Not OP but recently I was in the market for a printer. I was looking at the Bambu P1S and Prusa MK4.

I’m all for open source and really wanted to support Prusa but the MK4 costs an extra $100 (more if you don’t build it yourself), doesn’t have an enclosure, and the MK4 has a 7-8 week lead time while the P1S ships next day

I’m not proud of it but I got the P1S

Yeah but the Prusa is made in Europe and the Bambulabs is made in China.

I'd happily spend an extra $100 to support a European country over china. Fuck china.

Yeahhhh, I ordered a MK4 kit back on May 2nd, it JUST shipped out on Wednesday.

I'm excited. I got the prusa as we have two MK3's at the lab I work at, so they're what I'm familiar with. I've got all of the parts for the Ikea Lack enclosure on order, I'll be making it as soon as I print up the parts.
