    I can confidently say the Bambu A1 is an absolute beast when it comes to 3D printing. This machine is fast, precise, and incredibly user-friendly a true printing powerhouse in every sense. Right out of the box, setup was smooth and intuitive. The auto-calibration features save a ton of time, and the interface is clean and easy to navigate, even for beginners. But where the A1 really shines is in performance. The speed and quality of prints are insane crisp layers, minimal stringing, and reliable results every time. Whether I’m printing small prototypes or larger multi-part builds, the A1 handles it all like a champ. It’s quiet, efficient, and feels like it was built to perform without compromise. If you’re looking for a 3D printer that can keep up with serious printing demands without the constant tweaking and headaches, the Bambu A1 is it. Highly recommend!

    Can't Complain - it's a Bambu 3D printer

    Upgraded from my A1 Mini and made a lot of modifications on this. The only thing that stuck out to me is Bambu made some changes from what I'm used to seeing unboxing this. The allen keys are regular allen keys, no grip with a Bambu logo, no color palette, everything's in bags without zips (so if you have spare screws be sure you have a ziplock bag and a sharpie to label them) and the lubricant grease is a bag instead of the bottle cap like the lubricant oil. Putting everything together was easy, but I couldn't help but notice the slight drop in quality in that regard. Other than that the assembly was easy to put together. The only main issue with the build quality is when I was trying to troubleshoot by unscrewing one of the pieces to get to the extruder it was so incredibly tight the screw stripped. Luckily I have spare parts to replace it. I've already put over 300 hours of printing on this thing and put it through some tricky filaments on the ams lite which worked for the most part. I was so close to get it work between PLA and TPU but for some reason whenever it switched to TPU the feeder will pull out the filament as it was about to feed into the extruder. When I went to manual maintenance, if you let it keep feeding into the extruder it will run fine but it's odd that it doesn't. This was used with a TPU 85A from Inland. Now I've heard Bambu has a specific TPU filament that works with AMS Lite that might avoid this issue but I have yet to try it. After heavily drying some trickier filaments, I was able to print PET-CF and PLA-CF on the AMS Lite with hardly any issues. It gets the job done, prints flawlessly (even the complex ones) and the biggest bonus as always is the ability to plug and play, the efficient speed times, the ecosystem, and their slicer software that takes the cake.

    This machine is all you need! Yes you can buy a much more expensive model, and yes you can purchase a more affordable option. This hits that sweet spot of more bang for the buck!! Its Fast, precise, effortless! It has AMS!! And its has onboard Camera system for timelapse plus more. You really can’t understand the joy this machine brings until you’ve used one for yourself!

    I got my daughter the A1mini for her birthday and she loved it. But wanted the AMS unit to do multiple colors. So I found the A1 combo and it prints anything you can think of. She gave her neighbor friend the A1mini so they could print stuff together ❤️. Everyone in the house is using it so it pretty much runs 24-7 with no problems whatsoever. The app makes it easy to make stuff so you can just use your phone with no need for computer. Highly recommend ..

    I started out with a new Ender 3 V3 SE to learn 3d printing on. I then moved to a used Prusa MK3S+ which was a big step up. Then I wanted to be able to do multi color printing so I bought this Bambu A1 with AMS. This printer is amazing. I have only had one failed print and that was because I didn’t choose to use supports. The prints look great as well. Great quality.

    I am super impressed with this item was very skeptical about going with this company because of different things talked about. I however decided to get one and it has not stopped impressing me yet. Great for begginers as well super easy setup. Instructions are pretty easy to understand with alot of color coded locations. Make sure to remove the stabilizer brackets for Z axis that instruction could use more clarity 4 allen head screws that attach the 2 brackets which is where if you print the top mount for filament rack holder via free file those will mount to.

    One of the best printers you can buy, quiet, fast and accurate prints. But now with the price hike of more than $170 from $529 to $699, it’s priced out of reach for most folks. The images posted show some mods to the printers including led cob strip lights AMS top mount brackets poop bins etc

    It took a few weeks of randomly checking back but I was finally able to catch this in stock and quickly ordered it. I already had the M5C 3D printer from when BB had them for $200 around Christmas. I've gotten more than my moneys worth from the M5C by simply printing myself tabletop terrain but the A1 is like going from a 1970s Charger (M5C simple, noisy, reliable) to a modern 2025 Charger (A1 - fast, quiet, automatic, set & forget). The software is just as easy to use as Ankermakes but it's also much more advanced if you need it. This picture is the first thing I printed, I just told the software what color was in the AMS Lite, and it did the rest.

    Absolute love this 3-D printer. I was so glad when I saw Best Buy started selling these in store. I waited awhile to get mine but very glad I did because this printer is awesome. I will never go back to any other machine besides Bambu Labs. So many features, they thought of almost anything when they built this machine. The multi color printing is so nice and it auto feeds it though the tubes which is nice not having to feed filament. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste you time or money on cheaper printers because at this price you won’t get any better.

    After having a Ender 3 for 8 years I decided to upgrade and wow is this a big game changer, much faster prints, no calibration needed as it does everything for you. Printed the top mount for the AMS with the provided files by Bambu. MakerWorld printing environment is amazing.

    Best Printer I’ve Had so Far

    This 3d printer is amazing! I’ve had two other very popular brands but the features and accuracy in this one blows them away. I actually bought this one because one of my other two started messing up out the blue and their support was not helpful. They kept telling me to do what I was already doing. Anyway, the prints come out amazing accurate and smooth. And the software and apps well thought out. Makes it a breeze to start printing. The wifi feature is also a godsend. I’m also glad I went with the one with the color changing ability.

    The Apple of 3D Printers

    After doing a lot of research on different 3-D printers, I settled on this one. I kept my eye out for the best possible price and Best Buy had that at the time of my purchase. This 3-D printer has been so minimal to maintain or maintenance. My family and I have enjoyed making and creating so many different things through Bambu labs studio. This is truly a said it, and forget it printer without any of the tinkering or frustration of needing to know a lot of intricate details or knowledge about 3-D printers. It’s an Apple like experience and quality.

    This was the best purchase made! If you’re a maker or considered it before, this is perfect. Super easy experience from Bambu Labs, their software is 10/10 as well! I can simply look for what I want through their vast library on Maker World and then send it to my printer and it goes. I’ve put this printer through everything these past couple months, countless D&D figures and environments, random toys, shelves, containers, replacement parts for tools and machines, and more. Anything I need I use this printer, and recently I started dabbling with TinkerCAD and making my own designs. This purchase paid itself back quickly.

    I use the 3D Bambu Lab A1 printer for my hobbies and around the house needs. I choose the “combo’’ 3D printer and AMS together. And very happy I did. The 3D printer has been working flawlessly since I got it. No regrets.

    The A1 Combo has been flawless from the start. Setup was quick and straightforward, and it prints with incredible consistency right out of the box. The automatic calibration and multi-color capability make it feel like a professional machine, but it’s still easy enough for a beginner to use. Print quality has been excellent across different materials, and I’ve had no issues with jams or failed jobs. Best Buy made the buying process simple, and in-store pickup was fast and convenient. I couldn’t be happier with the combination of product performance and shopping experience.

    The Bambu Labs A1 has completely exceeded my expectations. Setup was incredibly simple, and it was printing beautifully within minutes. The print quality is outstanding right out of the box — smooth layers, precise details, and reliable adhesion every time. The auto calibration and speed make it perfect for both beginners and seasoned makers. It’s quiet, fast, and feels premium in every way. Bambu Labs really nailed it with this one.

    This is my 3rd 3D printer and I'm loving the 4 colors. My first 2 were single colors and saw this with the AMS and had to try it. Setup takes a little time, but pretty easy. Changing filaments are a bit slow, but worth it for 4 colors. Seems the nozzles don't last as long as the other brand I have, but they're cheap. Or maybe it's me. Takes a bit to get the right temp/humidity settings for ABS, ASA or PETG, but once you dial it in, it prints great! I highly recommend an enclosure. Especially if you have a lot of humidity. I would highly recommend this for any beginner as well due to the massive online commuity for these.
