Is this reliable or am I going to end up spending more time tweaking than actual printing?

This is reliable. I've had original ones going for about 5 years now. Once I figured them out the settings just stayed set, generally.

If you want a truly plug and play experience I would suggest the Bambu Labs line of smart printers. They cost a lot more though and have a lot of proprietary parts/software.

These enders are mostly open source so there is a lot of knowledge resources available.

How have you had this for 5 years? I thought this model only released this past July...
See my comment, "I've had original one going for 5 years".
MY comment is to the durability of these machines and the lack of need to fidgit with settings, after initial dialing in process, generally.

Everyone just wants to start a fight instead of understanding anything written or said in a situation.

This is generally regarded as the easiest to get up and running 3d printer in its price range.

did you have any actual input to add?

I'm trying to decide if I wanna just upgrade my old original ender 3 that I've been keeping alive this long, to this newer version so I don't have to bed level anymore with it, or just get a P1S (I have a P1P already).

So tempting to get this. My Ender 5 (original version) works perfectly, though. Not sure if I'll gain much with this, other than maybe some reliability, but my E5 is working perfectly for over 4 years now.

I just got this one., Set it up in about 20 minutes and had some test jobs going soon after. This is pretty reliable out of the box.

I've upgraded a lot of parts on my ender 3 v2 including dual Z axis and I am tempted to pull the trigger on this. Otherwise one day I'll go for a higher model.

My 12 year old really wants one of these for Christmas. Thinking of getting this as a starter one for us both to try. What else do I need to buy?

All you really need is a 3D printer (this), some filament (cheap rolls of PLA on amazon are around $12 a kg, get two or so to start with), and some files from something like thingiverse or printables.

Print some basic models to see what settings you need to tweak and then have fun! No need to buy fancy plates, filter systems, or special nozzles unless you guys decide you want to stick with things.
