On the low price side, creality ender 3 can be had for about 200. But it may be a nuisance to deal with leveling or when stuff breaks down

If you don't care about full open source, or your prints running through Chinese cloud services then Bambu Labs makes some great offerings that "Just work". I'd recommend the A1 Combo multicolor. It runs about 500. The mini version with smaller build plate is cheaper but you'll wish you got the full size A1 soon enough.

If you don't care about price, plan to use it yourself and want more focus on quality and speed id recommend the Prusa MK4S at about 1000.

There's plenty of choices on the market, but these are some that will come up often.

You may also want to budget for...

- filament (pla, petg, different colors)

- a rack or some place to store the filament

- filament dryers (60-200 for 2 to 4 rolls at a time)

- surge protectors and/or UPS

- sorting bins for waste plastic and silicon molds (if you plan to recycle or upcycle)

- ample size desk or workbench to hold it and it's accessories
