While I am not new to 3D printing, started in 2018. The P2S is my second Bambu and second core XY printer. A year ago I wanted to jump on the P1S, but it lacked the advanced features of the newer A1 (easy nozzle swaps, flow calibration and touch screen.) While the A1 has been a fantastic machine, albeit a messy layout with its AMS lite configuration. I wanted to be able to print enclosed and have higher temps available. The H series looked amazing, but simply don't have enough room for where my life path is heading. When P2S finally became available, bought it on day one. And while P2S may not be the absolute beast Bambu printer. Let me try to tell you why the P2S is the printer you should buy.
Main reasons to buy:
Simple clip style nozzle swaps 0.2, 0.4 0.6, 0.8. Buy spares in case of clog or special projects.
Flow Calibration.
Camera and time lapse are pretty good now.
Great touch Screen.
Love the humor on the display after each print.
Easily print up to ASA filament on default settings.
Prefer printing from PC, but app is decent on certain devices.
AMS 2 is heated. Just can't print and dry simultaneously, yet.
Holiday season '25 had great 0% finance options with Best Buy Citi card. This may not apply to all or when you purchase.
Downsides:
AMS 2 Pro hates cardboard spools (cardboard is not good in AMS). Buy refillable spool brands like Bambu and Sunlu till you have a few spools stocked.
Not as quiet as my A1. Not too bad unless you place in living room.
The internal filter may not be enough if printing ABS/ASA. External venting is up to the user creating a system at this point.
Sweet Spot Bambu:
The P2S sits in the sweet spot of ability to print filaments that are more functional and not just trinkets and toys. The encloser is not heated, but does get up to temp for many of the better structural plastics. I have printed PLA, PETG, TPU up to ASA. Everything prints nearly perfect with standard settings of the printer. There are even tougher plastics you can try. I am now able to print what I wanted more so than the A1's limits. And now taller prints are less prone to failure over bed slinger printers.
It may be hard to justify an $800 3D printer unless you make money from it when the A series is so good for more than half as much. Take it from me. If you buy either A1 printer. You will quickly want another printer. Had the P2S with the best of the A1, P1S and a splash of X1C been around a year ago. It would be the only printer I would I have today. Sure multi-color prints are a poop nightmare compared to the top H2C offering. And if lots of color prints are your thing, there are options now for similar money (U1). Usually, I only print one and two color items 70%+ of the time. I do also have the HT-AMS and have done a few 5 color prints, and they came out flawless. Just print while you sleep and make sure you have a great big poop bucket.
While I thought my A1 w/AMS lite would go up for sale after the P2S arrived. I seem to keep printing with it. So, maybe everyone is meant to have multiple printers when results on Bambu is this good and reliable.
As for the only real complaints, and it's only nitpicking and not a Bambu issue for the most part. Aside from needing to print an exhaust option to vent ABS/ASA - VOC's since the internal filter seems to not be sealed enough with the cabinet. It is the AMS 2 pro, that I take some issue with. I knew the heater only dried when idle. Did not know the rolling of spools while drying only happens when idle and filament not fed into ports. So basically, to dry filament and use auto roll. Spools must not be unwound, unless they update the feature.
Also be aware when you buy filament. Try to get plastic spools as much as possible. Sunlu and Bambu both sell spools that are reusable. And once you have a few of those, you will be able to peel Cardboard spools and mount them on the sunlu or Bambu spool. Cardboard spools, even with printed plastic adapters, constantly foul if you print multi-color projects. I am using the A1 with its AMS lite to run out the last of my cardboard spools. It has been a champ at this.
Overall, buy what you can afford. Bambu is "current" king for a reason. Reliable. Ease of use. Parts are readily available, if ever needed. Bambu prints give extremely consistent results. Tinkering days are over.

After doing our due diligence on what was available and still being price conscious, we ultimately settled on the Bambu Lab P2S AMS Combo, and it has exceeded expectations.
It was a Christmas gift for my 13-year-old, who specifically wanted a 3D printer to bring her digital art creations to life. What impressed me immediately was how intuitive the setup was — she was able to get it up and running largely on her own with minimal help.
The AMS (Automatic Material System) has been a standout feature. It allows up to four different filaments to be loaded at once, making it easy to create multi-colored prints without manual filament changes. Being able to design something digitally and see it printed in multiple colors has been especially exciting and motivating for her.
Print quality has been consistently excellent right out of the box, and the overall experience feels polished and reliable rather than something that requires constant tweaking or troubleshooting.
For the performance, features, and ease of use you get at this price point, it delivers serious bang for your buck. It’s hard to find a better value in this category.

The Bambu Lab P2S has completely changed my expectations for what a consumer 3D printer can be. This is by far the most reliable and low-maintenance printer I have ever used.
Setup was fast and straightforward. From unboxing to first successful print took very little time, and everything worked exactly as expected. Automatic bed leveling, calibration, and monitoring remove almost all of the trial and error that usually comes with 3D printing.
Print quality is excellent out of the box. Layer consistency, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish are all impressive without needing constant tuning. It is also extremely fast while still maintaining quality, which is something I did not think was realistically achievable at this price point.
The enclosed design is a major plus for printing more demanding materials, and the overall build quality feels solid and well-engineered. Paired with the AMS, multi-color and multi-material printing is smooth and reliable, not a gimmick.
What stands out most is dependability. I can start a print and trust it to finish without babysitting. Failed prints are rare, and the software ecosystem is polished and easy to use.
If you are tired of constantly tweaking, leveling, and troubleshooting other 3D printers, the P2S is absolutely worth the investment. It feels like a professional tool designed for real productivity, not just a hobby machine. Highly recommended.

Fantastic printer. It printed right out of the box without any issues. The print quality is great, and I would highly recommend it. My last printer was an Ender 3 Pro that I heavily modified and upgraded to have similar features to a Bambu printer, but it came with lots of headaches. The P2S is easy to use, prints hassle-free, and is very fast. The Bambu Studio app on both PC and mobile is great and easy to use. The built-in camera feature is also very helpful for long prints when you’re not home, and combined with the AI, errors are caught quickly. If you're new to 3d printing I highly recommend Bambu Labs and the P2S!

This may be one of my favorite purchases. It is so user friendly. The ability to print with multiple colors without having to swap filaments is so awesome. The Bambu Handy app is very easy to use and you can start prints whenever or wherever you are. I also purchased 2 additional AMS 2 pro units and also looking to buy 1 more unit to have the ability and ease to print 16 different colors or filament types. The AMS units are also used to keep the filament dry which is very important with having flawless prints. I highly recommend this unit even for first time printer buyers!

If you’re on the fence about getting a 3d printer, get this one. After all the youtube and i ternet of looking for a 3d printer it kept bring me back to this one. The set up was super easy and quick. Right after you just begin printing. And the prints come out amazing. I dont know about other printers but this one just works right out the box. Couldnt be happier with this purchase.

The Bambu Labs P2S is absolutely great! Out of the box, after a simple assemble and automatic calibration, I started printing with no effort on my part. The tuning is automatic and the bed leveling is automatic. I just push print and the P2S does the rest. The prints so far are coming out flawless with minimal or no layer lines. If you are looking to get into 3d printing, this thing is a must. It new user friendly and a solid machine.

Having years off experience with the 3d printer models of the last 10 years, I thought I was out of the game. I thought I was done. I was tired of misprints, warping, and every other form of disappointment one can achieve through printing with this old dinosaurs. Until I found Bambu Lab printers. I didn’t know exactly how much better the technology became until I purchased the Bambu Lab P2S combo. With everything automatic now, not having to mess with Z offsets and leveling the bed and adhesion, this printer has freed my mind from worry so I can focus on creating/designing/implementing. I will never buy another brand of printer other than Bambu Lab ever again. I’m a lifetime loyalist and would gladly recommend these printers to anyone of any age! If you got out of printing because you got tired of all the hassles, now’s the time to jump back in. All of the Bambu Lab printers have great reviews, but I’d say start with the P2S combo. I never used multicolor before and let me tell you, I was nervous. But again, Bambu Lab’s technology made it virtually impossible to mess up. Hesitate no more. Go get it!!

I have zero experience with 3D printers so I watched a bunch of videos to try and figure out if I wanted to learn something new, and if so, which printer should I invest in. Turns out one of my friends had just purchased the P2S and was printing like crazy. I stopped by his house and got a tour of this printer and what he’s printed and instantly fell in love with the Bambu Lab P2S printer. Of course it was sold out with no date it would be back in stock. I signed up on an app called Trackalacker and put the Best Buy link into the app. A week later, while driving, I got the text it was in stock. Figuring it would sell out immediately, I jumped on the app, added it to my cart and checked out! In less than a minute, it had already sold out. 2 days later, it was delivered. I opened the box, set it up and ran thru the calibrations and was up and running! Luckily i had pre-purchased several spools of filament before the printer arrived as no filament comes with it. Ao far, it’s been flawless! Great prints and so many ideas for future prints. This printer was a perfect choice for being a novice.

The Bambu Lab P1S is hands-down the best investment I’ve made next to the H2C. Right out of the box, the setup was seamless, and I was printing high-quality parts 30 minutes.
What sets this apart is the perfect balance of speed and reliability. The full enclosure allows me to tackle advanced materials like ASA and PETG without warping, while the core-XY motion system delivers incredible detail even at high speeds. It’s a 'set it and forget it' machine that actually delivers on its promises. If you want a printer that spends more time creating and less time being calibrated, this is the one!"
Why it stands out:
Blazing Fast: Significantly reduces print times compared to traditional bedslingers.
Enclosed Design: Great for temperature stability and keeping noise (and fumes) contained.
Plug-and-Play: The auto-bed leveling and vibration compensation work like magic.

I spent weeks doing research on which 3D printer would be the best to start with - the P2S has been nothing short of spectacular- little bit of work required to get comfortable with settings but at this point I’ve run many kilos of various filaments with little to no issues - I would recommend this unit to anyone interested in 3d printing

I have been waiting 2 months for this product to be released. From the time arriving through setup and calibration, I was printing quality items within an hour. The simplicity of 3D printing has come along way over the last 6-7 years. I would recommend the brand and this product to anyone considering getting into 3D FDM printing. It is in the mid price range of printers but offers some great perks such as multi-color prints with a variety of material types-PLA, Petg, ABS, and engineered filaments. This is a great printer for you and your family.

Easy setup and perfect 3D prints right out of the box. Couldn’t be easier to get started and have excellent results compared to my 5 year old printer technology. Love the Bambu Handy app which allows me to start, stop and view my print from anywhere! Definitely, will be adding another to my printing bench. Be sure and get the Combo so you have the AMS2 Pro filament feed which opens up another multi-color printing convenience. A+++++

I've been watching this model since its first announcement. I saw it sell in other countries first, but I guess P2S was waiting for the H2S announcement in the United States. Anyway, I'm very curious about the price because it's an upgrade from the P1S. From my understanding, it uses the latest nozzle—the same one used on the H2D—which allows 30-second nozzle swaps. This is a huge upgrade for me in a single-nozzle system. Besides other upgrades that make me think it is even better than the X1C.
I've tried various printing tasks with it and haven't had any issues, except occasionally when printing ASA with a 0.2mm nozzle. I've seen others have similar issues, and it might be the nature of the nozzle that makes printing ASA with a 0.2mm nozzle nearly impossible. However, ASA is the most challenging printing material I've ever used. The self-maintenance and debugging manual is pretty clear. (I was really harsh on this printer—I basically disassembled the entire extruder module to fix an ASA filament jam on the third day I had the printer.) I was able to fix the issue easily by following the steps, but as a 3D printer owner, you need some level of hands-on ability, right?
Overall, it's pretty reliable. $850 for the AMS2 Pro + P2S printer combo is a steal compared to $550 for the AMS + P1S combo. You can expect about 99% of your prints to be handled successfully by this machine.

Lots of improvements from the Bambu Lab P1S. Really like the hot swappable nozzle change option. You get the upgraded AMS 2 pro aswell which has the filament drying capability. Also the upgraded camera is one of my favorite changes from the P1S. Its really makes a difference and with the AI spaghetti detection has saved me a few times from a failed print.

Took the 3D Plunge and I'm Blown Away

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
As a technophile, I've been looking to get into 3D printing for both myself and because I have young children. My wife and friends have been urging me to check it out but I just didn't feel like I was ready because of various issues I considered deal-breakers. Then one friend told me to check out Bambu Labs, as they fixed all the hacks and compromises that had me hesitating and here we are.
I actually almost impulse bought the X1C when it went on flash sale here, but then I saw rumors of the new P2S set to launch any day that basically fixed all the minor issues with the X1C that were also upgrades for the P1S.
Needless to say, I'm glad I waited and for the price, I'm absolutely blown away by the quality of prints and the ease of use. If you've used any moderately complex software, you'll have no problems at all using Bambu Studio to make minor edits and changes to prints but realistically you won't have to change much at all other than set the filament colors from your AMS2 Pro.
The AMS2 Pro is one of the major benefits of this package, as it increases your multi-color printing capabilities to the 4 in the AMS to the 1 on the side. I actually added a 2nd AMS2 Pro, which can be done with no additional hardware with the P2S, that gives me 8 total colors by giving up the side feed. This really opens up the ability to do multi-color prints with ease, as the P2S and Bambu Studio automatically handle swapping and purging the filament for you allowing you to just wait for the total print to finish. You just need to load and dry your filament in the AMS before starting the print. That's the other major benefit of the AMS2 Pro, it will dry your filament by heating and removing moisture, which is very important for quality printing especially with certain materials like PETG. Wet/humid filament will have more trouble sticking, extruding uniformly or keeping form while printing. Get ready to learn about silica gel and humidity.
Even if you use more colors than your AMS2 Pro can hold, you can change mid-print too, but obviously that means you have to keep an eye on the printer and slowing down the print if it stops before you swap filaments. The traditional method of printing was to use monofilament and then paint the resulting models and prints, which is its own hobby, but for now it is just more efficient and more fun for me and my kids to just do the multi-color prints.
The only downside of multi-color prints is that you do use a lot more filament as the hot end will waste some filament to purge the old color while the new color is primed so that you don't get a color mix or bleed. The way to counter this is to do multiple prints if possible, instead of just 1 print at a time so that the amount of purge is fixed and reduced by N number of prints. The next level comes with the H2C, which uses the Vortek 6 head system which swaps the actual hot-ends so that there is no purge waste and allows you to print with 6 different colors at once. This might be my only regret, that I didn't just take the plunge and go right for the H2C, which is also larger along with the ability to print multiple colors, faster and with less waste.
There is very little learning curve when printing with PLA, but using different filaments do require additional research and can be more difficult to work with. I have printed with PETG as well and it is a little bit more finicky. There's also TPU and ABS for more durable prints, but you will want to be aware those latter two can have fumes that you will want to make sure you have good ventilation.
One of the biggest benefits of this 3D Printer however, is that it is a great way for me to spend time and bond with my young children. They are fascinated by this little machine that prints awesome pop toys for them and their friends so it is a STEM gateway for them while I get to spend time with them picking and choosing what to print next. I haven't stopped printing on this thing since I set it up 2 weeks ago!!! The next step will be to design and modify some prints and eventually, I'll get to print some of the things I wanted to print for myself, like power tool holders, brackets, various other things like that.
Until then we'll be printing Christmas articulating snowmen for kids friends and teachers, Kpop toys, articulating dragons, all the cool stuff that impresses the kids and their parents too. I did go ahead and spend a few hundred on filament in multiple colors, and the results so far have been amazing.
Definitely looking to grab that H2C or its successor at some point but no regrets taking the plunge with this P2S, and judging by some of the hobbyists I've seen, this is pretty normal as the only bottleneck to creativity is how fast and how much you can print at once. I've just scratched the surface, but I am enjoying my 2 week crash course on 3D Printing so far!!!

This printer has been nothing short of excellent to me since I received it middle of November. Besides having to print a few QOL upgrades, for the most part it is ready to sing right out of the box.
If you are new to 3D printing, and this fits in your budget, then there is no better choice to get started.

It's a Bambu Lab Printer

It's a Bambu Lab printer, what else do you expect??? I was able to get everything set up within 15 minutes, I did have to follow the video guide since this is my first ever Bambu Lab printer so the packaging was different. Compared to my Anycubic Kobra S1 Combo, the P2S packaged much better and has more cushion. Only time I ever have problem printing it was my fault, since I touched the PEI plate and the print didn't stick, however, after washing with warm soapy water it was good again. Print quality is perfect and it's fast, unlike my Kobra S1. This printer is well-built and it shows since I haven't have any bad experience with it, I have own it for 3 months so far. Great printer, highly recommended.
