It depends on the design of the printer. If it was built to use a glass plate that's where the bulk of success is going to be. Something like a Prusa or a Bambu - I don't even know how you'd put a glass plate on them - they're built for a heated build plate with a metal core that will suck tight to the magnets and has some sort of coating to give it proper adhesion and release.
Wally86 is right - the Bambu is full-on Easy Mode. The only drawback to that printer (aside from initial cost) is the "walled garden" ecosystem. It's built with their firmware, software,
frikkin' cloud infrastructure, and so on in mind. I run mine in LAN-only mode because I'm professionally paranoid (and I do non-zero patent work) and it's still miles more "click and forget" than a Prusa, but it doesn't have all the features.
