K40 Laser Set on Fire - Need new machine!

[noney]

So yesterday, my K40 laser machine set on fire and almost burnt my work space down. Not sure how it happened but it is what it is.

Long story short, I need to buy a new machine but want to steer clear of the K40 or similar machines (dangerous, death machines) for the above reason. I've also taken the opportunity to "upgrade" to a bigger and more powerful machine. I primarily cut MDF and acrylic, both at 3mm. I would probably want to cut thicker MDF if I had a more powerful machine.

Right now I am looking at the following machines, has anyone used any of these and can give any advice?

Vevor 60w 700x500 mm - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07WTVSY..._lUfYDb8VQSQD2
Unbranded(?) 80w 700x500 - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153448820121

My budget is a bit low, £2,000 - £3,000, which is about $3,900USD

Any advice will be appreciated

HI
WE HAVE 2 OF THOSE
they are the same machines just different colours and powers
go for the 80w
it will need some tweaking out of the box
