Anything with NEO in it as it comes with auto leveling.

Probably the S1 since it has the touch installed and pei bed already and upgraded extruder. You can easily add these to one of the cheaper models if you want.

Okay prices, not earthbreaking.

I paid $171 for the Ender 3 NEO and $255 for the Ender 3 V2 NEO via Amazon over the past three weeks. Shipping was via Prime and fairly quick.


In all now, I have owned the Ender 3 Pro, Ender 3 NEO, Ender 3 V2 NEO, and the Ender CR-6 SE. Except for the CR-6 SE, the rest only have small differences. (Mainly in the addition of CR-Touch bed imperfection/temp measurer on the NEOs. )

Total 3DP noob here, but would like to get into it. What is the main difference with the CR-6 SE (compared to the other others you listed)? Would you recommend the CR-6 over the others you've used?

I have a several hundred dollar budget, just would like to buy "the right one" first...

I personally went with S1 a couple of months ago. No complaints so far. I got the glass bed and nozzle pack. Glass bed because I got tired of scraping the burned in prints into the original surface. I upgraded the firmware to "S1 Professional Firmware" which now makes any bed levelling adjustments a breeze which I don't even do anymore.

I agree, of the 5 printers I've had, the S1 is probably the most user friendly (least frustrating).

Have the Ender 3 v2 Neo and it's by far one of the easiest to use, best printing fdm printer I've ever had.

I wish there was an easy way to compare the seemingly infinite model range...

I'm wanting to get into 3D printing, but don't want to miss a major printer feature over $50.

Hijacking thread to ask a filament question: any recommendations on a general PLA for learning/experimentation? I just started printing (Ender 3 v2) last weekend. Just for hobby/DIY/etc, not a business, so I am not super concerned about an A+ finish.

Is the Creality-branded filament worth or, just something else?

Ovation, eSun, polymaker, hatchbox and inland are safe bets.TBH I haven't received filament that was unacceptable in years, and I've bought some really cheap stuff. The only issue with the really cheap stuff is sometimes it needs to be dehydrated, though that's not as much of an issue with PLA.

If your budget allows it, get a Prusa. Mk4 is coming out soon.

Honestly for your first roll, it doesn't really matter. You can do PLA or PLA+, whatever brand/color you want, as long as the filament is dry, it won't really matter. You'll be learning the basics of the printer with this roll, so there's no need to spend $30+ on something fancy, any $15-20 roll will do.

Initially I'd avoid silk PLA or any PLA that has fillers/additives like wood, fibers, or glow-in-the-dark. I haven't used the Creality filament but I haven't heard anything bad about it. I personally use either GST, Hatchbox or Polymaker.

I've got the S1 Pro and it has nice features, but I can't get the darn thing to print as well as the $100 Anet printer I bought a couple years ago as my first printer. The first layer on my prints has spaces and gaps that never fill in.

Bambulab P1P, used Prusa MK3S+, or new Prusa MINI+ in that order.

Avoid Creality unless you want modding and fixing 3D printers to be your hobby instead of 3D printing.
