The sv06 is my only printer and I really like it. Did have to take it apart to lubricate the bearings but that's not too hard
I have had really good prints with PLA, PETG and TPU
Its not bad to take apart rods and bearings, clean and relube, but its usually enough to just drop tiny amount of oil on rods and just move your axis back and forth. I do it once a month
Technically, you're supposed to pack bearings with grease before installation (put grease inside bearing, plug opposite end with thumb and shove steel rod into the open side), but cheap printer manufacturers rarely do it, so that would be the first thing to do after you get the sv06. After that, your lubrication method is sufficient. But it is still better to repack bearings after a while and clean the rods.
