Creality is trying so hard😭

It's clearly totally different: the purge wiper is on the right instead of the left and this one has an RGB light strip. /s But in all seriousness: we should value all competition, especially at this price point. The longer Bambu Lab doesn't corner the market, the longer we might be able to avoid to

A1 melting safety risk

TLDR: A component called a NTC thermistor on the AC board can overheat and catch fire. In some cases it melts through the bottom of the A1. 3D Musketeers have collected 70 reports of this problem. BambuLab remains silent on the issue. If you run a A1 please place it on a non-flammable surface.

This keeps happening in the same spot on my A1 what is the cause?

Do this Most importantly the part where you remove the hot end and tighten the screws that it shows. I had this happen every once in a while. I tightened those screws and it hasn't happened since.

What even is this machine?

Welcome to the reason why a lot of people recommend bambu labs. I went from an ender 3v2 to an a1 mini, then an a1 combo, then a p2s and now the x2d. I think I have a problem 😅 One thing though, youll want to print those desicant boxes in at least petg if you plan on using the filament dryer in your

This has to be the worst A1 fire I've seen so far

I saw this not too long ago on Instagram. I can basically guarantee that there will be another recall. For some reason, the A1, compared to the rest of the entire Bambu line, is extremely susceptible power problems, thus leading to fire concerns. I got my Bambu Lab A1 LONG after the first recall (as

doesHaveTheSameRingToIt

The Bambulab A1 we have at work has easily paid for itself and then some. We use it to print prototypes and mock ups as well as tools we need for specific tasks. It’s much faster than getting it done with a CNC only to discover you made a mistake in the first prototype and need to adjust things. Onc

My son wants a 3d printer

I suggest the Bambu Lab A1 mini that’s on sale right now for $199. It’s a nice starter printer. If he is really into printing in the future, you can add the AMS to allow multi-color printing.

What’s the easiest “fire-and-forget” Bambu Lab printer for someone with zero 3D-printing experience?

Bambulab A1 with the AMS combo. Simple, easy, quiet enough.
