Printer Recommendations for my boyfriend

I have had an amazing experience with my AnyCubic Kobra X. The print quality absolutely amazed me coming from an older Ender clone. Also having the larger bed was surprisingly helpful. Going from 220 to 260 mm make a huge improvement. My wife also loves using the app, she can just browse the library and start a print. The only issues I have had are that the print head is a bit on the complicated side when you do need to service it. And soft TPU needs to be fed in slot 2 with a short guide tube. Issues 1 and 2 tend to go together. I have only needed to mess with the head from not feeding TPU correctly.

Did Kobra X humiliate Bambulab A1? The truth nobody talks about.

The Kobra X is presented as a robust and cost-effective printer, especially in Brazil, offering a larger print area and more control over the printing process, making it ideal for commercial production and users who want to deeply understand 3D printing.

Am I looking for a printer that doesn't exist?

Kobra X was the first recommendation I came across online and the first printer I looked at when I started considering getting one. I decided to look for other options because a lot of people talking shit about Anycubic, how they keep releasing new printers and abandoning old ones, how hard to disasemble the printhead is, how getting parts for their printers is impossible after a year, how they keep having issues with them, spending more time fixing them than printing and regret getting one, etc, etc. It looks great on paper and in reviews but tbh the posts really scared me off the brand, still would be funny if after days of research I got the first printer I took a look at ;P

Anycubic Kobra X - Deep Dive 1 - Job Generation, Camera Quality, Benchy Comparison, and TPU Results!

The Kobra X demonstrates strong performance in speed benchies and TPU printing, often outperforming the S1 and matching the A1, despite some minor camera quality issues.
