no matter what you buy in that price range - tinkering will be required at some point.

the qidi's are usually pretty decent quality.
I think sometimes google just brings up negative posts for a laugh.

The only plug and play out of the box printer I know of is the monoprice mini delta.
I literally loaded filament pressed print and it printed a waving cat.
The cat is perfect every time, I'm trying to figure out what settings they used to slice it lol

The prusa mk3 is just over $900 - way out of the price range.
The mk2s is still $725.

Me I'd be inclined to stay with qidi but throw $69 at your budget and get the x-pro: https://www.amazon.com/QIDI-TECHNOLO...idi+3d+printer

There is no such thing as plug-n-play.
You WILL need to learn how to use a slicer.
You WILL need to learn about how different filaments behave in different environments
You WILL have problems with prints either not sticking or sticking too bloody much.
No matter what the website says - you WILL have calibration issues at some point (not my mini delta - yet).

3d printing is currently as much an art as a science.

The x-one 2 looks decent - small print volume, but at that price you get waht you pay for :-)
