The XY design is more stable than the i3, usually. But regarding the MK2 i3, the only advantage buying directly from Prusa at that price is it’s already built. It’s 3D printed parts along with off-the-shelf parts. The design is excellent. But it’s an open-sourced printer that anyone can download, print out and build. I’m not knocking the printer. It’s an awesome printer and I don’t have to own one to know. But there’s no difference in it and a $400 kit of the exact same printer bought elsewhere. I know that doesn’t apply for the OP since they are looking for an out-the-box solution. I just wanted to reply regarding it being the best printer you can buy today only because it’s coming directly from Prusa himself.
