    Bambu labs gives you the best printers for the price. It doesnt matter if its the A1 mini or the X1 carbon they are all great and just about all print the same. Even the print speed is the same from the A1 to X1. they are also very easy to work on too. we own 6 and are just going to keep getting more. sooo happy

    This 3D printer is perfect, especially for first-timers. It's very smooth and instructions are pretty clear and easy to understand. It's not too big either so perfect to have in a little corner of a room

    This is a great 3D printer. I have the A1 combo that I have set colors. I purchased this one to try different filaments and 1 off designs. Great printer and easy to use.

    Good experience with A1 mini 3d printer

    I managed to snatch one after repeated checking as it was going in and out of stock. Printer is very carefully packaged and all hardware components felt solid. I'm new to 3D printing so it probably took me 30mins to slowly follow the unboxing, very light assembly, and setup. No issues so far after a dozen prints. So far, I used only the Bambu handy app from my phone as I found the desktop Studio slicer to be rather intimidating with all the settings. That will take time to learn. 1 thing I found is that for small prints, the printhead would pause frequently at the filament poop cutter. Unchecking the time-lapse video selection before printing eliminated these pauses and sped up the printing noticeably. Overall, a fantastic little printer. The only thing I wish could be better is if Bambu could include a longer filament sample as the one that came was only enough for about 1 test print.

    Bought this for my 9yo for Christmas. Huge hit! Super easy to use. It didn’t stop running for days! That said, if you want to do full color printing, buy the AMS lite attachment. We are currently waiting for it on backorder.

    My 10 year old daughter received this 3d printer as a Christmas gift and she loves it. She is able to use the app independently to print many characters thst she loves. It wasn’t difficult to set up and get running either.

    Easy to set up out of box, app is easy to use on a phone for all ages. Still playing around with it to figure out how to do 4 colors. It can run other brands of filament fairly easily as well.

    I have used this printer for nearly a month. It's easy to setup out of the box. It's practical and fun. It's easy to take apart and trouble shoot, and qr codes have videos to show you how to do anything on the device. Bambu Studio is a very intuitive slicer and it's directly connected to MakerWorld, so you can start printing pretty much anything you can imagine with very little effort out of the box (with some PLA of course). If I had known how frequently I would use it, I would have got the model with a larger print volume and the AMS lite.

    My 13 year old son got this for Christmas. Set up was easy, right away he was able to print off some of the preloaded templates. The software and printing custom has been difficult but he still loves it!

    Amazing little machine! It's quiet, intriguing, and fun to watch it run. It is a gateway to the bigger printers but absolutely holds its own in print quality. Fits on a work desk and makes an excellent office companion. Get it!

    The A1 mini has been a fantastic printer. I have a little over 150 hours of print time and I’ve had zero issues with failed prints. Setup and software is very intuitive and simple and they didn’t lie when they advertised you’d be printing almost immediately. They also have free access to a ton of user made 3D files on their app to help get you started. Highly recommend

    Excellent with fast 2day shipping! We all enjoy printing with the mini printer! Just note that only one email / password can be associated with a printer so use one that can be shared within the family.

    I lvoed the easy setup and the very clean monochromatic color scheme the A1 mini had. It was super ewsy to set up thanks to the hand out provided in the box of the product. As a best buy employee now using the printer and crwating numerous items have been able to recommend this product from my own personal experience. This item is super easy and perfect for anyone intrested in beginning 3d printing at a affordable price.
