title: Laravel - When to use ->get()
body: <p>I'm confused as to when <code>-&gt;get()</code> in Laravel...</p>
  
  <p>E.G. <code>DB::table('users')-&gt;find(1)</code> doesn't need ->get() to retrieve the results, neither does <code>User::find(1)</code></p>
  
  <p>The laravel docs say "...execute the query using the get or first method..."</p>
  
  <p>I've read the Fluent Query Builder and Eloquent docs but don't understand when the usage of get() is required...</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the help <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/18zZo.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
