+1 for prusa if you want to spend more and get something that just works with no fuss, if you're wanting to go cheap&cheerful an Ender 3 will be a good option as well if you don't mind the occasional bit of tinkering for about half the price, as it's probably one of the most supported printers by the community and newer ones come with Auto bed leveling and half of the fancy stuff you had to add on back in the day.
