I recently bought one of these, and agree. Have I modded some things to reduce fan noise? Did I have to manually tram the X axis because the printer isn't built precisely enough for the built in method to work? Yes, but those are easy things to do and only really have to do them once, and it prints amazingly well and problem free considering the price.
Yea, manually adjusting the x axis and lubricating the bearings are mentioned as negatives for this printer in the buying guide that I linked, but those are very easily fixable "flaws" compared to other similarly priced printers.
I might've gone overboard with a few parts but I've spent €300 on upgrading my E3v2 to get it to a point where I'm happy with its performance
