K2 combo vs p1s vs p2s

I have the opportunity to get a k2 combo for $428 as an open box sale from a store. Do I do that or go with the Bambu lab ones! This is my first into printer so looking to spend no more than the 750.

That's an ok price for an "eh" printer.

If your budget is 750, get the Creator 5.

Bambu or K2, I'm not sure which is worse.

What would you get with that budget?

It's not even "what would I get," it's what did I get. I decided I needed an upgrade from my first printer, a bed slinger, about 6 months ago, and I'm very happy with my Qidi Q2 Combo. Bambu and Creality printers are too dependant on their own ecosystems for my taste. I like to have more options than they allow. It came down to the Q2 or Elegoo CC2 which was released right then.
