Pros & Cons
Pros
Lulzbot's service is top notch. No issues or problems.
D printing for home use is still in its infancy. I'm pretty new to 3d printing, and got into it because my significant other is an ambitious gift giver.
This one has so many expansion capabilities. To me this makes it well worth the extra money because i am using it to make prototypes. If you want a plug-and-play, buy the lulzbot mini. Head up to loveland and take one of their friday factory tours.
The manual is awesome and easy to understand. It's self-leveling, and self-cleaning, and really handles things much easier for the beginner. The community behind lulzbot is open source which has pros and cons. This is where the forum comes in.

I thought that the filament had to come out faster than it did and it would chew up the filament at the hobbler bolt

If you arent willing to spend some time learning the 3d printing process dont buy any 3d printer under 25k
