I tried a couple Davinci printers. They went back.

I considered the Printerbot. Seriously, I doubt it's more "difficult" than any other.

That said, I opted for a Creator Pro clone from Microcenter because of price. They no longer carry that one, so... another Creator Pro clone (from Monoprice) would hit your price point (http://www.monoprice.com/product?c_i...seq=1&format=2).

I'm sure there are many other possibilities...
