    New to 3D Printing - Need Help Choosing a Printer

    So I am new to 3D printing and I am looking to get myself a 3D printer. I am a college student so my budget is $400 and I am looking for something that will work "out of the box." I know I will have to end up doing maintenance and making modifications, but I am looking for something that will at least run and has good review. I have narrowed down my options to:

    Smartrapcore ALU Basic Kit http://smartfriendz.com/en/home/70-s...462281828.html
    I am leaning toward this one because of the price and greater upgrade potential.

    Wanhao Duplicator i3 http://wanhaousa.com/products/duplicator-i3-steel-frame

    Any help, advice, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Are there any benefits to getting a Prusa i3 based printer over a corexy? What are the main differences or pros and cons of each one?
