I bought the Creality Ender 3, then the Prusa Mini. Both will eventually print out excellent objects if you are patient enough.
I totally recommend the Prusa though, for the following reasons:
- Prusa has better safety features, making it much less likely that the printer will burst into flames. The Creality actually does not ship with key safety features, you have to flash in an update to make that happen.
- The Prusa has automatic bed levelling, which doesn’t sound like a big deal but is an epic hassle to do it all the time. The Prusa also has MESH levelling, which takes into account the warping of the print bed, which is impossible on an Ender.
