I am ready to make the plunge into the world of 3D printing. I have been doing a lot of reading, including the buyers guide on this forum, and I have managed to find a few printers that I like and I am wondering if anyone is using one of these printers. If so, can you please offer some feedback.

CTC Bizer dual extruder - $500

Micro Center PowerSpec 3D Pro - $ 699

XYZ Da Vinci 1.0 - $499

I would like to keep things at no more than $500 and I do not really need the dual extruder but it is a nice plus. l would rather have better accuracy than a dual extruder. It appears that the CTC and PowerSpec are the same unit except for the case. The CTC is wood and the PowerSpec is plastic. I like the resolution on the CTC and PowerSpec, seems to be better than the Da Vinci. The Da Vinci seems to be more plug and play than the other units with what seems to be pretty good support but I have read some mixed reviews.

I am also open to suggestions on any other printers that fit my budget of about $500.

Any help would be very much appreciated as I take my first steps into the world of 3D printing.

Thanks advance!
