The Cetus Mk3 delux could also be an option if you like the ender 2.
That definitely seems like a really clean and compact design. It seems like there's not an official place to purchase one though, maybe because of the newest model or something? Resellers seem to be the only options.
They released the Cetus 2 (interesting printer) this year meaning they probably stopped the production on the Cetus 1. Tiertime must have shipped dozens of them as they are often available on the used market, which is not surprising as it is a great printer and they delivered a popular printer before with the Up mini (2013?; great for ABS on a budget back then).
One aspect that sets the Cetus 1 apart from other budget printers is that it used high-quality parts for the motion system (e.g. genuine Gates GT2 belts and good linear rails). There are downsides to it like the belt z-axis dropping when powered down. In later revisions, they added a break for the z-axis to stop this.
