Just ordered an elegoo neptune 4 pro and planning to just put it on the floor since I have no extra tables. Other than not looking as good, I don't see too much of a disadvantage. Maybe I can raise it up with the filament boxes? What do you guys think?

I currently have mine almost on the floor and it's a terrible idea for ergonomics

I mean it's not like you're gonna be kneeling all that often are you? Just scraping the print off the thing right?

Maybe if your printer is perfectly tuned and never has any issues. I don't have that luck with mine

Imagine just changing a hot nozzle when it's sitting 4" off the floor.
