Great work as always! Enjoyed all the testing! Seems like most of your issues will be resolved with some slicer tuning. Seems like a decent machine so far! Can’t wait to see what more you do with it!
+1 on open sourcing RFID. manufacturers could work together to standardise then either filament manufacturers could add RFID to their filament or you could add RFID tags yourself to any roll and program it yourself
yeah, it should be possible for anyone to create a way to program your own tags.it just depends exactly how each printers does it. some might have all the details coded to the tag. or they might have the printer store the details and the tag is just a very short code that the printer references to get the print specs.
Wow that was a good size comparison with the ender 5 plus. The ender 5 isn't small by no means and the K2 plus is a monster next to it. The dumpster was cool, shout out to Steven Lightspeed. Great video buddy
Yeah, it was a good place to put the printer for people to possibly get a size comparison. I am going to reinforce the printer cart 😆. The dumpster came out great! The Light Speed does some fantastic print in place files! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

Nice review. Bambu Lab X1 Carbon is on sale at the time this was posted, so it's actually cheaper than the K2. I do like the tried and true linear rails on the X axis over the carbon rods, however, the verdict may still be out on the carbon rods. Your video volume was a bit low.
Yeah, X1C and K2 were competitively priced for a moment 😂. I do like the linear rails over the carbon rods. I played the video on 3 platforms before posting. Odd 🤔
@@TripodsGarage Are you using a meter to check the volume levels? You should be targeting -15 to -10 db for dialog. This video's coming in around -25 to -20 db.
X1C owner here. The X1C is amazing and everything, the bad part of this printer is the print volume and for me this printer is a little bit over price, I can’t imagine how much is going to cost the new printer of Bambu Labs. I love Bambu Labs ecosystem to be honest, really user friendly. But, the K2 got all my attention only for the price, and I think for the first time Creality is doing a good job on this printer
I agree with Tripod’s Garage. I just use my printer’s IP with :4408 tacked on the end. Unfortunately, in the FLUIDD interface the K2 camera cannot be added. The code is in FLUIDD interface, but it doesn’t work. It’s weird, because in Creality Print or Orca Slicer (with the K2 Plus configuration added) one can access the FLIUDD interface with the camera functioning by clicking on the Device Tab in either slicer. The K2 Plus camera video can be seen at the printer’s IP with :8000 specifying the port. I really wish the Mainsail interface could be available on the K2 because I am more familiar with it. I run Klipper and Mainsail on my K1 Max.
Nice Video! That file on the Panda being messed up sucks but that dumpster was amazing quality. The Benchy and knitted character were great! How long until the community finds a way to add reptile heaters and hygrometer to the CFS? I want to print a glass height extension/ vent for the top of the printer to keep the teflon filament tube from rubbing when mine arrives. I am still patiently awaiting mine.
Many thanks for watching and commenting. Seems that you are one of the few that actually watched the whole video to see the prints. While the trolls just watch long enough to post a comment. If people watch my Ender 5 Plus PSU video or the CR6SE video, they would realize that I have not had a good run with Creality. However, people have their camps...
My CFS gets to 33c just from sitting ontop of the printer and its currently at 6% to 7% relative humidity from placing a 1lb bag of desicant in the 4th roller area plus the 2 desicant bags inside the desicant cavities. Watched this video because I'm trying to track down some z-banding, but it might just be my machine.
Hi, I am curious, where can I find the panda model and the other dumpster stl? I want to compare my K1 to this one and see how big difference I have with it compared to this printer
With a purge tower and appropriate settings in the slicer, I have absolutely no problems with color bleeding on my K2. In any event an editable table that specifies the purge volume when changing from any one of 8 filament colors to any other one of 8. In the worst case, if color bleeding still happens when switching between any two particular colors, the default purge volume can be increased for that change. This allows one to fine tune purge volumes for filaments from sources other than Creality.
I have not seen a review about how the creality app works with this printer. I don’t have a creality printer, but downloaded the app once and it looked like an ad riddled garbage app. I know this is secondary, but this is a function I often use with my X1C and at least for me, is one of the reasons that keep me from moving to the K2+.
John,looks like the best Creality printer yet. Love the reference to Taco Bell, I think many of us have had a similar experience. Will be interesting to see how this holds up.
@@woodwaker1 Taco Bell had to be added 😂. Yeah, I will be using this printer a lot for a new build. Let’s see how it performs! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Lol they pulled an "ATM Machine" with "Creality CFS" :P Interesting that I keep seeing people's wishful thinking saying the CFS is a dryER when it's not heated, was that just a rumor or did Creality promise that at some point?
Anyone else feel like they are holding a grudge against creality for owning the market for so many years and doing nothing with it? Look what creality came up with after Bambu forced their hand. I don’t know if I could purchase this printer.
Looks like a great printer, with the exception of all that wasted product… I think the benefit of multicoloured prints will rapidly lose its appeal with the continuous expense of wasted filament. The market should be looking at less wasteful options for multicolour while retaining simplicity, affordability and reliability. If Bamboo releases what people hope their next printer will be it’s possible this Creality printer with have a very short moment in the spotlight. So given the expense of these things I’ll wait for the first quarter of ‘25 to end before I’d commit to anything.
Even with owning 4 Bambu printers, 3 of them with AMS, I find myself using less of colors. Most of the time I will try to save the color for a name plate or something that is simple and flat, that doesn't require that many filament swaps.
I'm still so clueless wether this one is a good machine or not as I see one person telling it's an absolute garbage and then you saying it's great and almost flawless I don't know what to think of these reviews now
To all you bambu guy's that come on and knock CREALITY and say no one has problems with bambu, you are a fool. All printers have problems, But not all printer Co.s STEAL YOUR INFO such as bambu

Junk printer, I just returned mines after only 2 weeks of use. For $1500+ I expected more from Creality. Nothing but issues from my experience, got me mad asf! Filament jammed/clogs, blown extruder, faulty flament runout sensor, retraction issues, wifi issue, tons of error codes, I could go on and on. And before anyone say it's user error, it wasn't. Creality just haven't learn anything from their past failures ala K1 series. Welp, I'll be saving my money for Bambus next large printer.
I don't think it's user error.. you just sound like you either rolled it down your stairs or are a serious bambu fanboy. XD This printer is not perfect by any stretch but there are alot of reviews saying it's pretty darn good. If you aren't just a bambu plant then I am sorry for your bad luck cause that's a crazy number of things to go wrong with a single unit in one week

@@TheSucc33d Please show a long time review with something else than just PLA. My experience is very similar to psx1986. It can't handle ABS at all, always clogs. PETG gives terrible z-banding. Filament runout sensor does not trigger. and so on. This printer is a joke.
@@TheSucc33d Hardware wise they have made at least 4 big mistakes. The long hotend that will clog way to easy is the biggest one. The heavy bed with just two screws is the second. Not including sensor for filament stop feeding is the third. And the sound of the CFS is the forth. Then both the firmware and slicer is in really bad condition but that was more expected...
They are sending PLA since PLA is the only material that works in the machine. It is worthless on the materials that needs a chamber like ABS, everyone just get clogs. Kind of defeats the whole purpose of the printer.
Guess people don’t pay attention, there were different brand filament swaps. Plus even the smaller model had the same issues. As he mentioned that the model itself might be the issue. The other models didn’t have any of those issues.
@ Was it the same black filament throughout? Tripod mentioned that there were 4 spool swaps on the white. Also can you provide a time stamp on the ears where there is banding?

That's not really enough time with a printer to give a thorough review or see if there were any issues... and speaking of issues, it doesn't seem like a fair test since you admitted that you personally screwed up every model you made except the dumpster.
I have an ender 3 V3 Plus and it's my last printer from Creality. Pure garbage. Bambu printers untill now, printing with NO PROBLEMS. Imagine to spend 1,5k USD and buy another BS printer from Creality. No way.
Subpar printer. The prints look good compared to a ender sure. But nowhere near the quality you can get from bambu everyday. Shoot the cobra max print better then that for Half the price.
Bambu being ultra quality is a myth, just people don't have any idea how to setup their printer, I can get exactly same quality off my ender 3 v2 as I get off my x1c, just takes 4 times as long 😂😂
I watched your review of the k2+ 3D printer and trusted your recommendation, which led me to purchase the product. Unfortunately, I’ve been facing a serious issue-my printer was never delivered, and the company has completely ignored all my attempts to contact them. I’ve emailed, reached out on social media, and even tried their customer support channels, but there has been no response. It’s deeply frustrating, especially considering the significant amount of money involved. As someone who promotes and supports this product, I believe you have a responsibility to hold the manufacturer accountable for their actions. Your reviews greatly influence purchasing decisions, and when issues like this arise, buyers are left feeling betrayed. Please consider addressing this issue publicly or helping bring attention to it. Supporting a product that treats its customers this way reflects poorly on both the brand and those endorsing it. I hope you’ll take this matter seriously.
Oh no! That really sucks! Amazing how you neglected to copy and paste the company name and email addresses you sent these correspondence to. Instead you are copying and pasting the same exact BS on every video. If this is true, provide the username you used on each social media platform so it can be verified.
@@Firstleaker Yeah, I just checked other reviews videos. Air your grievances on the Facebook Group page, or on X. Given that there nothing to backup this person’s claim, it just seems to be another person trolling for their camp.
"I don't seen anything wrong with this benchy" ?? really? I mean its ok - but to say it has no problems... We just gonna act like we can't see how bad that railing is drooping down in a couple areas, how the lettering on the back is completely unreadable, of how bad the final top layers look on both the roof and the deck railing.
@@YokohlCreek - As I mentioned in the video, 3 years ago it would take 3hrs to get a benchy this nice. I could easily dissect the Bambu benchies from my 4 Bambu printers as well. For around 14min, it is a good benchy.
@@TripodsGarage LOL - are you under some impression that Bambu printers any better - news flash - they are not, they come out about the same in quality - just meh.

The H2D oh really 🤔. Those so called leaked pictures look so amazing 😂. Tell me something. Is your time worth money? Do you work for free? I have no issues on not recommending products. I have reviewed machines from Elegoo, Sovol, and Creality that I didn’t recommend. Sovol dropped me, and I could care less.
@@jeff-l3d1m I don’t care and never will. See it doesn’t matter if someone gives a good or bad review. You know you why? That is because there will always be people from the camps they support either trashing you for not recommending the product, and claiming you are biased against that brand. Or the opposing camp sees a good review on competing brand, they will just troll and downvote and leave posts similar to this 🤔. See by you commenting just helps the algorithm, and engagement. So in a way you are now supporting a brand that you are not in camp with. Thanks for the engagement 😂👍
As I mentioned in the video, I am more of a practical prints kind of person. However, if my wife, daughters, or if I get an order, I will print whatever they want.
@@TripodsGarage OK so that's all on you then. Don't blame this behavior on your wife or daughters or customers. You could have chosen anything else. Because it was called a "test". After decades, people seem to still associate 3d printers with junk because that's all "creators" show them printing. Like what exactly do I want with a panda or benchy? Remember back in the early 2010's when people were printing nothing but yoda busts as their "tests"? It's nearly 2025 son.
@@GoatZilla Imagine it is almost 2025 and there are still people complaining about what others are still printing on 3D Printers. Then those people take to review videos to show how much they disapprove of what people are printing. People print what they want to print, and they do not need your permission to do so. My wife went onto Creality Cloud, and wanted to see the panda printed. You print whatever you want, and others will do what they want.

The problem is that the long unicorn nozzle requires at least double the purge volume of Bambu in order to help eliminate color bleed.

Subpar printer. The prints look good compared to a ender sure. But nowhere near the quality you can get from bambu everyday. Shoot the cobra max print better then that for Half the price.
Bambu being ultra quality is a myth, just people don't have any idea how to setup their printer, I can get exactly same quality off my ender 3 v2 as I get off my x1c, just takes 4 times as long 😂😂
Lol. Looks like the Creality repeated mistakes of previous generations of printers
Creality is crap.
So is Prusa
BAMBU IS CRAP
I watched your review of the k2+ 3D printer and trusted your recommendation, which led me to purchase the product. Unfortunately, I’ve been facing a serious issue-my printer was never delivered, and the company has completely ignored all my attempts to contact them.
I’ve emailed, reached out on social media, and even tried their customer support channels, but there has been no response. It’s deeply frustrating, especially considering the significant amount of money involved.
As someone who promotes and supports this product, I believe you have a responsibility to hold the manufacturer accountable for their actions. Your reviews greatly influence purchasing decisions, and when issues like this arise, buyers are left feeling betrayed.
Please consider addressing this issue publicly or helping bring attention to it. Supporting a product that treats its customers this way reflects poorly on both the brand and those endorsing it. I hope you’ll take this matter seriously.
Oh no! That really sucks! Amazing how you neglected to copy and paste the company name and email addresses you sent these correspondence to. Instead you are copying and pasting the same exact BS on every video. If this is true, provide the username you used on each social media platform so it can be verified.
@@Firstleaker Yeah, I just checked other reviews videos. Air your grievances on the Facebook Group page, or on X. Given that there nothing to backup this person’s claim, it just seems to be another person trolling for their camp.
"I don't seen anything wrong with this benchy" ?? really? I mean its ok - but to say it has no problems... We just gonna act like we can't see how bad that railing is drooping down in a couple areas, how the lettering on the back is completely unreadable, of how bad the final top layers look on both the roof and the deck railing.
@@YokohlCreek - As I mentioned in the video, 3 years ago it would take 3hrs to get a benchy this nice. I could easily dissect the Bambu benchies from my 4 Bambu printers as well. For around 14min, it is a good benchy.
@@TripodsGarage LOL - are you under some impression that Bambu printers any better - news flash - they are not, they come out about the same in quality - just meh.
@@YokohlCreek- News flash! Reading something that isn’t there and I didn’t say! Nowhere did I say Bambu benchies are better.
@@TripodsGarage great then we agree your 4 Bambu printers are crap.
@ - Here I thought my dyslexia was bad! Keep living in your fictional world where you read things that are not there.
Anything creality to me has been junk what ever the price the more expensive the more trash it is
Imagine that you have nothing better to do, but to search for videos to talk trash about. Don’t even bother to watch them. The other camps have nothing better to do…
I tried to watch your video but honestly something is very wrong with your monetisation. At the first 7 minutes more than 8 times stopped for ads which for me is unacceptable and made me stop watching.
This is all automated by UA-cam. File a complaint with them
@TripodsGarage I just wanted to let you know about this because it hasn't happened to me to any other channels and honestly affects you more than me.
Didnt happen to me fyi. 😊
My bambu a1 prints better . And I paid 300 bucks
Standard creality subpar quality on prints. Stay away folks
I seen same type of issues with Bambu.
Go drink some more cool-aid.
Ugly prints again
Clearly just backing their camp, and didn’t watch the video 😂. Would rather spend their time making negative comments on videos to express their loyalty to their camp.
@ you can compare Creality vs Flashforge m5 vs Bambulab and will see
bamboo h2d is coming, cant trust all these review and is not from real owner , they get the new printer for free to do these review.
The H2D oh really 🤔. Those so called leaked pictures look so amazing 😂. Tell me something. Is your time worth money? Do you work for free? I have no issues on not recommending products. I have reviewed machines from Elegoo, Sovol, and Creality that I didn’t recommend. Sovol dropped me, and I could care less.
@@TripodsGarage you do care . LOL
@@jeff-l3d1m I don’t care and never will. See it doesn’t matter if someone gives a good or bad review. You know you why? That is because there will always be people from the camps they support either trashing you for not recommending the product, and claiming you are biased against that brand. Or the opposing camp sees a good review on competing brand, they will just troll and downvote and leave posts similar to this 🤔. See by you commenting just helps the algorithm, and engagement. So in a way you are now supporting a brand that you are not in camp with. Thanks for the engagement 😂👍
@@TripodsGarage see i told you you do care
@@jeff-l3d1mthanks for your continued engagement on this video 👍
It's nearly 2025. How about we all stop printing useless junk?
As I mentioned in the video, I am more of a practical prints kind of person. However, if my wife, daughters, or if I get an order, I will print whatever they want.
@TripodsGarage someone ordered a scaled up and small panda?
@ It was called a test. If someone did order one, yes I would print it.
@@TripodsGarage OK so that's all on you then. Don't blame this behavior on your wife or daughters or customers. You could have chosen anything else. Because it was called a "test".
After decades, people seem to still associate 3d printers with junk because that's all "creators" show them printing. Like what exactly do I want with a panda or benchy?
Remember back in the early 2010's when people were printing nothing but yoda busts as their "tests"?
It's nearly 2025 son.
@@GoatZilla Imagine it is almost 2025 and there are still people complaining about what others are still printing on 3D Printers. Then those people take to review videos to show how much they disapprove of what people are printing. People print what they want to print, and they do not need your permission to do so. My wife went onto Creality Cloud, and wanted to see the panda printed. You print whatever you want, and others will do what they want. My wife likes trinkets and cutes stuff, and I like particle prints.
Have A Merry Christmas 🎄
