Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I'm so happy I got this printer- approaching 700 hours in 2 months since purchase. Little set up to get my first print and a little trial and error to find a computer that works for the software (you can use your phone/ipad/tablet with the app but to use the software to design or make changes you need a computer). I've had very little error - and honestly 99% of the few errors I had were on my end. I love this machine- and ready to buy another one (looking at you P2S!) Would and may purchase this one again and can't recommend it enough for a truly easy entry into 3d printing.

Works as should easy to set up does a good job creating projects

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.

In my opinion, it's great for people who want to learn. It's very good for beginners. It's definitely a learning curve. But they make it simple, and honestly I would say, probably get you an extra nozzle or extruder, because you will clog up the first one, but outside of that, it's a genuinely good product. Parent's amazing. Definitely followed instructions when constructing everything. I mean, that's a genuinely good product. I also wouldn't recommend using cheap filaments like get the best filaments you can get, so you don't run into any issues other than that. It's like a really great product that works really well. And it's a good deal, but it comes with the auto loader. It's pretty good deal, especially if you can find it on sale.

This thing is a blast to use. Setup is quick, prints look great, and the AMS Lite makes multi‑color jobs super easy. Fast, clean, and basically zero hassle. If you want a printer that just works, this combo nails it.

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.

Great printer option. It is easy to use, quiet, and we have not had many issues with the prints failing. I would highly recommend for a first time 3d printer option!

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

I have been 3d printing for 10 years and this is the easiest to use, easiest to set up and accurate printer i have owned.

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.

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!

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.

Worked well easy set up and super easy use the app makes it a breeze

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

Easy set up and great quality prints. Enjoying all the cool designs.

Works great very easy to setup. Great for beginners

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.

Ok we all know Bambu and how these printers work great, easy to setup, etc etc… I started with a x1c and later got a p1s and then I picked up the a1 so I kind of went backwards. Some things that caught me off guard with this printer because I was used to Bambu higher end printers. It’s not a deal breaker by any means but the touch screen is very laggy sometimes. I’m not sure if it’s an SD card issue or just a slow chipset for the touch screen. The screen looks amazing but it’s not as fluid as the X1C. The other issue I have with this printer is color selection on the display screen is very limited so sometimes you have to just pick a place holder color that doesn’t match what your printing. Those are the only 2 things keeping this from being 5 star. It prints amazing is easy to setup the ams lite system is easy to use. The touch screen interface and menu could just be better,
