That's fair enough and you clearly have far more experience than me however we're all prone to bias built on our own or perceived experience.
Well, I'm the third contributor to this thread to say avoid Creality based on actual experience, which should be pretty damming. Go and read on other forums and you'll find plenty of people saying the same thing.
Sure some people will get a good one, some will also have lower expectations or won't find out how bad Creality's support is until something goes wrong and they're left with a paper weight.
A couple of examples;
Most Creality bed slingers have an open Y axis belt. This makes it easy for detritus to fall into the belt cavity which in turn causes problems, you'll have to this recognise yourself. If you need to take it apart to clean it there are no instructions on how much or little to tighten the belt.
On a Bambu that belt is hidden below a cover. If it detects an issue with belt tightness you get a warning and a link to explain exactly how to adjust the belt. Not that I've ever had this issue anyway.
On the CR10SE a lot is made in their publicity of the ability to buy and add on their camera that in addition to giving a live view can spot problems and terminate printing. Great idea when/if it works.
BUT as soon as you have any issues with the printer support ask you if you have the camera installed. If you have you're told to remove it as it shouldn't be connected when starting printing
and it's only a beta feature only. WTF ?
I could go on, but I'm shot of it now and happy to see the back of it. Just annoyed at the loss and huge wastes of time trying to sort it out.
