I don't own one but I thought I should reply and say you don't actually need one if you have 3D files, there are websites like this one were you can pay to have stuff printed. If you only need a few things printed, its far cheaper but if your into production then by all means its worth the money.

I have one, but it's extruder is currently jammed and it's not very reliable even when it does work.

I have a Mendelmax printer. It's an open source project that my uncle did a bit of work on, it's made out of various parts you can buy online and a lot of 3D printed parts. At the time though it was the cheapest 3D printer you could get at $700.
