yeah markforge have kinda taken a page out of carbon's book and priced thems elves out of the market for anyone but a large compabny with more money than sense.
So to start with - you NEED a printer with a heated and enclosed build volume. You also need a hi temp hotend that can run at 300c for extended periods and ideally a heated bed that will hit 120c
you haven't mentioned size of build volume.
As far as hassle free goes - it's fdm 3d printing - their is always hassle of one type or another. If nothing else you need to learn the ups and downs of each material.
If this is fora commercial venture, then I would suggest you look at something like the leapfrog bolt. idex (independant dual extruders) are going to be your friend for supports and mixed material prints.

Possibly my favouriter fdm printer to date.
Cheaper machines worth looking at:

Probably more about - but you won't get hassle free with the lower end price ranges :-)
qidi xplus also well worth a look, though you might need to upgrade the hotend: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JCKNQSZ/ref=emc_b_5_t
If build volume isn't a major issue then look at the latest qidi tech x pro: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076BLQWHY?tag=hidevour-20
