Need advice for a 3D printer for 200-250€ (lemmy.ml)

I want to buy a 3D printer for about 200-250€ but I'm unsure which one to get. There are printers that a lot of people recommend but others say they're a piece of garbage.

The ones I found so far are these:

Creality Ender 3 V3 SE - 182,94€
Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo - 199,00€
Sovol SV06 - 239,00€

There's also the open source firmware Klipper, which a lot people recommend but from what I understand, you need a Raspberry Pi for that. I do have a Pi 4 that I was planning to sell that I could use for that instead.

Would be great if some of you who know more than me could help me decide what to get.

I had the Ender 3 v2. Enjoyed it but never was able to get it dialed in and something would often go wrong. Taught me many things about 3d printing. There were many upgrades available, but ended up using that money to save for a Bambu Lab X1c.
