My recommendation is to get a bamboo lab printer. These machines are leap ahead of any other. There is almost not tinkering at all they just work. There are a few non bamboo that get close if your budget is not enough.
AFA having the printer in your room, PLA is safe if you can stand the noise.
A Bambu printer might be too loud for a bedroom, and you're locking yourself to their proprietary cloud-based platform...
I have 5 printers. 2 monoprice, 2 reality abs Bambu. I have heard the argument is the proprietary concern. This printer is so amazing, fast reliable that it's a great tradeoff. I have not touched the other printers since getting the Bambu. The cloud bases was changed in the last firmware. You can use them locally now. The way I see it you can keep away from Bambu for open source but you are locked in printers that are slow and constant tinkering. But to each his own.
If you can now use it without connecting to the Internet, I partly retract my comment :)
