Re: Looking for a hassle-free 3D printer
I would also recommend the Lulzbot Mini. I bought it from amazon and 2 days later I was printing - no hassles at all. I have used it with PLA and ABS. ABS was very good for low impact FRC parts this season.

Print volume was a bit of an issue for all of the pulleys I was making this season... I would recommend the Taz 5 if you have the budget... it has 4x the print area of the mini (6x6 vs 12x12).
