I have the 3+ and boy howdy am I tempted to get the upgrade kit for the 4 along with the multi-color add on. Does anyone have any insight into either kit? The additional colors sounds so cool. And I definitely want faster motors with smaller steps...

I have a 3s+ and a 4. As it stands right now my 3 has been much more reliable and is still my go to machine. I feel like the 4 still needs polishing. I have to fiddle with the Z offset here and there depending on my filament and the input shaping alpha is neat, but the finished product on the 3 with a 0.6 nozzle is much nice than my 4 with input shaping. Knowing what I know now I would rather have 2 well tuned 3s.

Very interesting to hear this perspective. Thank you.
