You can get a new Sovol SV06 for less than $200. That worked very well out of the box compared to my older Ender 3. Prusaslicer also has a good profile for it. I don't care for Cura slicer as much. Enders are of an older generation of printers that I will personally avoid just because of the legacy of having to tinker with them just to get them to work. The opposite end is the Bambu where "it just works" except it doesn't always and it's not as easy to fix and it doesn't play well with third parties. Sovol is a good starter printer that I'd had even better bed adhesion with over Prusa MK4Ss at work.
Thanks for the advice. I'll look into that one.
