Bambu Lab
Bambu Lab P1S review
The default recommendation for most people. Enclosed CoreXY, fast, reliable out of the box, and the AMS makes multi-colour genuinely practical.
Best for: The one printer to buy if you only buy one.
What we like
- Enclosed — handles ABS, ASA, PC
- Extremely reliable out of the box
- Best-in-class multi-colour via AMS
- Huge community
What we don't
- No lidar/first-layer camera (that's the X1C)
- AMS wastes filament on purges
- Proprietary parts

Specifications are the manufacturer's published figures. "Max speed" is a headline number no printer sustains across a whole part — treat it as a ceiling, not a throughput estimate.
