I have 3d printed for decades but yes Bambu has made it easy and I like it to an extent. And the X1C want even my most expensive printer but it was by far the one that I probably printed the most with. Because it just worked.
Comment on Choosing my first printer is driving me mad.
Zikeji@programming.dev 1 month agoAs much as I’m worried about Bambu doing a rug pull (and they already have to a certain extent), my P1S is my 5th 3d printer, but my first casual one. I can leave it unused for 6 months, then just print something with no warning and first print success.

It’s the same for my old QQS-pro though. Even after some mods, it still just works. Upgrades are clear but not necessary.

I guess I might have to bite that bullet, I can’t help being attracted to newer models and cheap alternatives but the P1S with AMS would be in budget and then I have Bambu…

I think of the Bambu P1S as the inexpensive alternative to the Bambu X1C or a comparable printer from Prusa, at least in terms of print consistency and ease of use.
My Bambu was my fourth 3D printer (second FDM printer) and it took 3D printing from a frustrating, time consuming hobby to just a thing I do to enable other hobbies. I don’t have to spend time tweaking settings to get a decent print, because the default settings are already good enough. Instead, I can focus on designing models or working with finished prints.

It’s a lot of printer for the money and I’m sure you’ll be happy with it.
