I'm just getting into 3d printing and I'm looking for some recommendations. My budget is $400 and I've narrowed it down to the sv06+ or the Ender-3 V3. I like that the print size is bigger on the sv06+ but all reviews point to the Ender, do you guys have any recommendations for me?

Also maybe the bambu a1? Or a1 mini? I don't like that the firmware isn't open source though.

I'm OK tinkering but just want some insight.

Thanks!

If you get the 4 pro, keep in mind it has auto bed leveling but if its uneven beyond the ability of the software it doesn't have bed screws. I've had to shim mine with foil to make it level Edit: I'm dumb i have the 3 pro sorry ;-;

The Neptune 4 and 4 Pro and 4 Max etc all have bed screws.

Weird, my neptune 4 pro just has metal spacers and no bed screws. Maybe they fixed it in a later release.

Edit: its the 3 pro my bad I'm dumb ;-;
