> I have never seen a report of a fire with a Prusa.

Tbf, that really depends on the market share. In the interwebs, I've read a total of 3 - 5 reports of printers catching fire. Now, if 20% of the 3D printers are Prusas, then the rest are chinese ones, which come all with the same bad components. There is not much surprise here, at least for me.

Despite from that, the groups I know usually go like "Yeah, get a CoreXY printer instead. Moving the printbed constantly in XY direction isn't a good idea."

I agree it is hard to judge based on anecdotes, but we know Enders have had specific issues that increase fire risk. E.g. thermal runaway protection disabled by default, XT60 connectors with bad connections, defective MOSFETs.

I think, but cannot prove, that Prusa's got a fairly high percent of this broader segment of the market.
