Favorite laser brand - sub $1000

I’m researching getting a new laser for cutting and given that I want to use Lightburn with it, I thought to come here to ask. Purely from a customer satisfaction subjective POV – who is your favorite hardware manufacturer which works well with Lightburn?

To scope things a bit more, I’m most interested in:

  • Sub $1000
  • Does not need much fiddling once it’s working (I can handle anything – just don’t want to waste time)
  • Works well with LB
  • Had good customer service experience if you needed it
  • Good community

TIA!

My maker gear:

  • A few ender 3’s
  • Snapmaker A350 (my only laser)
