Customer Ratings & Reviews

The A1 Mini is honestly just solid. It worked straight out of the box, no messing around. Setup took maybe five minutes and I did everything from my phone, which was way easier than I expected. The app is clean and actually makes sense, so I didn’t have to dig through settings just to start printing. First print came out great with zero adjustments. It’s quiet, fast, and just does what it’s supposed to do. I’ve used other printers where you spend hours tweaking before you even get a decent print. This one just works. For the size and price, it’s kind of perfect if you want something that’s reliable without a big learning curve. I’m seriously impressed.

This is my 5th printer and second a1 mini, others range from a1 to h2d, all bambu lab machines. These minis are quiet and efficient, this second mini will be a dedicated TPU machine for production parts, my other is setup for PETG and PLA. It simply doesn’t get more plug and play than these guys, and for those just getting into it, my daughter runs these with ease, and at barely over $200 bucks the risk is low if you’re nervous about buying a first printer. Take advantage of the free Bambu academy to learn all about your new machine, and have fun exploring maker world for all kinds of things you can make the kids or for around the house. If you can think it, there’s likely really cool free files just waiting for you to print! They also fun to modify like we have with 3d printed parts and affordable aftermarket lights like she did to ours to give them personality

This is my first 3D printer and I'm blown away at how easy it is. Right after setting it up, it was printing quick and amazing models. The printer has handled practically everything I've thrown at it. The build plate is rather small but for now it's enough for me. An AMS would've also been reallllyyyy convenient. Either way, I love it. Very worth it.

As someone who has always been a fan of ed printing amd fabricating things for myself this has exponentially boosted my creativity and made my life more fulfilled knowing if i have a problem i can literally make a solution for it! The ease of use from opening it assembling it and making your first 3d print is fascisnating how easy it is. The software included makes adjusting 3d prints to your exact needs a breeze. Although print quality was iffy on certain prints, a bit of tinkering and learning allowed me to fix the issues and learn more about this hobby.

Simply Amazing 3d printed parts that look like injection molded parts I have used 3d printers for 12 years - these Bambu Lab 3D printers are simply alien technology I also have a P1P which has over 1000 hrs of print time with 2 print failures- that’s amazing reliability Just started playing with this A1 Mini and so far the speed and print quality is right there with my more expensive P1P - don’t try to print with Carbon the print head made funny noises which cleared up after I ran PLA through it - it’s printing fine now Ohh yea its quiet as a mouse - great for printing next to your work area - my P1P sound like a jet engine

This is one of the best value things I’ve ever owned. Right out of the box, it just works. Flawless prints, easy setup, and no headaches. If this printer existed when I was a kid and had access to materialize any creative idea I had on the spot, I’d be Tony Stark right now. Can’t recommend enough

Awesome unit! This printer has helped my small business keep my product high quality. The speed of the machine is amazing too, really high printing accuracy! Comes with tools, everything you need to maintain your printer, oil and grease. The printer is easy to easy, the slicer is very easy to work with. Great value.

I was hesitant on buying this but decided to pull the trigger anyway and it sure does not disappoint! This printer has run 3 days straight with zero failed prints and zero issues. If you decide to pick this up it comes with enough filament for maybe 2 to 3 test prints so make sure to grab a spool while you at best buy. As far as the learning curve I was printing in 30 min and that was mostly setup and creating a account. No pc needed you can print straight from your phone. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone.

I have had quite a few printers before I got the mini. This was my first Bambu Lab printer. I’ve bought a few more in their line since. It’s amazing. Before my Bambu lab experience, I would say that there was a HUGE learning curve for 3d printing when you start out. Now, having experienced the Bambu line first hand, I’d say go for it as long as it’s Bambu. It’s an amazing experience compared to other brands/ printers. It’s truly the gold standard for user experience. It just works. set it up, maintain it every once in awhile and it does what you want. I have not had a print fail for any reason.

[Employee of bestbuy] Great quality, easy setup, compact and quiet printer!

My son had a 3d printer on his Christmas list. It is an awesome little machine. It was a great price. It was very easy to set up. I wish I would have bought the Ams lite with it but it is available for purchase. The Bambu handy app has tons of really cool things that can be made which doesn’t cost extra. It is very easier to select the item he wants made and let it run. We only had 1 malfunction where the machine did not make the arms could have been the program, someone messing with it or the filament. It has a camera on it and you can check on it periodically without having to go look at it. My son was able to run something while we were doing errands. The machine is small, but it does make sizable figurines

Everything I've experienced with this printer so far is just as good as I imagined and more. From the print speed to the amazing form factor, it's a 10/10 machine. Highly recommend. Side note: printing accessories for it right away is a good idea and adds to the purchase satisfaction.

Amazing little printer. We bought a flashforge before this and it had so many issues. This has been so simple and easy to work. Took about 10-15 min of set up (as opposed to HOURS) on the flash forge. Prints are fast and effective. Wish I would have bought this first and not wasted time with the flashforge. Highly recommend!

Really impressed with this little machine. Pretty much plug and play. I could not believe how fast this thing is. Really happy with this purchase.

Ready to go out of the box , Super quiet, ton of mods thanks to the 3D print community and the best part is that you can’t print flexible filaments with ease. Great for a beginner or in my case, it’s my second printer

First 3D printer purchase. Set up was quick and easy. Quiet (can only hear the fan turning up or down periodically). The app works great on phone to easily print designs/ check progress during the build. We’ve only printed single filament options so far, but website shows ability for multiple colors and will try soon.

I never thought I would actually have a 3D printer. I’ve used the a1 Mjni for about 3 weeks and I love it. So simple to use and so many site are available to make things easy Bamdu did a great job with this product!

Absolutely love this machine!! So easy to set up! I would definitely recommend for a beginner since its so easy to set up and use. I boughtbit for my daughter for Christmas but I think I use it more than she does! I would recommned purchasing additional spool holders and lines so you can use multi colors.

Purchased as a Christmas present for my 11 year old son. The Bambu A1 mini is a good quality printer. Both the printer and app are simple to set up and easy to use. Printer comes with only 20 grams of filament, enough to make one small toy or key chain. Additional two 1kg spools of filament purchased separately; PLA Basic blue, green. Overall very happy with printer, app and products produced.

Definitely recommend this printer for a first time printer. Bought one for my wife. She loved it and was able to easily use it. Made nice clean prints and was very efficient. She would still have it but wanted to be able to print multi colors so I bought her a P2S. No complaints on the A1 mini.
