"Any particular reason you’re looking at MK3S+ rather than an MK4 btw?"
MK4 is 1200 and MK3S+ is 700 I believe.
Thanks for the advice. My dad wants to get the Bambulab P1P as its faster than the Prusa so might get that
Pre-assembled they're €1200 and €1000, kits cost €890 and €720 respectively.
CoreXY (i.e. the P1P) is definitely sexier than a bedslinger, and if I was going to get either of these two for home use I would definitely go with Bambu Labs. Was just thinking that for a business reliability and support might be worth more, but that totally depends on your use case.
I think we might go with the Bambulab. I have seen quite a few say they are pretty reliable. As opposed to something like the Ender 3 which I have heard people say are a bit unreliable and you have to spend time tweaking.
Some parts of the Bambulab apparently you can't buy. Here is a youtube comment i saw "yes, they do, but as he alluded to, some of them are not replaceable, or even serviceable, like the carbon rails ..."
Hopefully the carbon rails (whatever they are) wont break though lol
