I bought my first 3d printer about a year ago and it quickly turned into one of the best things I've ever bought.
If you're at all interested in making things at home, there's almost no reason not to own a 3D printer.
I recently replaced the no-brand i3 clone that I initially bought with an Anycubic i3 Mega, and am very happy with the new machine. It's nice and rigid, easy to use, prints stick to the bed well while printing and pop off easily after printing. And all for less than £300.
As you said, the hardest part about it all is learning the CAD software.
