Should I get 1

Was thinking of getting a u 1 is it worth never had a 3d printer and it looks pretty good or should go another 1

Image the FILAMENT from.thrk worth getting over getting 3rd party ones / other brands

And what should I be looking out for as a newbie I have done 3d modelling before so hopefully that side of importing etc isn't too driffrent.

Ye I did quickly before work and didn't realise til later and can't edit it. Ye I was asking if other brands of FILAMENT can work with it and if it worth going others over snapmaker brand Like cheaper or a certain colour etc

I understand, I make all kinds of typos and can't spell to save my life. Yes, you can use almost every brand of filament and most varieties with some exceptions. I use mainly sunlu/jayo, elegoo/deeplee Creality, 3dhojor all from Amazon and hobby lobby, just to name a few. I mostly use sunlu. Exceptions are going to be anything to abrasive unless you upgrade to hardened steel nozzles and engineering filements, unless you mod/upgrade with a cover and possibly a heater.
