However, if you have a more polished and elegant solution (but not necessarily higher print quality) then go with Bambu.
I got one from FB marketplace a year ago. I feel like it's a p1p clone in many ways, definitely in form factor, coreXY, speed and appearance. The quality is pretty good and it's so much faster than my Ender 3. I doubt it's as polished as an experience as the p1p but I didn't mind as I was used to having to fix / upgrade my ender 3. I had a great experience with CS actually. The used unit I got from FB had a broken screen and cable, and the CS rep was able to send a replacement screen and ribbon cable for free.
Also, the AD5M uses a proprietary hotend, but if you look around you can find 3rd party replacements (~$10) that use standard replaceable nozzles.

My experience was great. I emailed, got reached out, got instructions on what to do next. That didn't work, so sent me warranty parts. It took a while I will admit, but they never ghosted me.
Nonetheless, I wouldn't keep my AD5m stock...
Aftermarket Nozzles are a must (stock nozzles are expensive, and not interchangable), aftermarket plates are highly reccomended (It's a fun printer, get some FUN plates!). I dont think you'll never need to get the enclosure kit. It doesn't seal well, it pops the magnets out all the time (very annoying), and makes the printer more fragile (it's a task to move with the enclosure kit - it's a cool, but i feel a fairly poor design).

You can also find the original hotends on AliExpress for $17 apiece. I picked up the whole set (.25, .4, .6, and .8) for less than $70.
