Prusa or Bambu? (lemmy.world)

I have enjoyed my Ender 3v2 but my extruder and hot end are acting up and I am ready for a more reliable printer. I like the simplicity of Bambu but it seems to come at the cost of customization. Prusa seems to be more open and extendable, but at the cost of increased complexity. What would you recommend?

Go ahead and mansplain voron to me lol...

Of course voron is just a standard design, but in order to be comparable at all, and I mean even to be in the same discussion, to prusa/bambu it has to be a full kit including every single part, only needing assembly.

Sure you can build a voron for cheaper if you spends months searching for deals, suppliers, aliexpress parts, and printing everything yourself.

I will admit, I haven't heard of formbot, but that is quite possibly the best deal on a voron kit I have ever seen! Even paying an extra 200-300 for the printed parts, depending on supplier, that comes out to <1k€. That is a too good to be true deal. I will maybe have to buy one myself!
