I got the DIY kit Prusa MK3S+ a few years ago during covid, and it has been a workhorse. I love it, but I also don't have experience with many other 3d printers. I worked a bit with them in like the early 2010s but things have changed so much, so I don't know what to compare it to.

    I really want the DIY kit. How was your experience actually building it?

    I loved it, but there was one particular part that wasn't clear in the instructions so I had to do some research. There were tons of threads about that one step but I assume they've fixed it from 5 years ago.

    Same, an ex and I were early Cupcake CNC adopters, but then I didn't touch a 3D printer for a decade. When I got back into it the Prusa MK3S+ was the obvious choice for DIY/FOSS lineage, that thing is not fancy but it sure is a tank.
