I'm shopping for my first printer, I don't have any experience with 3d printing but I'm vaguely familiar with the whole process and I understand there will be a learning curve and I'm looking forward to that part.

I'm leaning towards the Creality S1 Pro because I remember the huge hub-bub about the Ender 3 when it first came out and it seems like everyone and their brother suggests it as a good first printer but then when I read reviews it seems kinda janky and I'm an adult with a job so I don't mind fussing a little but I don't want to fuss a lot.

I picked the S1 Pro because I think it has an auto-leveling print surface and the name recognition from the previously mentioned Ender 3, but when I try to research other printers I'm completely overwhelmed by the options.
