A1 3D Printer

The Bambu Lab A1 has been a great 3D printer so far. Setup was quick and straightforward, and I was printing not long after unboxing. The printer feels very well engineered and the overall build quality is solid. However, if you want to print multiple colors, it is very unlikely to get your hands on the AMS Lite

The Bambu Lab A1 has been a workhorse in my setup. After putting significant time into various projects, from functional prints to detailed models, I have a clear picture of where this machine stands for both hobbyists and power users. Performance and Reliability The print quality remains consistent even after extensive use. The setup is straightforward, and the active flow rate compensation ensures that layers stay smooth without constant manual calibration. It handles intricate geometries with ease, which is a testament to its motion control system. Long-Term Durability With over 1500 hours printing on it, I am still really liking it. The machine has held up remarkably well under heavy workloads. While I have encountered minor material compatibility warnings in the past, the hardware itself is resilient and continues to deliver reliable results day after day. Future Outlook While the A1 is an incredible entry and mid-level machine, there are limitations when it comes to high-temperature materials or specific enclosure-dependent prints. Because of this, I am looking at upgrading to the H2C at some point in the future to expand my capabilities. Final Verdict If you want a printer that just works, the A1 is a top contender. It is a reliable tool for anyone looking to get serious about 3D printing without the constant headache of troubleshooting hardware failures.

Ive bought a lot of 3d printers this is the Cadillac of 3d printing. There is a learning curve to setting up with computer but when it’s done it’s plug and play. I’ve had zero failed prints. Zero bed level issues zero print sticking to bed issues. Easy to remove print from bed. Beginners buy this you will not be sorry.

Have printed about 320 hours worth. Super user friendly and easy to use. Perfect for someone who is new to the hobby. Time lapse camera does suck.

I don’t like to give detailed negative reviews. But, this time, a. The nozzle is not ‘quick swap’ as advertised. Their instructional video shows that the hot end blower fan should be removed, plus cycles of heating and cooling the nozzle. b. The speed in not ‘high speed’ as advertised. I have used several high speed printers (usually advertised as ‘up to 600 mm/sec’) The speed of this printer is consistent with cheaper ones. Using the ‘sport’ and ‘ludicrous’ speed options on the printer itself, resulted in less defined edges and overall loss of quality. c. I lost one load of models on one printer because it stopped in the middle of printing, and the screen was unresponsive. d. I lost two loads of models on another printer because it stopped in the middle of printing, and the screen showed that the print was completed. The above was all despite several cycles of full self check. However, I was using the printers @ 23 hours a day, 7 days a week. I guess this heavy load was part of the problem. The positive points, eg, very quiet motors, ease of loading, and overall quality of prints at the slower speeds do not make up for the above negatives. Sorry Bambu Lab.

I love this printer. I have other printers. Two Neptune printers were good but required a lot of effort to use. You have to know all about G code and use micro memory sticks to transfer the data between your computers and the printers. I do most of my printing with things I make from Tinkercad which is a lot of fun. So, you design something with Tinkerad click a few buttons to turn it into an STL file, open up the Bambu Studio program and drop the downloaded STL file on the work surface. All you have to do is select the type of filament you are using and tap the slice button and then the print button. I do all of this sitting in my lazy boy chair with a laptop. The only time you need to go to the printer is to turn it on and then to remove your printed object. I put my other printers out to pasture.

Best 3 d printer i have. I try others but this one worth every penny. Works brilliantly. Excellent quality in every print.

4 stars had to order multiple/get replacements because initial one out of the box had a failed extruder. Bambu software and printer is great quality and easy to use. I have a p1s because Bambu had massive sale and would definitely recommend the company to anyone looking for a 3d printer. Did have some problems with certain prints and can see the difference with quality of this vs my current printer, but this is definitely a fine printer and much better than ender. Only reason for the 1 star dock is because of extruder problems from factory/amazon shipping.

Great product! Arrived on time and worked like a charm. Best purchase of the year!:) I just wish I'd ordered the AMS with it!!!

Very satisfied, it's easy to use, assembly and a great app which there a lot of shared usefull model

Muy rápida, fácil de usar. De muy buena calidad.

Best printer I've ever owned. Fast, reliable, easy and looks great too. Better than the creality alternatives

Es la mejor impresora abierta que puedes comprar, es súper fácil de montar prácticamente la sacas de su caja y la conectas, la calidad de impresión es impecable y es súper rápida y muy poco ruidosa, la puedas controlar desde su app y mandar a imprimir y vigilar la impresión desde esta!!! Súper recomendada PD: yo la tengo desde ya casi un año y no me ha dado ningún fallo o problema.
