Prusa printers generally work reliably. And they're expensive - epople are willing to pay for that reliability. However, Prusa has been selling essentially 2017 technology for too long. Many customers are OK with this because 3D printing got to a decent point in 2017 and they don't need new frills. However, I think the inherent speed limit of the bed slinger design is going to start causing problems for them. Eventually people who just want a workhorse printer will also realize it's nice when the printer takes 60% of the time to produce the same output. Prusa hasn't demonstrated an ability to keep up with where the industry is going.
