The build stack has also been completely redesigned. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers. I look forward to using Cura at home, as I do at my public library's Maker Hub 3D printer lab. So, it's not a total disaster just a minor set back and a new life-lesson. It also has self leveling print plate and automatic z-axis setting. The new machine will work with any slicer software, including Cura and uses standard bulk filament. With the resulting sale, I'll buy an inexpensive kit from Amazon one that only requires 'some assembly'.
Luckily, I bought this paperweight on Craigslist for a pittance and am selling it there for twice what I paid for it.
You will not get 3 colors, but you will get a rock solid printer from good people who make them in the US for Ultimaker. Since you are in the US, contact fbrc8 and see if they have something in the same price range.
I have avoided anything proprietary for nearly 30 years. At the best, I could not justify twice the cost for almost half the weight of filament as well as the proprietary nature of the system. Those were my reasons for not getting that line (or family group) of printers.
