I'm thinking of entering this world for the first time, and I was wondering if there are any models that you feel you would particularly recommend, thanks to anyone who would like to share their experience!

My first printer was a I3 mega from anycubic and it tought me a lot about 3d printers. Even though I love my i3 mega I'd stil recommend a Bambu lab printer to newbies because of the reliability. I don't like Bambu lab as a company but right now it's hard to beat them reliability wise. Disclaimer: I've been out of the 3d printing community for some time and only speak for my own (outdated)experience.
