    Best Buy had a better price for the printer than on the Bambu Labs website. The printer itself is an epic little thing. I have had it for a month and have had zero flaws so far. I think my money was well spent.

    After 2 weeks of printing with the Bambu Lab A1 mini, I can confidently say it punches well above its weight class. Designed for compact spaces but packed with advanced features, the A1 mini is an ideal printer for beginners, hobbyists, and even pros looking for a reliable secondary machine. Pros Excellent Print Quality Right Out of the Box Minimal tuning needed. Auto calibration and flow tuning make the first layers consistently solid. Fast Printing Speeds Default speeds up to 500mm/s rival much larger printers. Despite its size, it's speedy without sacrificing quality. Automated Calibration Fully automated bed leveling, flow rate tuning, and vibration compensation (input shaping). No manual leveling headaches. Multicolor Printing with AMS Lite (optional) The AMS Lite expands your creativity with multicolor prints—rare for printers in this price range. Compact Footprint Fits easily on a desktop without feeling cramped. Great for apartments or tight workspaces. Quiet Operation Whisper-quiet when printing in Silent or Balanced mode. Ideal for shared spaces. Bambu Studio & Cloud Integration Intuitive slicer and remote management. Seamless cloud printing via app/web is a game-changer. Reliable Out-of-the-Box Experience Pre-assembled and well-packed. Up and running within 30 minutes. Cons Proprietary Ecosystem Small Build Volume 180×180×180mm is decent for daily prints, but may be restrictive for larger projects. Cloud Dependency for Some Features Some functionality (like pushing prints from phone) requires cloud access. Not ideal for fully offline workflows. In summary, this is definitely the best printer for entry level. You do not even need to be tech savvy to start printing. The setup is amazingly easy, I would say easier to setup than some ink prints I own in the past. Overall, if you do not need large prints, you can't go wrong with this model, especially at the sale price.

    Best Starter 3D Printer

    I bought the Bambu Lab A1 Mini at Best Buy and it’s been the perfect entry into 3D printing. Setup was quick, calibration is automatic, and prints come out great without a lot of adjustments. It’s compact, quiet, and fits easily on a desk. Even without multi-color extras, it’s reliable and easy enough that a beginner can get professional-looking results right away. If you’re new to 3D printing, this is the one to start with.

    Nice and easy for beginners! Quiet and compact. If you’re looking for small to medium designs, this is the best one to get. All instructions are provided, and it’s easy to setup.

    My first 3d printer. Made the right choice!

    I've waited some time to purchase a 3d printer, with many friends having different models. I made the right choice going with the Bambu Mini (I have friends with other Bambus, Enders, etc.). The thing that sold me on Bambu is the ease of setup and use. I didn't have to mess with bed leveling (after watching friends struggle with other brands and printing lots of spaghetti). I ran through the setup which was super easy and took less than 20 mins I think and was up and printing. My first prints were perfect! One of my friends (he uses an Ender), said he thought I was getting lucky with some prints and not to get mad when it messed up. Well, so far it hasn't messed up and I think he's reconsidering his choice in printers. I'd also maybe opt for the AMS for multi spools/colors. I didn't think I'd care about other colors but once you see the huge variety of things you can print, it's something to consider. I purchased mostly for printing enclosures for electronics projects but there is so much cool stuff you can print! It's amazing to stand there and watch your parts just come alive from a spool of plastic filament. It's a game changer. If you haven't had one, get one. If you have one and have issues/fight with setting it up, get a Bambu Lab printer... you won't regret it. Thanks Bambu! You will help me take my maker skills to the next level!

    Great machine, but kept getting "y axis" errors

    Bought for my 10 year old during the holiday at the sale price of $199. While the unit was easy to setup and use, and the app is very intiuitive, the machine kept giving a "y belt" error. We had lots of success printing and using the machine, but with the constant error messages support recommended replacing the y belt. I ended up returning and upgrading to the A1 which to me seems quieter, and without any issues as well as the larger build plate.

    This 3D printer has exceeded my expectations. Setup was straightforward, and within a short time I was printing clean, detailed models with consistent results. The print quality is impressive, with smooth layers and strong finished pieces. It’s user-friendly enough for beginners but still powerful enough for more advanced projects. The printer runs reliably, handles filament well, and the bed adhesion has been excellent. I’ve used it for everything from small detailed prints to functional parts, and it performs great every time. Overall, this is a solid, dependable 3D printer and a great value for the price. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get into 3D printing or upgrade their current setup
