    I’ve been thinking about upgrading my MK3. It was a hard choice between Prusa and bamboo. This makes the choice a bit easier.

      The total cost of the upgrades to go from MK3S>MK4>CORE One is the same or greater than just buying a new kit. It’s currently $1-200 more than a Bambu P1S with AMS due to the black Friday sale, which they frequently have on sale for this price. I really do like the concept of continually upgrading your printer to the latest and gratest, but it’s not actually that economical. And add to all that, you’ll basically end up with a new printer and most of the parts of a second so why not just have 2 for the same cost.
