The rails are cool to have but the frame they are mounted to is garbage. Buy an ender and get solid aluminum 2020 and 2040 extrusions.

Had one of these I decked out with mods. Complete junk. You are better off paying 10 bucks more for an ender 3. Better community support and maybe better quality printer.
