I’m just getting into 3d printing and I’m looking for some recommendations. My budget is $400 and I’ve narrowed it down to the sv06+ or the Ender-3 V3. I like that the print size is bigger on the sv06+ but all reviews point to the Ender, do you guys have any recommendations for me?

Also maybe the bambu a1? Or a1 mini? I don’t like that the firmware isn’t open source though.

I’m OK tinkering but just want some insight.

Thanks!

    The one thing enders are good for is teaching you how to troubleshoot printer issues. My only printer right now is the ender 3 v2. Next one I get is likely going to be a voron derivative so I don’t have to source parts/build it from scratch.

      That’s for sure, I converted my ender into a belt driven z axis. Lots of tinkering lol.
