Its basically half price. When you get it print a side spool holder or buy one for a table, spool on top iant good for vibrations.

Short answer -- yes. While I don't have this printer, I sort of wish I did considering the reviews its getting:

For a beginner I would recommend the Bambu A1 mini. It's $200 unless you have a TikTok shop coupon you may be able to save a few bucks but they are great machines. Ender machines are best for tinkerers.

At that price this is a no brainer. I paid $200 for Ender 3 V3 SE New, and this is the upgrade to it.

I've had every printer from prusas to ratrigs to vorons. I got a v3 ke about six months ago from amazon returns, it was around this price.

The thing just flat out works, and works well. Near silent. Wifi built in. Great for pla/petg. Leveling works well enough.

I chiefly use orcaslicer and this printer simply gives very good results. I don't think it's failed any prints that weren't the fault of my slicing. For $144 I don't think you can go wrong.

The extent of "tinkering" this printer needs is I printed a little rack that clips on to hold the side cutters and some Allen wrenches.

Now that the V3 SE price went up to $110 it's just that much easier to suggest this one over the SE. As for those who say get the Bambu Labs over this, well BL does make a really good printer but the A1 mini has a significantly smaller build area vs this model. I would be curious how many people have used both and can give a true back to back comparison. Yeah, a lot of people have used the older Enders but this isn't one of the previous generations.

I recently bought, last month with the same referb deal on ebay, 17 Ender 3 V3 SE machines - 6 had issues, I was able to move parts around and send back 2 of them, making the other 15 work.

I bought 5 - 3 V3 KE machines, 4 had major issues, and 3 are going back. I am only able to get 2 fully working units out of the 5.

Finally a good 3D printer. The speed on this printer should be an industry standard minimum speed.

I was new to 3D printing last year and had I listened to this advice, I would have missed out on printing some really cool models / things based on how tiny the A1 mini is. Like last week, I printed a knife block for some custom knives I made.

It's not helpful to recommend something the size of a coupe when the deal is for something the size of a sedan.

I would pass on this, and just buy a Bambu. I prefer prusa, and a used mk3 would be also better than this ender. You will constantly be struggling with these Enders, having to modify it all the time to try to get the Bambu out of the box experience. Bambu is a good starter printer and for more $$$ a prusa will serve you well
