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!

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I think I'm gonna get the a1 mini, they do have a ice deal on and I don't think I'll be printing large items and it'll be nice if I want to print multicolour items in the future with the AMS lite.

Thanks!

Let us know how you like it when you're done. I want to stay on top of things for when I upgrade.

Got one of those (with the AMS) a couple of days ago. Surprisingly simple to use and good results for my first ever prints. I'd recommend it.

Problem is, I'm already like 200€ deep into fillaments. Eeh.
