So far I am happy with it, though I wouldn’t make another kit at least not without a drill.

I understand not enjoying the kit build process but I do want to encourage anyone considering buying a printer to get the kit. No matter what printer you get eventually you will have a problem and need to take it apart to figure out why, or to replace a part. And having that experience of building it will help so much with your confidence to fix it.
Yup no disagreement here. Happy I did it, don't want to do it again
The best part now though... If something breaks and you need to do some disassembly to fix it, you have the confidence to do it. Same goes for making any mods
