K1C

My first printer was a creality k1 that in the entire time i owned it I had two issues that needed fixing. It's kind of worrying that people just accept this level of failures as normal after paying several hundred dollars for these. That goes for any brand. I can't even get responses to open ticket

Additive manufacturing a.k.a 3D printing has expanded tremendously over the last decade and become much more commercially accessible. Just the categories of 3D printing (FDM, SLS, PBF, SLA, etc) can be overwhelming. It's your first I would stick to FDM. Since your use case is potentially replacing f

That’s frustrating, but the Creality K1 is usually pretty reliable once it’s dialed in. Repeated clogs like that are often small tuning issues rather than anything serious. I’d look at retraction settings and temps first, and maybe check filament quality too. Creality machines are generally easy to

that sounds more like a first layer calibration or slicer issue than hardware. the creality k1 max is usually very consistent once the first layer is dialed in. i'd recheck z-offset and first layer flow, maybe re-slice the file too. creality machines tend to lock in really well after small adjustmen

we mostly run stuff like the Creality K1C 3D Printer and a few larger K1/K2 series machines. main reason is they’re pretty reliable once dialed in, and they handle tougher materials well, which matters more for functional parts than just looks. also nice that they’re more open to tweaking compared t

Ask this on a Bambu sub and you are gonna get completely different answers. I think creality ain’t a terrible first printer because there is always something wrong and something that needs fixin. I had a ender 3 then a K1 which I had so many problems with hotend extruder mainboard it all broke. Then

I've had nothing but success with my Creality printers, not one mechanical issue that I didn't create. Thought that Sunlu only sold that "Kidoodle MiniBox A1" thing and that's for kids, is that what you're talking about? Creality sells more printers than anyone else in the 3D hobby printer market. I

Ive had many, many, many printers. I even have a YT dedicated to 3d printing. Wont plug it to avoid a ban. From Creality I owned the E3Pro, K1, K1C, K1Max From Bambu I own the A1, P1S, H2D. The reason i say "owned" to Creality is because after I got the P1S I realised how painfully finnicky creality

I just entered the home 3D printer world. I got the Creality K1C, and so far no problems. I have just been printing PLA-CF for my kid’s FTC robotics projects. I went through a couple of rolls of filament and no print issues so far. I haven’t bothered to do any calibration, and dimensions are good en

Yes you have a point, and i agree with you too. I'm just simply enjoying how simple these printers are, especially since my experiences have not been that great overall. The K1C was doing well for the first 2 days, then it got homing and Z motor issues so that was real unfortunate.. like i said i ha
