I don’t like them either but I am strongly considering getting one because all the reports that it consistently works out of the box without any kind of mods as I need to just send prints to it and get a good print out without any fiddling about every time
These days this is true of many other brands as well. The early days of your printer showing up as a kit full of bits and requiring you to spend as much time wrenching on it as using it are gone, unless you deliberately go and seek something like that out.
Qidi, Anycubic, Prusa, Creatality, and probably tons of others I can’t think of off the top of my head also make machines that are unbox-and-use.
They are really good machines for the price, and i will hold of the lock down update to the best of my ability. Next one ill probably build a voron or something that can print with high temperature.
It annoys me to no end just how prevalent Bambu is.

The problem is they make a really good printer at a really good price… But with them locking down their printers, I won’t be buying another.
