Prusa. Made in Europe, from quality components (or buy it as a kit from them and build it yourself, which is a really fantastic experience). Hardware is repairable and upgradable and the firmware is open source.

But they cost more than Bambu. Most Chinese things tend to cost less than alternatives, for obvious reasons.

Note that Prusa recently opened a US-based factory according to their blog, so in addition to EU-made they also got US-made going.

As a big fan of the company I'm hoping this will make them price-competitive to Bambu (or even considerably cheaper) while the tariffs rage. I'm not a fan of the tariffs, but if it gives a boost to the Core ONE launch, welp ... good for them.

For those of us in Latin America, Prusa being US-made makes no difference price-wise. Chinese is cheaper.
