Not Prusa anyway. I spent weeks building it from the kit. I spent days calibrating it. I printed few parts. Never got perfect first layer, but it works more or less. Then I updated firmware month later and tried to recalibrate it. It crushed printing head into the table. I'm afraid to turn it on now. It's going to take another few days to remember what's it's all about, to read all the manuals and watch all the videos, to grease rods and so on. May be I'll do it one day.
I guess that some "industrial"-grade printers like Ultimaker should be better in that regard, but I'm not sure about that.
Not every 2D printer is good either. I have Epson printer which refused to print stuff after few months of downtime. I managed to recover it by doing some "cleaning nozzle" procedure, but I don't think it was guaranteed to work. Though it was my failure because I was hooked on this promise "buy ink not proprietary cartridge with chip". I'd better buy ordinary HP laser jet with proprietary cartridge instead, those inkjet printers are not well suited for my use-case (printing few pages once a year).
