Depends on your desire/tolerance to tinker or if you just want an appliance. If you want something you just plug in and go and it should print well every time then you spend the $700 and get the Bambu P1. If you care about price more than anything and are willing/desire to tinker there's Ender 3 models, Elegoo Neptunes, and Sovols that are in the $200 realm and will be solid but you're going to need to accept that working on the machine is part of the hobby. The K1 is kind of one of the first attempts to compete in that more appliance space, in theory at least but there were issues at launch and it bombed hard. Those seem to be largely fixed now (unless you get an early run model that's sitting around still) so in theory the K1 should be closer to the appliance side but heavily discounted right now to try and recover it. I wouldn't buy the Max but I would say at $350 the normal K1 could potentially be a great starter printer. Regardless, don't buy your first printer from anywhere you can't return easily (Amazon/Best Buy/Micro Center/etc.) in case you absolutely hate the printer or the hobby or you have an issue (most of these companies have very poor customer service).
General Edit- Oh and Best Buy has the Max for $719 right now (if you can't get them to match Micro Center), $30 more but they have returns until January 16th right now. The reputation of the K1 line seems to be drastically improved recently but I still want the two months to be able to run it and evaluate it myself with no issue returning it if it doesn't work out. Think that would be worth $30 rather than dealing with Creality (who are legendarily bad at customer service).

F5CJRB is the best code that I know of.

Also no reason to get an enclosed printer unless you want to print ABS and nylon, and since PLA plus has come out even less of a reason to print ABS or nylon. An enclosed printer just means it is harder to get at components to tune or replace them when the time comes. An ender 3 v3 SE is what I would get if I didn't have the requirements for a enclosure or the large bed size. The SE prints fast for a bed slinger even without Klipper and is only $179.

All 3D printers need some mod to it just to get a little more convenience.
If you don't print a lot of big parts like helmets and custom cosplay it is not worth it, but it is nice to have when you need it. It all comes down to price.
Consider looking into ELEGOO OrangeStorm Giga: Gigantic Volume Fast FDM 3D Printer on Kickstarter. LOL it is huge 800mm * 800mm * 1000mm Printing Size
For most people (80%) K1 size is more than enough. Can be upgraded with a Camera ($20-30) and hardened steel nozzle ($10 or less). Lidar is a junk gimmick same goes with Bambu.
If you are a beginner and just got into 3D printing and don't want all the hassle of troubleshooting/upgrading BS for little to no major change to print quality or speed, then consider a normal K1 version (not Max).
For those who already own a 3D printer getting K1 MAX would be the best choice.
