Topic: Is it worth?!

Hello peps,

I've been reading this forum for a quite some time now but today is the day for my 1st post here. wink

So... Quick back story before I get to the point.
I've bought daVinci Jr year ago or so, had few prints and then realised that it uses proprietary filaments - so I've returned the machine.
Then I've bought chinese kit printer of eBay - awful experience to say the least. In a month time it was sold on eBay.
I did some extra research and bought Tevo machine, well... It was working much better than eBay cheapie but yeah, never got the same print quality as daVinci Jr.
(Looking at the printer choices you can clearly tell I'm on the tight budget.)

So now I've started to look at daVinci's again but all that filament hacking thing... Looks pain to say the least.

And then I came across this one...

What's your thought on this?! Is it worth - what do you think?!
I did liked daVinci print quality and "OpenSource'ness" of chinese machines... Do you think this might be a sweet spot?!

Thanks.


KM
