First print out of box is absolutely outstanding. Every print so far has been faultless. Worth every penny First print out of box is absolutely outstanding. Every print so far has been faultless. Worth every penny

I waited ages before i could get this printer and it was absolutely worth it. Easy to setup and was printing that very night. There's no stopping now and now i print everyday. If you're hesitant don't be this one is worth it for sure. I waited ages before i could get this printer and it was absolutely worth it. Easy to setup and was printing that very night.

Was a bit scared to get into the old 3d printing but this thing is the bomb...
Super easy setup and a dream to run with the bambu handy app and bambu studio...
Not the greatest scream but brought a big tree tech panda screen and now I can get off the thing!!!! Was a bit scared to get into the old 3d printing but this thing is the bomb...

Bought our first printer 14 years ago, but this thing is something else!
Easy setup out of the box, works as advertised and turning out some really nice prints with the default settings.
Looking forward to tweaking and fine tuning it.
Plenty of social media support and YouTube how-to videos if you are feeling your way for the first time.
Highly recommend. Bought our first printer 14 years ago, but this thing is something else!

Really happy with the quality. Works perfectly without any issues.

I originally started with an Ender 3 V3 SE which was a great starter machine but still had some issues with print quality and it wasn’t the most beginner friendly machine. But this thing is so crazy perfect right from the start it’s insane! The only times the prints have ever failed is because it was my fault and it is incredibly helpful that you can view the printer from the mobile app with its built in camera and start prints from your phone using makerworld! Overall great printer, well worth it.

Thank you team!! Thank you team!!

Easy to set up, and worked straight away, without any problems. I've been printing out my own accessories from Makers World, and have started on a Japanese lamp that will use the light kit 001 that came with the printer.

A re-spooler model I found on Makers World took 21 hours to print, and I left it running overnight without any problems. Using Bambu Lab filaments in the AMS mean the RFID tags identify the filament automatically for me, although it couldn't find one of the filament types I loaded for my my last print. That might be because I started the print before trying to identify the filament.

The only cons I have found so far is...view more Easy to set up, and worked straight away, without any problems. I've been printing out my own accessories from Makers World, and have started on a Japanese lamp that will use the light kit 001 that came with the printer.

The only cons I have found so far is that it wants to do a thorough bed levelling check before each print which takes a while. The Bambu Filaments are more expensive than other brands, and it's not too difficult to enter the temperature and other requirements manually in Bambu Studio. The Handy app on my phone lets me print directly from the phone, which is nice, but when a complex multi plate project was being printed it didn't let me change the filament selection for one of the plates.

Altogether great value for money so far, and the finance option was helpful.

Honestly excellent, super easy to use and has worked with every filament ive thrown at it, bambu filaments in particular are very well calibrated out of the box.

I will say though that saying the “chassis temperature regulation fan” is “close loop controlled” is a bit misleading as it has no temp sensor for the chassis and as such the chassis fan is set based on the bed temp and filament (which isn't not “closed loop”) and is a bit disappointing considering the cents it would have cost to implement and the fact you cant add it yourself. So if you are printing filaments prone to warping make sure you let it preheat well and not place it in th...view more Honestly excellent, super easy to use and has worked with every filament ive thrown at it, bambu filaments in particular are very well calibrated out of the box.

I’ve owned a few 3D printers over the years, including the Ender 3, Anycubic, and a smaller budget model—and none have impressed me quite like this one. After a string of frustrating experiences (including a melted PLA mess on my Ender 3), I was ready for something more reliable. This printer delivered.

What I Liked
Great Value: For the features offered, the price point is excellent.
Fast, Smooth Delivery: Ordered from PB Tech at 4:00 PM and it arrived the next day to Lower Hutt from the Wellington store. That’s hard to beat.
High Build Quality: Feels solid and well-built compared to previous printers I’ve owned that eventually failed.

Effortless Setup: Assembly was quick. The included instructions were a bit lacking, but I watched an online setup video which made the process simple.
Integrated Camera: A nice feature for remote checking, though not perfect (see below).
User-Friendly App: The mobile app enhances the experience, allowing for remote monitoring and controls.
Machine Assistant: Error notifications and guided fixes have been super helpful for a smoother printing process.
Fully Enclosed Design: A big bonus for print quality and safety.
Auto Bed Leveling: The nozzle adjusts rather than the bed, which removes the usual hassle of manual spacing and calibration. Wherever you place it, it just works.

What Could Be Better
Camera Quality: While it’s great for basic monitoring, the video resolution is poor. Don’t buy it for the camera—it’s more of a bonus than a core feature.
Noise Level: It’s quite loud—comparable to a vacuum cleaner. This is definitely something to be aware of if you’re planning to run prints in shared or quiet spaces.

Despite a few minor drawbacks, this printer is a fantastic upgrade. It’s reliable, intuitive, and packed with features that actually work. Highly recommended for anyone tired of working with temperamental machines.

Having had other brands like Creality. This Bambu Lab P1S was a real treat: better build quality, higher quality prints. more user friendly. and most of all no drama unlike some of the others.

Just easy to set up and start using even without a pc as the app allows you to do everything.
I spent weeks online researching and the reviews and ease of use was my priority - this delivers that 100%
Hassle free and easy printing every time with the Bambu Lab filaments ;-) Just easy to set up and start using even without a pc as the app allows you to do everything.
