Customer Ratings & Reviews

Our teenage boys bought this with their Christmas money after seeing the quality of their sister’s A1 Mini. Setup was very easy with good instructions. The Bambu app has so many options to print. Have had a few prints that messed up but i think it was the design of the print and not the printer itself. The prints come out clean and usually don’t need much cleaning up. The auto bed leveling and motor noise level calibration are excellent. Highly recommend this printer!

I highly recommend this printer. I went back and forth for a while deciding whether to get one or not. I researched and researched. I finally settled on the A1 Combo. Setting it up is pretty straightforward. I actually followed one of the many youtube videos on setting it up vs the included manual. Not saying it's bad, it's just I prefer the video setup. I have printed probably over 50 items since I've gotten it and have absolutely no regrets. Out of all of them, only one print has been bad and that was my fault, not the printers. The Bambu Handy app is amazing. There are literally hundreds of prints on there. It's as simple as selecting a print, seeing how many plates and filament it would require and then hitting start. That simple. I've downloaded Bambu studio to start learning how to create my own but haven't had the time to start doing that yet. In summary, you can't go wrong with this printer. It's a great starter printer for someone just getting into 3D printing.

The Bambu Lab A1 is easily one of the most impressive 3D printers I have ever used. From setup to daily operation, everything about this machine feels thoughtfully designed for both beginners and experienced makers alike. Unboxing and setup took minutes, not hours, thanks to its intuitive assembly and clear instructions. Within a short time, I was printing high-quality parts with virtually no tuning required. Print quality is exceptional right out of the box. Layer lines are clean, details are sharp, and dimensional accuracy is spot-on. The automatic bed leveling works flawlessly, eliminating one of the most common frustrations in 3D printing. Combined with the A1’s reliable extrusion system, failed prints are extremely rare. Speed is another standout feature. The A1 produces fast prints without sacrificing quality, which is a game-changer for both prototyping and production work. Paired with Bambu Studio software, slicing and monitoring prints is smooth, modern, and user-friendly. Remote monitoring and wireless printing add a level of convenience that feels truly next-generation. Build quality is solid and premium, especially for its price point. The frame is rigid, the motion system is precise, and everything feels engineered with long-term reliability in mind. Noise levels are also pleasantly low, making it suitable for home, classroom, or office use. Overall, the Bambu Lab A1 offers incredible value, combining speed, precision, automation, and reliability into a sleek and affordable package. It removes many of the traditional headaches of 3D printing while delivering professional-grade results. I would confidently recommend the Bambu Lab A1 to anyone looking for a powerful, dependable, and user-friendly 3D printer.

We purchased this Bambu Lab - A1 Combo 3D Printer as a Christmas gift for our grandson. It was one of the best purchases we made. The 3D printer was fairly easy to set up using a YouTube video my grandson found. The printer is made well and he has been making some of the most amazing things. He even made a hook for us to use on our outdoor gazebo blinds

The Bambu Lab A1 is an impressive little 3D printer that’s fast, quiet, and super easy to use—even for beginners. Setup takes just a few minutes, and prints come out clean and sharp right out of the box. The optional AMS Lite system makes multi-color printing fun, though it can be a bit finicky at times. The touchscreen is slick, the software’s intuitive, and the whole machine feels well-built. It’s not perfect—filament loading can be tricky, and color changes waste a bit of filament—but for the price, it’s a fantastic option for hobbyists who want speed without sacrificing quality.

The Bambu A1 has completely exceeded my expectations. Setup was fast, clean, and incredibly beginner-friendly—Bambu really nailed the out-of-box experience. Within minutes I was printing, and the first test print looked better than what I used to get after hours of tuning on other machines. What impresses me most is the speed and consistency. The A1 delivers fast prints without sacrificing quality, and the layers come out smooth with almost no tweaking. The AMS Lite integration is fantastic too—automatic filament switching works flawlessly and makes multi-color prints effortless. Noise levels are low, the UI is intuitive, and everything feels well-designed and polished. Bambu Studio makes slicing easy, and the Wi-Fi connectivity is rock solid. It’s rare to find a printer at this price point that performs like a premium machine. If you’re looking for a printer that’s fast, reliable, accurate, and genuinely enjoyable to use, the Bambu A1 is a no-brainer. Absolutely worth every penny!

I'm super happy with this 3D printer. This is my first ever printer and I've never touched a 3D printer before this too. Set up was pretty easy and straight forward with the book but I did watch a set up video prior to as well. The AMS lite is really fun and I've been doing a number of multicolor prints already. It doesn't come with anything more than a strip of filament so make sure you have some ready for when your printer arrives. I was up and printing within an hour of it arriving and now I can't stop. I'm still a little nervous and won't print when I'm not home but that's me. Oh yeah don't hook the AMS lite up to the printer before it's turned on and everything is updated and ran through the configuration as you'll need to oil under the build plate (which I didn't know) and removing the filament is a little bit of a pain for me. Thankfully there's a print to help with that. I opted to get this printer via Best Buy over Bambu because I got free shipping.

We got the Bambu A1 3D printer for our son for Christmas, and it has been fantastic so far. Setup was surprisingly easy, even for beginners, and we were printing within no time. We’ve already made a bunch of different items, and everything has printed smoothly with great quality. We haven’t had a single issue, and the machine itself is really cool and impressive to watch in action. Overall, it’s been a great purchase and a lot of fun for the whole family.

Great printer! Excellent prints. Easy to set up. Easy to use. Multi-color wastes more filament than I would like.

Bambu lab printers are great for starters who just want to print stuff and don’t want to deal with setting everything up and calibrating. All you have to do is screw in a few screws and mount the z axis and everything else is automatic. It takes 15~ or so minutes to calibrate and then it is ready to print. It comes with an sd card preloaded with a handful of test prints like a benchy or a bed scraper (it comes with a blade that you assemble). Overall great printer, especially paired with the ams lite.

I bought this for my daughter.. she had 0 experience with 3d printing other than she knew she wanted to get into it. I had played with some legacy printers enough to know that whatever I got for her had to be plug and play... this machine exceeded those expectations by a mile l! The prints she was able to do straight from the app on her phone blew away prints I had done on an Ender 3 after hours of tinkering with seetimgs , bed leveling etc.. this one self levels, self adjusts and..just works!! And I wasnt foung to get the AMS 4 color version.. do yourself a favor..pay the 100.00 upgrade and get it ..it makes a world of difference. Long story short... this is by far the best starter machine out there and will carry a beginner into intermediate and beyond

Great product easy to set up and operate. Fantastic outcome of everything that has been designed so far

The Bambu Lab A1 is fast, reliable, and super easy to use. Setup was quick, calibration is automatic, and the print quality is excellent right out of the box. Purchased for my son as his first printer and the A1 has exceeded all of our expectations! For the price, it’s an awesome value and a great choice for both beginners and experienced users. Highly recommend!

Got this because I was sick of leveling my old print bed and how much time and dedication that thing took. This new printer is awesome. Very easy to use and just about everything is automatic. I have quite a bit of experience with 3d printers and this is a breeze. Nice app to go along with it. My wife has been printing more than me lately and she has no idea how to do anything but the basics which consists of cleaning the bed after the print and reloading new filiment. Pros: -Auto bed leveling (yay!) -Super simple interface in the app -Very quick print times -Clean prints, using custom settings and ironimg helps minimize layer lines and creates a smooth finish -filiment depletion detection -AMS is a cool concept and works suprisingly well -AMS has auto filiment feed -setup was simple and very well detailed Cons: -tubing is fairly short. AMS needs to be real close to the printer - due to the speed needs a very stable table to be on. - you actually need to print a discard bucket, tool to release tubing (its a pain without) and cable managment (not totally necessary but with the AMS being as close as it has to be probably a good idea). Some might not see this as a con but its an added cost that shouldnt be there. -Printing with AMS isnt as user friendly as single color printing, tweaks have to be made to ensure no color bleed and purging. -The bambu studio software took a bit to get up and running. Had to disable my secondary graphics card on my laptop to get it to run and that suggestion came from my google search, support didnt have a solution. -lots of waste printing complex colored prints, but its to be expected on a single extruder system. Overall I love this thing. Its a great printer for begginers as well as experienced users that want to get complex with their prints. Side note: I did a lot of research between all of bambu's printers and for the price and ease of use (and ease of access on the AMS side) this one came out on top for my personal needs.

I recently got the Bambu A1 Combo with the AMS Lite (the automatic feeder for up to four spools), and I have to say—the experience has been absolutely awesome. I upgraded from an Ender, and the difference is night and day. The A1 is simpler to use, significantly faster, and virtually trouble-free. One of the best-kept secrets is the MakerWorld app—you can browse, slice, and send prints straight from your phone or PC over Wi-Fi. It’s super convenient and works like a charm. Honestly, my only regret is not ordering more filament—this printer makes it so easy and fun to print that I ran through my initial supply way too fast! Highly recommended if you're ready to take your 3D printing to the next level.

I have had three other 3d printers. This is my first Bambu. Man did they get it right. I am printing more than ever. It’s fun now. I know how to tinker. I have 45 years in mechanical engineering. I like to build things and have done a lot of restoration work. I can fix things. When I want to print in 3d I just want to print. I don’t want to spend thirty minutes unloading a nozzle, twenty minutes trying to get the first layer to adhere, ………. This printer does what it is suppose to do print. I didn’t have to get a raspberry pi and download multiple programs to print from my iPhone. I downloaded an app and presto it just works. These printers have a reputation, and it’s a good one.

This 3D printer is incredible! It is very user friendly and the prints turn out great! The multi color functionality is awesome and the printer is very reliable. I would give more stars if I could.

WOW, I was not expecting this printer to work so well. I am so impressed with it. First off it hardly take any space compared to my close printer and it's super light and so quiet, I couldn't believe how quiet it was and the fact you can use the touch screen, phone and computer. That is great especially for first time 3d printer buyers.The Bambu Lab app is so easy to use just find what you want and press print and the A1 starts printing. I chose the A1 combo so I could print multi color. I would advice to print an enclosure to keep the filament dry, you can find that in the Bambu app and it's free. I would definitely recommend this A1 printer but especially the A1 combo, it much cheaper.You will be amazed on how great this printer quality is.I was hesitant to buy, but I'm so glad I bought it and thinking of getting another as a gift for my nieces.Buy one, especially right now, they are so cheap in price. In my opinion you not get a better 3D printer at this price. I love it!

As a first-time 3D printer owner, the Bambu A1 has been a game-changer. The setup was absolutely flawless, guiding through each step with clear instructions. The automated calibration meant that high-quality models were printed almost immediately, with no fuss or guesswork. The printer is incredibly beginner-friendly and produces exceptional results, right out of the box

I can’t say enough good things about this printer. It was so easy to set up, and without changing anything I was printing in less than an hour.
