  • I had similar requirements, and I was choosing between Prusa and Bambu Lab. In the end I chose a Prusa Core One. Here are my subjective reasons for choosing Prusa:

    • It’s open (mostly) and hackable
    • It’s proven and reliable, they use their own printers for production
    • they make the slicer which bambu studio and others are based on
    • it’s European
    • Great support
    • Upgrade kits for printers

    A few cons of Prusa printers I’m aware of:

    • expensive
    • slower to innovate
    • upgrade kit may cost close to the price of a new printer

    Prusa is probably not the best value but as far as I know it is the only really open choice for a high quality printer. Feel free to correct me.
