My reviews:
Given its open source; its endlessly hackable! Its not equipped with heatbed or dual extruders from the start but You can add it Yourselves! - That what I like with Prusa i3
Fairly easy to start using. The firmware is very adequate to the printer. Very good quality of the prints, even when printing at 0.3mm.
Good documentation , good and colored design , good support.
The Prusa i3 Hephestos is a very good printer to start on 3D printing at a low budget, it's easy to upgrade and maintain. I highly recommend this printer.
