You can't beat the Ender 3 for the price. Before it was released in 2018, the next closest 3D Printer (cost wise) was the Anet A8, an absolute steaming hunk of garbage. The frame was made out of acrylic, it had half a dozen severe safety problems that started several house fires, etc. The Ender 3 isn't perfect by any stretch, but it's a far cry better than that.
However, the generic China power supply that Creality sends is crap. It's not properly grounded and it can lead to electrical shorts. It's strongly advised to either ground it (videos on Youtube) or replace it with something reputable like a Meanwell.
