I review 3D printers for a living and this is the one to get for beginners

AnyCubic Kobra

I've been reviewing 3D printers professionally since 2015, and before that, I'd been building them, admittedly with varying degrees of success. Over the years, I've had the privilege of testing a wide range of printers from a variety of manufacturers, and always have a small list of the best 3D Printers that I would readily recommend based on what you want to print, your aspirations and, of course, budget. 

If you're just coming to 3D printing, it's a great time to join the community, printer prices are relatively low, and the machines are feature packed. However, there are many machines out there and choosing the right one as your first can be daunting; however, for anyone looking to step into the world of 3D printing, there can be only one that stands out against all others that I would recommend as your first.
