Agree 100%. My first printer was a cheap Kobra 2. I had a lot of problems with it and I’m not sure if it’s because of the printer or because I was changing settings without knowing what I was doing.

At any rate, I wanted something better and didn’t want anycubic, but Kobra 3 with AMS was only $299 at the time so I got one. It worked great. I started on some large printing projects and ended up getting a second one for $299 to spread the workload around.

I have about 600 hours on both and they’ve both been great. I have a Snapmaker U1 but I’m going to keep using the Kobra 3s for basic prints as long as they last.
