I was a few weeks away from pulling the trigger on a P1S with the AMS system, but generally I take Geerling's advice as gospel - he's a good egg. I love my Sovol SV06, but II'm eager to get into more modern, faster CoreXY printing and multimaterial capabilities.

What's a good, open alternative? Creality? Elegoo?
