I’m thinking of getting the Bambu Labs P1S, anything that I should be aware of? Anybody got one? Thoughts?

    I don’t have one, but I have heard a lot and watched reviews.

    Great printer, fast printing, good quality, enclosed, already has filtration on the output, and most people seem to have almost no problems with them, a lot like a prusa.

    However, it is pretty loud, wastes a lot of filament when switching filaments, and has proprietary replacement parts to lock you into buying from them.

    Probably the best prebuilt consumer coreXY from what I hear, just don’t put it in a room where you sleep.

      I’m not here to defend them, but many consumables can be bought from third parties. There’s even an upcoming Revo nozzle adapter.

        That’s really interesting. I suppose it was only a matter of time before third parties made their own replacement parts for it

    I’ve got a P1P that has been upgraded to a P1S. Leave the door open or the lid off when printing PLA (especially if using an AMS).

    Heat creep related jams are a pain to fix.
