There’s a lot to like about Creality’s flagship budget printer<\/a>, but one of the rare drawbacks is that most models can\u2019t auto-level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Ender 3 auto bed leveling upgrade can save you countless hours of tedious manual bed honing to achieve the best possible prints. For our money, it’s one of the best ways to level up the Ender 3 experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For most users, I’d recommend the BLTouch Ender 3 Auto Bed Leveling Sensor<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though it’s a little more expensive than its competitors, the superior accuracy and performance still make it the best value-for-money pick overall.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If budget is your primary concern, you may want to consider a DIY option<\/a> – but not that this will require more experience to install and use reliably!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This guide will provide a breakdown of the best options I’ve tested, as well as a few common beginner questions to help you decide which Ender 3 bed leveling upgrade is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ender 3 Auto Bed Leveling Breakdown<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here, we\u2019ll break down what bed leveling provisions each version of the Ender 3<\/a> offers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each Ender 3 3D printer, and whether it has manual or automatic leveling.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With this in mind, an automatic bed leveling upgrade only really applies to the Ender 3, Ender 3 V2, Ender 3 Pro, and Ender 3 Max. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, you can swap out the CR Touch on the Ender S1 models for a BLTouch if you aren\u2019t completely happy with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
