Prusa MK4S review
The workhorse. Load-cell first layers that essentially never fail, tool-free nozzle swaps, and a decade of parts availability behind it.
Best for: Long-term owners who value support and spare parts.

Specifications are the manufacturer's published figures. "Max speed" is a peak that no printer holds across a whole part, so use it for comparison and don't expect it in real print times.
