Found this deal at B&H Photo which includes free expedited shipping. This model comes standard with the upgraded Sprite Full-Metal Extruder, High-Temp Nozzle, CR Touch Leveling, LED light bar and touch screen.
Also, I was able to do price match at Micro Center which currently sells the same model for $450 plus tax.

I started with an regular S1 and, once dialed in, is rock solid.
I used this video about setup and assembly. Its long but pretty detailed.

I may get into other filaments at some point but I am mostly PLA and PLA+ right now.
However, I only spend minimal time using them and I'm sure there are reasons why this model would be preferred to the Elegoo.

Don't agree 100%. Resin printers are known for detail but...dealing with resin, odors, fumes may not be the best for those starting out.

This is a major upgrade over the Ender 3 V2. The S1 Pro has the Sprite dual gear all metal extruder compared to the typical Bowden which helps with extrusion related issues. Also, higher filament compatibility, the CR touch auto-level is more accurate than the BL touch, Z-Axis dual screw and motors with the belt assist, touchscreen and filament sensor. I was going to go with the V2 but at this price I figured, I get all the upgrades that I would otherwise have done for cheaper when is all set and done.
These look like they start out at "great" and don't leave a lot to be improved by inexpensive/printable upgrades. I'm pretty tempted by this because I've got 3 rolls of TPU filament I've never really been able to use since I don't have a direct extruder.
Edit: Damnit, Slickdeals... I bit. Looking forward to finally being able to print TPU, though!
