At $230, the AD5M is a great deal. If I needed (or let's be honest, wanted) a printer before the Centauri becomes more available, I'd nab it at this price and buy a "tent" enclosure off Amazon like I have on my A1 Mini and Prusa Mini.
Happy to give thoughts on pros and cons if you want 'em. But honestly I think the big decision is do you want a cheap price on a great printer now, or hope you'll get a cheap price on a great printer in July/August.
I'm still deliberating between Elegoo CC and Bambu X1C or PS1.
If you plan on choosing Elegoo CC, you can pick one from Microcenter if you don't want to endure the wait buying from Elegoo.

Like as you FRESHLY start using this printer? The belts will stretch a little over time (100+ hours of use), and it becomes loose. Basically you just need to retighten the X Y and Z belts. (X Y are easy, they're just two screws - Z is a little rough, gotta work on it from the bottom).
I've had my fair share of bad luck with my AD5M. It now sits in my garage not being used. I will crack it open again soon and start using it for ABS, ASA, & PA-CF).
In the end though, just realize what you are buying (seriously) - A $200 printer. It's phenomenal for just that (a $200 printer that prints and goes).
But compared to the fancier ones? It just doesn't stand up, IMO.
