Welcome to the club. I have to warn you, if you try to tell the Creality Cult how good these Bambu Printers are, they'll call you a bunch of names. Shill, brainwashed, tourist, etc. There are other printers out there that are nearly as good out there. Qidi and Prusa are really reliable and Snapmaker

I'm on my 5th Printer and my last two are Creality K2 and the Bambu P2S. I've been a tinkerer all my life and now I'm older and I just want things to work. The Bambu P2S is now my favorite for how simple things are and their ecosystem is pretty slick. If I was to start over I'd get a Bambu then buy

That’s great! I had Claude build something very similar and it named it perfect print lol. I made it when I had the Creality K2 because every print I was trying to make came out awful. I ordered the P2S and the prints have been great right out of the box.

That’s where I ran into to so many problems with the Creality K2. Bed adhesion, dragging and nozzle build up became a struggle with every print. I switched to the Bambu P2S mainly because of theirs being automatic. So far in a months worth of prints I haven’t had any of those issues.

Yes and no. The filament issue continued one after another. I tried to roll back the software but it appears that Creality has put an end to it. I called I bought a BambuLab P2S. It’s giving me print results that blow away the K2

Long time Creality user here. None of the printers of any brand are going to be 100%. I have just as much trouble with my Bambu as I do with my K1, K1 Max, and K2 Plus. A lot of it boils down to user issues or not understanding what you are doing. Also there are a lot of consumables and maintenance

As a long-time 3D print enthusiast and a current owner of a Bambu P2S and a Creality K2 Plus (amongst a few others), I believe a neophyte is more likely to get a hassle-free start with a Bambu. That's not to say that Bambu is totally free from quality control issues or other glitches, but my persona

My K1C has been a workhorse and I love it, but on the other hand I bought a brand new K2 Plus and it was delivered broken and had to be immediately returned. So I’m 50/50 on Creality. Qidi is a good alternative source if you are still looking for an open source printer if you aren’t comfortable goin

My advice would be that you read through this reddit for more experiences. Your only going to get the opinions of people who respond here rather reading through many more experiences in this reddit. I saw this in another response from you:plutonium-239"Thanks. Reviews aren’t very good of the sparkX-
