there are many factors you should take into account before making any decision:

?, your purpose : why you want to buy a 3D printer and what will you use it for? If you are going to print substantial objects , you may want to get a 3d printer that comes with a large printer bed. if you want to make multi-color objects, a dual-extruder or triple-extruder 3d printer is the one to go for.

2, your budget. prices for 3D printers vary greatly.

3, are you a novice or veteran in 3D printing? most budget 3D printers require manual leveling and assembly. if you do not have any technical background or sufficient knowledge about 3d printers, or simply want to avoid alll the trouble , you may want to raise your budget for a more advanced 3d printer.
