I suggest looking up videos on Youtube and getting the most popular printer. You'll have so.many frustrating problems that it will be 1000x easier if you have a lot of resources to look. I bought a cheap chinese printer and regreted every second. Get the the one with most troubleshooting resorces
Ender creality 3(?) should be pretty cheap and is really popular
Fwiw, I don't recommend an ender. Admittedly it's capable of great things, but certainly not out of the box.
Although it's not a huge selection, the best printer I've used in terms of ease and quality is the FLSun Q5. Prints great out of the box, auto-levels, easy to repair, plus it's a delta (which are just magical to watch).
ELEGOO Neptune 4
works from the day 1, both PLA and ABS+ and it plays nice with Cura.
