurate.
Others noted that, while the setup was straightforward, the handbook and software installation instructions were lacking. Still, they shared that the SainSmart support team helped solve their problems. While a few reviewers found that the device occasionally malfunctioned, most believed the kiosk’s performance was impressive for its size, stating that the engraver was fast, accurate and quiet.
The Engraver is priced starting at $199 on the company website. Shipping is available through the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia. Choose between three laser power models: 2.5, 5 or 10W.
