PrintrBot Simple (all metal) vs RoBo 3d printer

[hoho1197]

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum thing and hope you guys can help me decide.. I am going to purchase a new 3d printer soon and i just can't decide between Robo 3d printer and a Printrbot simple all metal (assembled) (which isn't out yet). I know that Robo has a bigger build volume in the same price range as the printrbot all metal but i am seriously not sure wether this printer is a reliable one. Which one do you think would need less tinkering. Which one is more reliable? Which one is easier to use? SO, as a customer, which one would you buy? (reasons plz :P) Really struggling to choose one plz help me decide! THX

I haven't used a Robo 3D, but I have heard they are very difficult to put together and get working.

This is one guy who just about gave up and took a slege hammer to his Robo 3d
