This is my second day of playing with it so take it with a grain of salt.
I’m quite impressed with the laser capability. Anodizing aluminum is perfectly possible.
It can cut 3mm MDF with just 2 passes at 5mm/s speed. It’s a bit slow but still usable.
I’m just making a guinea-pig house to justify the investment to my wife. 
The work area is nice and you can easily put the laser on a big object as you can see on the picture above.
Even the customer support is responsive and surprisingly helpful.
