Hi folks,

I’ve been watching too many video reviews and just want a little bit of advice before I make my purchase. I’m wanting to get into 3d printing with the most satisfying results possible for around $600 CAD .

I’m looking at the Ender 5 S1 , currently for $599 CAD on Amazon. It does what I want , I think, it gets nice and hot (300C) , can use lots of different materials, auto levels, uses.usb and wifi, is quick and has a cube frame.

I suspect I would be quite happy with it. But before I go and pull the trigger, is there anything else around this price range , say plus or minus $100 , that would be better? If so what advice can you give? What models should I investigate.

    I have Prusa MK3S+ printers in my makerspace. They’re great. Very few issues. That said, I’m looking at a Sovol SV06 or maybe the plus for personal use just for the price difference. It was recommended to me by a guy with 15+ machines at a maker fair who prints as a business.
