"refurbished" is a word that might not mean anything either.
When buying your first printer you should first choose what you want: Do you want to print or do you want to tinker?
If you want to print, get a printer like the Bambulab a1 mini. If you want to tinker, an Ender 3 is ok.
If you want to really tinker a lot, get an used one.
But I really wouldn't recommend getting an used printer for your first one since you don't know how they have been treated and messed up.
Thank you that's very useful
I’m seeing FLASHFORGE 3D Printer Adventurer 5M new for $200 after coupons. Would you recommend the A1 mini or the 5M?
Tbh, no Idea. I haven't heard anything about the Flashforge one, so I can't say anything about it. Maybe look for some reviews.
