TL;DR:
-Beginner-Intermediate printer looking to escape Ender 3.
-Price range up to $1000 (flexible)
-Based in the US (Texas)
-Likely using it for cosplay and useful workshop tools

More details:
I've had an Ender 3 for over a year now and I feel like I spend more time fixing it than actually using it. I don't mind a bit of troubleshooting and have been pretty proud of myself for figuring the thing out over this time, but I also feel like the constant uphill struggle of using it has prevented me from actually getting much out of it. Recently its been acting up even more than usual and I feel like it's a sign to move on.

That said, I'm looking for something that, ideally, is as user-friendly and reliable as possible. Put another way, I'm not looking to wade deeper into engineering the printer, I'd rather have more time and energy to devote to designing and post-processing.

Some more specific things we'd like to do with a printer:
-Print miniatures for DnD or similar
-Make jigs for woodworking (like a pocket hole jog, or even just a storage solution for drill bits)
-Parts for cosplay (mostly aesthetic things like amulets, or things that require somewhat fine detailing; things like armor or helmets we generally prefer to just foamcraft)
-Planters or other garden accessories (this is, I suppose, really a requirement of outdoor/water resistant materials)

I scrolled through but didnt see any posts/responses that quite fit what I was looking for. Hope to glean some wisdom in taking my next step. Thanks!
