I'm not sure I would buy the 5M Pro for $356 vs the Elegoo for $330. Again, I like the FF and based on my experience it's a known good printer. However, the build area and size again.
The 220mm cube vs 255 is only going to occasionally matter. A nice thing about the 220mm size is the printer works with Ender 3 sized build plates. Lots of cheap options for textured plates.
If, however, you are on a tight budget, well it would be easy to suggest the 5M vs say a Bambu A1mini or just about any other sub $300 bed slinger. It's also generally a really good starter printer.
I will note that I had to update my factory firmware to print the test cube model that came with the printer. Not impressed with that. However, since the printer accepts both wired and wireless networking I just plugged the thing in for 10 minutes or so and it did the firmware update. Now I have no issues. If you aren't interested in materials that need an enclosure and money is tight, this is a really good printer value.
