Ender-3 V2 3D Printer, Is it any good? (www.creality.com)

Hey, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to 3D printing. I have a chance to pick up this printer second hand, and I was wondering what the community thinks of the product. Would this printer be decent for a beginner? Thanks!

Seconding this. V2 has been awesome for me, but I had to add a bltouch to get consistently good results without fiddling with leveling all the time. Now, V2 gives me flawless prints with minimal tinkering.

Neo adds this by default, plus those other few upgrades that I think make it perfect for a newbie who just want to print.

V2 is good if you want to spend a little more time getting to know the machine and putting it together. Gives a good feel for how the machine works and is a good experience on its own.
