If you don't want to have a second hobby as a 3D printer maintainer (which is totally fine if you like to thinker and calibrate print-settings) then Bambulab printers are really good (if you have pets, buy an enclosed one)
Interesting point.
IDK if you heard about Bambu's enshittification, an alternative that's very similiar in price and design is Qidi.
I didn't get a Bambu printer because of the price or design, I got it because of its "just works" reputation, which it does.
Unless Qidi matches that ease, it isn't equivalent, and that's important to mention. Maybe it does?
And yeah, I don't love the recent changes, but that's only ideologically. Practically speaking it is still amazing.
