>is it a good printer for someone starting out in 3D printing?
I think it's a very good printer for someone starting out. The self levelling makes it very user friendly and it is incredibly forgiving because of it's tilt mechanism, in a way that other printers are not. You can get away with a lot more poor positioning and so on because of it.

>I've seen a few posters like the one above saying their FEP ripped and leaked into the machine
People who do this shit have left stuff on the build plate or left stuff in the vat, and then had the pressure mechanism of the build plate push whatever was left in the vat or on the plate into the FEP and punctured it. In short - user error.

>Honestly the only thing I don't like is the round edge on the tray. Makes pouring messy and always needs a wipe.
At least it has a pour spout but yeah I mean it does always need a little wipe but you're wiping it down anyway if you're cleaning out the vat.

I will shill this printer for hours the S4U is peak. Pic related, printed an Orca dropship with mine like it was nothing.
