@julialuna@chaos.social From what I've heard, the Prusa Mini + Prusament is the cheapest "just works reliably" option. Significantly cheaper than the full-size Prusa, though with a smaller build volume. Some 500-600 EUR I think?

*Personally* I've been quite happy with my Sovol SV06, which is essentially a Prusa clone, and significantly cheaper (200-250 ish EUR). The only issue I've had with it is the auto-bed-levelling being weirdly off, which required a one-off fix of manually twisting the Z axes until it was level. It's been printing with perfect reliability since. But that's more than zero tinkering of course, and the overhang performance/cooling is not as good as that of a Prusa or Ender.

(Still need to e-mail their support about the levelling issue further, totally forgot about that, oops)
