I was torn between getting Bambu vs Prusa when upgrading from my old printer, but with the spyware, open source threats, and now this I think I chose well.
The choice has been obvious for a long time, even back when my Prusa Mk3s+ was the latest Prusa printer.
Bought a Mk3s used for $200 recently. Still fucks hard, just more slowly than the newer ones. No regrats.
Also, when and if you want to, you can upgrade that thing.
Mine hasn't been the most reliable tbh, but it could be my fault. I think my next printer will be the Prusa XL with at least 2 toolheads, or whatever the equivalent is when I finally am ready to drop that dough. I think I'll also pay extra for them to build it because, as much fun as it was to build my Mk3s+, I do wonder if some of my performance issues are my fault due to the assembly...
I recently got core one l, and it's a beast.
By the way try prusa support, I hear good things, apparently they help even with 'self-introduced' issues
I'll second this and add that they have been quick to respond for me. I emailed them on a Saturday morning and got a response within about 30 minutes.
Can confirm too, had a core one from the first batch and I broke some parts during assembly. Got sent new parts, with extra spares and 600 grams of carbon fibre PETG in case I needed any other parts, all free of charge (they knew I had a second printer).
I love my XL. It's been the best printer I've ever owned.
