Trying to choose between Prusa and Bambulab - what am I missing?
This is a Prusa group so you are likely to get some biased responses. For what it's worth, I choose to go Prusa over Bambu because I like how Prusa has remained open source. Bambu has recently made moves to close in their ecosystem which was a concerning direction. One of my first 3D printers was ve

Everyone is bragging about their new CoreOne. Meanwhile, my old lady:
In 10 years I will still be bragging about my core one and maybe also call it an old lady, thats the whole point with prusa 🤣.

Honest question: Who is the Prusa Core One L actually for in 2025/2026?
I want to touch one point about tuning. With Prusa, you don’t need to tune each machine individually - tuning is done in the slicer for specific filaments and it applies it to ALL Prusa printers. Prusa printers will give you the same print everytime, that’s why they’re best for farms. In my experien

Prusa vs Bambu feels less like “better vs worse” and more like different priorities
Hi, so although Josef signs my paychecks, I did purchase a Bambu A1, and X1C before I replaced them with Prusa, and then subsequently applied to work for big orange a little over a year later. My biggest problem with the Bambu system, is that the right way to use a Bambu is the way that Bambu decide

CORE One L Price increase from April 7th
Prusa really needs to figure out a way to cut some cost. They are simply not competitive. Why would I pay 2k (plus 200 dollar shipping) for a printer that is less capable than my 800 dollar printer. I love my Core One, but admittedly my P2S is considerably better and cost half the price. Same with t

Is Prusa trying to clear stock? New model coming soon?
I highly doubt that they are trying to clear stock. The Core One has been barely released (for Prusa time, not chinese printer time that push 10 iterations in one year) and a Core One S upgrade will likely still take some time. The INDX version will likely be sold beside the normal Core One. Many pe

CORE One L Price increase from April 7th
I love Prusa printers and was debating on ordering a Core One L, to replace my MK3S+, last week but didn't because it's hard to justify the cost especially when Bambu Labs have printers that are cheaper and just as capable. Prusa needs to figure out something on their prices.

Core One L not repairable?
Oh this topic again! It was brought up endlessly when the core one l first came out. Answer: you can’t, prusa doesn’t want to deal with the legal risk, extra regulation requirements etc

Trying to choose between Prusa and Bambulab - what am I missing?
I just bought a core one kit, and having run it for a week now including dealing with problems. I’d say that this feels like owning a very real tool. You can modify it to suit your needs, upgrade it, etc. you don’t need to source all parts and such from Prusa either. Sounds like the Bambu is more li

Bondtech Hardened Nozzle Official update:
I actually prefer them not to change this while they haven't figured out the proper wording/specs or whatever else of the product. To me it seems more genuine and more like owning up to the mess up. At least while they aren't accepting money. If they were accepting more preorders with false informat
