Sovol sv08 is a voron based printer, not like a prusa at all. And voron as a project, might be a self build from kits, but are better than what you’ve listed as best of anything, in capability and in terms of open source.
oh, oops! i just assumed that the sv08 was a bigger version of the sv06, but it seems to be CoreXY. i’ll go quickly change that.
after a bit of searching, it seems that the SV06 is the prusa clone whereas the SV08 is a voron kit.
and yep, i should mention voron kits are very capable, good idea
added that the sv08 is a corexy voron kit, and I’ve also put voron at the top for its openness and capability!

Seconding kit Vorons. While they certainly aren’t the cheapest option, they aren’t that much more expensive than other higher end core XY machines. Fabreeko* has the 250/300mm Trident kit at 1.2k and 350mm 2.4 at 1.4k + an extra $150 or so for printed parts. Compared to the new Core One at between 950 - 1.2k or the X1C also at 1.2k you’re looking at an extra $150 to 350, but that also comes with build volume increases (both the Prusa and Bambu are at roughly 250 mm³). Definitely wouldn’t recommend them as a first printer, but Vorons are shining examples of what’s possible with open source (and they’re absolute workhorses too).
* Highly recommend them with glowing praise for being all around fantastic (they also run sales on the regular, though kit deals are usually reserved for special occasions like black Friday, or Clee day)

definitely will mention the capability of voron printers!
