CNC3018 - avoid?

[Lol999]

Hi lee and thanks for the reply. I'm a bit conflicted as to which model to get, either 3018 or 3018 Pro. I like the idea of increased rigidity of the Pro version.
Looking at some of the flaws in production coming through (typical Chinese mass production to a price I'm afraid) and some of the traumas reported by the members of the FB group I wonder at times if I need the hassle!

I definitely won't be getting the MX3 as I can't afford Mach 3 and don't like DrufelCNC where apparently users are experiencing problems with the MX3.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anything about the £300-400 mark that will work with Win10 and again have hassles.

The Sainsmart version sells for £225 in the UK (3018 Pro) and the Vogvigo 3018 Pro is £180 off Amazon, so tbh I'm fairly convinced to go for the Vogvigo since it has the Amazon name to resolve any difficulties.
