Anyone else had constant issues with the Prusa Core One?

I think I’m done with mine and arranging a return.

Pretty much every print has started with some kind of drama — mainly endless fiddling with belt tension using the app tuner to 'fix' 'Crash Detection'. Sunday was the breaking point: spent 40 minutes fighting collision detection errors before I just gave up and turned it off.

Feels like this unit just isn’t fit for purpose, and none of the suggested fixes have helped.

Curious if others have run into the same problems — did you find a workaround, or did you also call it quits?

It took me a few weeks of fiddling but now I have a near flawless printer and I'm happy with it. The belt tuning app works well (web version) once you get a routine down on how and when to pluck the belts. 

Was your printer pre-assembled or did you build it from a kit? Did you contact support?
