I got the 5 a few years back. Great printer but I didn't like the bounce in the platform so I printed stabilizers. Didn't like the placement of the extruder moved it up top. Added the HeroMe. Still didn't like the bounce of the plate so added a second z-axis. Added direct drive extruder. Linear rails. SKR mini. AC bed heater. Klipper. Mosquito Magnum. Prolly some other stuff. About the only original parts are the frame. I used it to learn how to print. And I printed some great stuff along the way. But it's good now. I pretty much just print. But I really like that Bondtech LGX. Might have to try that out. :-D
