No one here is going to like this, but just get the Bambu. I would get the P2S not the X2D, but that’s me.
Yes they are very Apple like, there’s all sorts of community hate, but blah blah blah, it’s still been the only plug and forget printer I’ve ever owned. Thing just sits on my workbench, no fuss no muss, it just belts out flawless prints print after print. I’ve been in this hobby for quite a while now, and I’m done screwing around with these things. If you enjoy that, great please continue, but especially for someone like a family member!? Bambu unless you want to be constantly hand holding the entire time. They really are the McDonalds of 3d printers, for better or worse.
