RE: Core One owners regretting their purchase?
I have very large hands and somewhat arthritic. Trying to deal with the belts after they were properly routed was just too much for them and the tiny portion that hung out. Buy the material and rerouting and having enough my fingers could deal with worked well and that is fine. I don't think it would kill Prusa to add 10 or 20 more mm to the belts and instruct how to trim. Not much of an issue hanging out on the left side, but cannot run under the assembly on the right. My 2c
I am not fat and happy!! Loading the proper config files in Slicer instead of trying to fine tune has resolved 90% of the problems! My recommendations to all having problems with printing!!
Thank all. I am a convert!!
RE: Core One owners regretting their purchase?
@mccluskey1, I take it that your post above was more to vent than to seek specific troubleshooting help. If you want to tackle the latter, this forum can be quite helpful. But you would need to take a more systematic approach, give us more details about the issues you are facing, and try the suggested countermeasures one by one. From your post above, your mindset regarding the printer seems to be like the cat in your avatar picture, which is not a good starting point for troubleshooting. 😉
Feel free to add to one of the existing threads in the "Assembly and first prints troubleshooting" or "Hardware, firmware and software help" sections, or open a new thread if you don't find your issue discussed in one of those.

Hi @mccluskey1 -- it looks like the moderators just released two update posts from you (just above) which were not visible yet when I wrote my prior post. Great news! So you can disregard my post above. Thank you for the updates, and have fun with your Core One!

Glad that it worked. It's a bit of an uphill battle as a first printer.
One comment regarding moisture: A dry box and desiccant is not effective at drying filament. It will only keep it dry. The problem here is that the movement speed of water in the plastic increases strongly with temperature (diffusion process - exponential increase with T). Also, lack of airflow makes it worse.
