What about the print quality, I don’t mind speed
It's OK...nothing stellar or impressive, but acceptable and absolutely good enough for most light users, the one-sided Z-axis is not ideal.
~~But yeah, the speed is completely shit compared to other modern bedslingers.~~ edit: seems they managed to catch up to the cheaper competitors WRT speed, so they're on par with printers that cost less than half now.
The quality is whatever you print. The printer's quality is stellar.
I always say that if you want to print stuff, buy Prusa. If you want to tinker with the printer, buy something else.
Prusa is the Mercedes of 3d - premium price for a premium experience. At 100$ for a Mini, I would not hesitate even if I already have one.
