I started with a Creality CR10S Pro and Simplify 3D. After countless Nickle and dime updates to printer and still unreliable, I almost just quit altogether. Then I bought a Prusa, assembled it and it worked, and worked and worked. I didnt use it for almost 6 months, turned it on and perfect prints, no issues. I got excited and got back on the CR10s Pro, more updates, failed boards 3 in all, failed thermos, failed SD card readers, just constant glitches. I almost threw it away. I finally have it working about 85% reliable now. I will never buy another Creality product. In the meantime I purchased another Prusa. I use both Prusaslicer and Simplify 3D V5. I use Tinkercadd and am slowly learning Fusion 360 free version. I print hobby parts and some parts for my business if they are no longer produced. Still Learning. I'm saving up for my next printer. Looking at a Bambu or Stacker S4. It is an addiction.
