I couldn't be happier with my M2. That being said, I regularly prototype parts that push the limit of at least one, sometimes 2 axis of max build dimensions. I certainly wouldn't complain about a larger build volume. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'd much rather print a part as one piece. It saves me post processing time and arguably produces a stronger / better finish.

Photopolymer printers have build volumes pretty close to that old TOM and they're definitely the new hotness.

Might have something to do with expense: pouring a few hundred bucks of juice into the vat, even if it barely covers the bottom layer or three on a huge platform, would get old really fast.
