It’s not that Bambu is miraculously reliable. They just make a good product. It’s that Creality, especially the Ender series, are bad quality. I purchased an Ender 5 Max and within two months it was completely unusable. I spent over $500 in replacement parts, got two good prints out of it, and final

A lot of people are upset with Bambu for some moral missteps, which i won’t defend, but i’m a beginner myself and have fallen in love with my P1S Combo. Their hardware is reliable, and they have a pretty solid ecosystem with MakerWorld and Bambu Studio. The only other brand I have experience with is

Tenho uma Creality há 4 anos, e nunca tive problemas com ela. Problemas com ela definitivamente são casos isolados. É uma marca extremamente confiável, e peças de manutenção/reposição/upgrades são fáceis de serem achadas na Aliexpress e baratas. Nesse porte da Ender 5 Max, tem: Sovol SV08 Max (500×5

Or an Ender-5 Max! Creality support told me “deal with the reseller” and the reseller told me “that’s an issue for the manufacturer!” Had to spend more on replacement parts over three months out of pocket than i spent buying the printer! All should have been covered by basic warranty!

Hey, new cosplayer here too. Everyone's budget is different but if you are thinking of cosplay, a 3d printer is a must. Don't go ultra cheap and consider the size before buying. These days I would recommend: Bambu P2S (or P1S if initial budget is a concern) I don't like Bambulab as a company, but th

I had the same problem… with my Ender-5 Max. Poor print quality from day one. A new part failed every print. Creality told me the reseller was responsible for support, the reseller said it was on Creality… and back and forth and back and forth… ended up buying parts out of pocket, spent more than i

For armor/cosplay in that price range you're going to need a big boy printer (as in size). Can't make a Mando helmet that fits on some scrawny closed source Bambu Labs P1S. I already see those birds chirping in the comments. Quiet down Bambu Kids. That size ain't gonna cut it. You need a printer in

This isn’t just a Bambu thing. Creality was even worse! My Ender-5 Max shipped with a missing component, they told me to contact the reseller and that any further communication with them would be ignored. The reseller then told me to contact Creality as the unit was factory sealed, making the missin

My Ender 5 max reminds me why I left Creality years ago haha. When it works, it’s fine, but it feels like a constant battle, trying to get it to work
