My first 3D printer was an Ender 3 Pro, and it was perfect and terrible at the same time.

Getting it to print reliably after a couple of modifications was honestly a miserable affair. And it was still very temperamental even when I knew what I was doing.

I ended up just buying a Prusa so I could just get things printed, and I love it.

So the bad of the Ender is that it hardly worked. The good was that it taught me all the pieces parts, how to troubleshoot, leveling, etc. I went from beginner to pro in a few months. If I only ever had the Prusa, I'm certain I wouldn't know near as much about printers.

Just my 2 sats :)
