Is the Bambu Lab P1S worth it - A 2 month review 

This is the video I was waiting for. The fact that you had so little failures in the time you were using it and have the confidence to start it when you’re not even able to check it confirms this is the printer for me. Thank you 😊

Great review. It matches pretty close to my expectation of it and what it actually gave me. I bought my P1S 4 months ago and the AMS 2 weeks later. After living with a bed slinger with much frustration for 3 years all I can say about this printer is that does what I ask out of it and it does it quite well. I don't use it to print pretty little statues or trinkets. I use it to print parts for electronic projects I work on that need custom enclosures with PCB mounts or other things like replacement parts for home devices to mounting brackets for curtain rods. This printer has never let me down. So far, I have no regrets on the purchase and if needed, would buy another.

Thank you for the great product review. I honestly can’t stand it when a reviewer just says all positive things about a product. Your review is much better in covering areas that are not mentioned in the typical marketing BS

Great review, covers things from many angles. When they work well, the mechanicals are fantastic, but I think the real thing they're making a huge breakthrough on is user experience. Hopefully, once the initial speed race wears off, more companies will focus on that part, as that's what's holding back wider adoption of 3d printers.

So far I love mine. I was very new to 3D prints when I bought it and within 30 mins of FedEx delivering it I had a Benchy done and in my hands. I think having an out of the box ready to go printer will allow even rookies buy this over others.

An excellent summary! Thanks for sharing!

This looks like an AMAZING printer! If I had the $ I would have seriously considered this!

Great review!

Nice video of yours. One thing i want to say after watching. If your Benchy/prints still look like that one in the video you maybe should change your filament brand or store it in another way. It appears that your filament is way to wet to get a proper print. Keep up the good work

I have had my p1s for three months and love it. I think it has only been switched off for half a day during that time as I keep finding stuff to print. Had a few print failures at the beginning but that was due to me learning. Never 3d printed before and found using the p1s easy to use.

Great review! I’ve noticed that the only time my prints fail now is when I mess with ludicrous speed on the app 😂 I don’t even count that as a failure, more user flying too close to the sun 😂😂

Hey Wraio Video :P Do you think the Carbon Rod gonna last a fair amount of time before it needs replacing?

thanks for sharing

With the A1 with AMS lite now out, which would you say is the better option? Yes the A1 provide multi color, but no ABS/ASA etc

I've just got my p1s a few days ago. And no doubts it is a great thing, especially compare to cheap reprap printers. However I found a few downsides which weren't mentioned by any reviewers which I had watched before: 1. Smell - printer itself has very strong unpleasant plastic smell (or grease or electronic compound smell). I hope that it will disappear sometime later... 2. Noise - some bloggers complained about cooler's noise, but non of them told, that on a such high speeds printer creates quite strong mechanical noise and vibration. You can of course eliminate it by lowering speed, but it defeats whole idea of high speed print.

You're the only person who mentioned that they could just stop prints of firearm parts, funny cause as i was watching other vidoes on the cloud and security concerns my head kept going to "banned prints" and how they could just implement that with a software update and then lock the printer down. Hopefully this never happens but it is a scary idea.

How did you solve the "Issues with the Bambu Labs X 1 Carbon" see this video

Bambu has had local mode forever, how is the bambu cloud even a risk if you know what you are doing?

So... If it's constantly uploading images to the cloud... does that mean it requires an internet connection to print? If your internet goes out... the printer would stop? If that's not the case, I would just disconnect it from the internet, to protect my privacy.

Considering how little maintenance of bamboo print needs, I wouldn’t say squeaking after two months is problem it may be amazing and bamboo may have sold most of the problems that 3-D printing encompasses, but they still need maintenance like every other 3-D printer

gd video. mines supposed to be here in a couple days..

Thanks

6:45 This can be avoided by printing in LAN-mode or using the SD-card right?

How is the noise on different print speeds?

What printer do you recommend if you perfer streanth over speed under $300

it seems quiet. Is it quiet enough to be in a bedroom? Even if I have to slow is down?

The question is, how do you deal with the fact all BambuLab printers are not capable of printing PLA prints without VFAs? This was even verified with their support. If the prints are all riddled with surface artifacts why waste money on it. After just 10 months on my printer the entire X-Gantry needed to be replaced, as per BambuLab. The carbon rails wear out.

Nice

when was the P1S released?

looking to get this printer, but do you need to buy the ams system

Yes! The end.

Bambulab is first to have nozzle cleaner, how stupid all those other companies have been not having one ? But still charging 12000Eur etc?

I also have the squeaking problem even though my printer is one week old. Do you think the squeaky sound affects print quality?

So we can expect P2S soon?

Your worry is unnecessary. P1S can print without network, as long as you copy the file to the TF card. However, there may be less functionality.

The number one complaint Prusa fanatics have against the P1S is Bambu's appoach to privacy and security. I don't understand why bambulab wants to die on this hill, but if they make a COMPLETELY offline system that is still user friendly, they'd absolutely dominate the market. They have completely taken themselves out of contention for a lot of businesses and basically ALL government customers with their current asinine approach. This seems to be a common trope with a lot of small businesses. They come out of a stellar product that really shakes up the market, but it comes to market with some irritating flaw or quirk that has people considering just sticking with the tried and true whatever. Do these companies hate money? If not, then it makes it seems like their cloud approach is in some way lining their pockets. Thus, we're back again to the fear that this is just a ploy to harvest and market user data.

Mine worked great for 3 months, then everything went wrong. I should have bought the A1 mini.

Asking why it produces poop. Not an ams user, are you? :-D it's perfectly sensible for me why it does it with ams, but sure, could be avoided without ams I also have my printer off with a smart plug to prevent night printing incidents

* *crawls out from under my rock* * 🙈🙉🙊

80% print failure on Bambu P1S.

The more poop the faster u buy more

Dont buy the Bambu P1S. Nothing but a constant hassle.

What he’s not paid to tell you is: All the parts in your Brand New Bambu Printer are not under warranty. So if your new Bambu arrives with any broken parts you must pay for them. Even if they never worked. And When you call about your broken parts customer service support with Bambu is just like customer service support at any Chinese food restaurant
