    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.

    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!

    I have a few printers, my three Bambu printers are my favorite by far! I have two A1 and 1 A1 mini. All preform flawlessly and with minimal upkeep. It even will remind you when it’s time to maintenance itself.

    The best 3D printer!

    This printer is the best one I've purchased! This is my 3rd printer, and I'm amazed at the technology that has evolved in 3D printing. This machine automatically levels and takes all the guesswork out of printing. Changing filament is so easy and quick! The user interface is clear and easy and the software is easy to find just about anything you want to print right from your phone! (or laptop) The only downside is the build plate size although it is a mini. The build plate is really big enough to print most any size small to medium items. The app has a camera you can monitor your prints and the machine can be set to do a time-lapse video of all your prints if so desired. You can start pause or stop printing from your phone or computer. I personally won't buy anything but bambu lab products going forward!

    Love it. I'm new to 3d printer's so no big learning curve with the A1 mini. Prints so far have been great as long as you set type of filament to correct type.. before trying to print.

    An awesome 3d printer for the price point and great for people looking to get into the hobby BUY GLUE STICKS THOUGH - after a while the PEI plate does wear out and getting a glue stick will help with bed adhesion

    1/2 hour unboxed assembled and printing. only problem filament kept pulling out of the extruder. I made a custom filament holder problem solved. It worked so well I'm thinking it's an opportunity for a new product. I really like this machine.

    This printer has been a great entry into the 3D printing space! This printer is so affordable and has been an awesome learning experience. Highly recommended for anyone who is on the fence- it’s not perfect but we have been so happy with it overall. The value is excellent!

    This printer has been fantastic. I owned a 3D printer a decade ago, and it was non-stop tinkering. This thing just does the job it's designed to do, and it is MUCH cheaper than the one I owned previously. Makerworld is a great resource as well. I've found so many useful prints.

    If you're looking for a small-factor 3d printer that does it all out of the box, look no further than the Bambu A1 Mini. I managed to get one before the price increase due to the tariffs, but at around $250 + taxes this was a steal. Prints in amazing quality with none of the hassle you have to endure with Ender 3 models from Creality. In addition, everything is automatically calibrated upon setup and can be redone as needed when prints have issues (which I have not yet encountered). Definitely would buy another one if I had the room for it.

    I have not stopped using the A1 Mini since I purchased it. It prints really well and quickly with very little fuss required. My only complaint is that the filament can get stuck when it's at awkward angles.

    Phenomenal printer and unmatched price. I would recommend this to beginers or seasoned printers. Bambu software is easy to learn and the quick change heads make it easy up increase or decrease detail as needed

    I love this 3D printer. Great for someone like me who needs everything dumbed down. I am very tech-challenged and I have no issues with figuring this out. And if I do have any issues tons of support is available. Just wish I had the A1 with Ams lite because it's a little bigger and can do multiple colors without changing out the filament.
