A while ago I had an Ender 3 Pro which I upgraded with a BL-Touch and self-printed parts. It worked great and was reliable but not something I would call plug and play.

Is there a clone that’s relatively plug and play? I don’t mind assembling but don’t want constant readjustments.

    Dude it’s not that serious.
    But lets compare:
    The price for a MK3S+ just by itself is 719€
    The Sovol SV-06 costs 228€

    Prusa constantly updates their stuff and it is often pushing the limits of the hardware. This has made every cut price clone obsolete by the time they come to market. This is a moving target. That is the business strategy to avoid clones trying to undercut Prusa.

    If I can get last years “flagship” for a fraction of the price I’m going to choose the Sovol.

      Asks for advice

      Is given a well thought out and thorough response

      “Dude it’s not that serious”

      ??? I think you meant “thanks for your input” but that’s a funny way to type it out.

        Hey, thank you for you input but I asked **specifically ** for a clone 🤓😐

        To say that all clones are trash and to only buy prusa is not really helping either.
