    I'm biased because I have a Leapfrog Creatr. From my experience with Leapfrog, they are a stable, well capitalised company and handled my order without too much drama. The 500 euro delivery cost were a bit hard to take but I'd say delivered, my dual extruder cost a shade under AU$3000. Don't forget, you'll have to pay GST and port charges when it's delivered (about $390).

    As you'll see from the pictures the machine is very nicely constructed and uses quality components. The electronics are classic RepRap and the machine uses standard 1.75mm ABS and PLA filament.

    You'd do well to stay away from the Stratasys machine, they pull a real "razors and razorblades" deal on their clients. I'm still experimenting with my Creatr but as you see I have produced some pretty decent items.
