Prusa mini is a good starter printer, had mine for 4 years before the core 1 came out. If you have the room for a core 1, you won't regret it. It's a much more modern platform and will continue to be upgraded
Thank you, lots of people are recommending the Core 1. I'll definitely need to check that out.
One thing Prusa does is that they offer upgrades for their printers. So when the next one comes out, you can get an upgrade kit to get the new features.
It's not cheap, but they offer a LOT of support.
