Hi folks,

I’ve been watching too many video reviews and just want a little bit of advice before I make my purchase. I’m wanting to get into 3d printing with the most satisfying results possible for around $600 CAD .

I’m looking at the Ender 5 S1 , currently for $599 CAD on Amazon. It does what I want , I think, it gets nice and hot (300C) , can use lots of different materials, auto levels, uses.usb and wifi, is quick and has a cube frame.

I suspect I would be quite happy with it. But before I go and pull the trigger, is there anything else around this price range , say plus or minus $100 , that would be better? If so what advice can you give? What models should I investigate.

    As a new owner of a p1p. It’s the single best decision I’ve made as far as the 3d printing hobby goes. I cannot tell you how much time and money I sunk into my old bed slinger printer and the results never even got close to this thing out of the box.

    The only downside? You’re gonna absolutely tear through filament because of how well and fast it prints.
