Check out any of the Ender 3 series of printers. They print good out of the box and can print even better with some light modification. The community is large if you ever need help and spare parts are easy to get.
My first was an E3P but I might not recommend it for folks not willing to spend time tinkering and tuning. Creality makes great printers and once they’re dialed in they put out great quality prints, but they most definitely don’t “just work” out of the box. Prepare to spend time and frustration making tweaks and adjustments to get it working just right.
I wouldn't say they "just work" out of the box but that they print pretty good in their out of the box configuration without having to resort to making modifications.
