I'm just getting into 3d printing and I'm looking for some recommendations. My budget is $400 and I've narrowed it down to the sv06+ or the Ender-3 V3. I like that the print size is bigger on the sv06+ but all reviews point to the Ender, do you guys have any recommendations for me?

Also maybe the bambu a1? Or a1 mini? I don't like that the firmware isn't open source though.

I'm OK tinkering but just want some insight.

Thanks!

I don't use Bambu printers, but don't they use a modified version of gcode and still refuse to let anyone see the documentation?

Nope, they still use bog standard gCode, but they do have some custom commands for things that are unique to the printer
