As long as it feels good that you want to play it I'd say that's the main thing!
I recently re-bought the first guitar I ever owned (an absolute piece of shit Stagg that I knew was going to be shit when I bought it), and honestly it's pretty much fine to play. Not as refined as the Steinberger (also not a particular fancy model) but once the strings were changed and the action sorted it was perfectly fine. Weight distribution was very head-heavy though.
Main thing I'd say is to keep it somewhere that you're likely to pick it up and noodle around everyday. Helps that it's probably not something you're incredibly precious about and keeping it in some hermetically sealed case.

My SG has arrived 🥳
It’s definitely at the lower end of Epiphones offerings as it weighs considerably less than I was expecting and it’s almost certainly a thin veneer over whatever timber was laying around.
No matter, neck feels a nice shape, might lower the action a smidge but for the money I certainly have no complaints.
