3D printer suggestions (feddit.de)

Hi, I am totally new to 3D printing and want to have a printer. Budget is 400€. My background is computer science and programming and I want to be able to hack the device if I want but it should work fine OOTB (or with minimal effort). Which device would you guys suggest to me?

There is the Sovol SV07 for about 300€-ish. It comes with Klipper and should check all your boxes. I bought the SV06 Plus two months ago it works OK. You have to tighten all the screws and actually read the manual, but that's it. If you want a guaranteed problem free OOTB experience, you have to buy Prusa (top quality control and software) or Bambulab (not really hackable but runs well) for 600-800€.

I picked the SV06 Plus this past weekend as my first printer, so I'll be back here later this week probably with a host of questions or (hopefully) successes.

On paper it looks like a fantastic first 3D printer to experiment with a variety of filaments and get a feel for what I actually need from a 3D printer, but I guess we'll see.
