Will Wright’s take

Based on the specs and price

Great value

“Four colours built in, no extra box needed.”

Having four colours built into a $279 printer is clever, and the short filament path means less waste. It's an open bed slinger, so it's for colourful PLA, not tough parts. One of the cheapest ways to start in multi-colour.
