So I finally got an opurtunity to get a 3D printer, and i want to buy a Voron. I found a V2.4 with 350mm build volume for 770€. Is it worth it? How reliable is a Voron? Have any of you got any experience? All input welcome.

(Edit) I forgot to clarify, the printer is new, not second-hand.

Does the 2.4 have auto z calibration? That is what really makes a "set and forget" machine when you switch nozzle sizes and such and it with auto adjust.

With my prusa MK3, I calibrate the z offset every time I switch filaments and recalibrate every time I switch nozzles which takes a lot of active time.

Mine does.

Probably most of the builds do. But you got to keep in mind, every Voron is unique. It is not a 100-a-day from the factory kind of product.
