    Daniel,
    Glad to see your experience is still overall positive. I've had my X1CC for about 6 months now and I love it for most of my printing. I have a long running issue with Bambu (since February) that is preventing me from fully utilizing the printer for Voron Print it Forward use. In short, any time I print a horizontal hole (in the z face of a print) - like hex nut holes or heat set insert holes, they print squished (like an oval). There are several other owners having this experience and we have open support cases with Bambu. We're convinced it's a hardware issue (I can print the exact same STL on my Voron and it prints pristine) and are working the process thru with Bambu Support.
    Other than that, it prints all my Etsy items near flawlessly and I enjoy the hands off, turnkey printing operation.
    Thank you for the review!

    Hi Daniel, I have been searching for a good printer for a noobie like myself in this realm. I've wanted the bambu carbon for xmas but had to put off. Then the P1P came out and I was like wow - now which way do I go... My son gave me, or should I say let me borrow, his Geeetech A20M printer. I immediately upgraded the extruders to all metal and replaced his hotend since it was totally clogged. I also adjusted all the rails and bed to get rid of all play as well as replace the removable magnetic flex platform. Installed the auto 3D Touch and upgraded the firmware to suit.
    My son was impressed and wanted to do the same upgrades but didnt have the extra funds since he go married. I asked why impressed since he knew my background. He just said that was 30yrs ago... freak'n kids. I'm still waiting for him to drop off some of his new filament since his old PETG, that was on it, is really not working well. (1yr since he played with it)
    ANYWAY - I want to make Flight SIMMs and make glass style cockpits. Maybe relive my youth and build a few classic muscle cars. So which printer should I get; the X1 Carbon or the P1P w/AMS?
    PS... Don't tell the wife...lol

      I was in the same boat as you, a friend of mine gave me a a20m but I could never get it working properly though I never tried really taking it apart out of fear of not knowing how to put it back together. It sat for months after trying to change the extruder out because the one that comes with it is horrible. All it does it clog up and cause issues for me. When I tried flashing firmware I must of done something wrong because the screen won't even turn on now. I gave up and last week I ordered a sovol sv06. I couldn't be happier with it so far. Every print I've had fail was user error and it hasn't been very many and on top of that I started off printing lw PLA right away instead of regular pla. If I could of afforded it I would of definitely went with a p1p or x1c. The x1c is really amazing in so many aspects but the speed is what I like about it. It can cut print times in half

    I got my X1C and AMS mid january and have absolutely loved it. I have a prusa mk3 with a revo, a heavily modified ender 3 and a voron 0.1 my prusa and X1C are both workhorse printers that i never have to mess with. My ender is a hobby project and i love my voron. I am pretty invested into printing and tinkering with my printers, but have two printers that are always ready to print is so nice. I have put over 800 hours on the x1 all using the AMS and have not had a single issue with it. The only “modifications” i’ve done to the printer are adding the bento box filter and putting a WhamBam plate on it which i couldn’t recommend enough. I have only had one or two ams clogs other than that the printer just works.

    Thanks for this! I've been fairly satisfied with my X1C. Recently started to have minor mechanical issues that needed tending to, most noticeably my first nozzle clog! Which took forever to deal with - plastic had managed to back up into the cold end of the nozzle assembly when the hotend fan plug wasn't seated properly after a nozzle change - but eventually I realised that "this is hardened steel. My pin vise uses cheap AliExpress bits. There's no way they're harder than the nozzle." And then used a 1mm and 1.8mm drill bit in my pin vise to clean it out.
    Other than that, my only major issue has involved some low-quality ABS not sticking to the damn bed, but I think I've finally figured out how to cajole it. I think I was overheating it in the drying box before it got into the printer. So that's not the X1C's fault!
    The heads-up about the bed cable is good to know, I'll keep an eye out for symptoms. I'm about 6 months behind you (and suspect my duty cycle is lower) so this gives my a good sense of what to watch out for in the future.
    So sad to hear about people being jerks on the forums etc, though. :(

Speaking of the cable do you think there's anything preventative that can be done before the failure? I wouldn't mind taking it apart to change the routing or throw some tie wraps on it if you noticed any areas for improvement. Also the X1 has pushed me to work on upgrading my other 3 printers with Klipper to bring them more inline with the performance of the X1.

    I have enjoyed using my X1 Carbon 3D printer but had an issue with the original (I was one of the kickstarters) AMS. I had to replace an AMS first stage feeder and it was LOTS of meticulous work. I never could get the AMS to work properly so I gave up and actually quit using my X1 Carbon for many months. Recently I got back into printing and tried the manual feed method. It works but it doesn't seem as nice as having a working AMS so I decided to buy a new Ams (being that they are on sale) and hope that the quality of the AMS is more reliable. I do have to say that Bambu Labs has been very good at responding to questions and I like the fact that they continue to improve the X1 Carbon slicer/software. They seem to really care about the high end quality of their product and it is refreshing to see that they continue to move forward. It's great to get back in the 3D printing hobby.

      @@mariampogosova8295 Hey, in all honesty, I have had issues with both of my P1P's (nothing major, but enough to keep them from printing well). By the time you mod the P1P's to match the X1C, you'll have spent as much if not more money than just buying the X1C.
      I know it costs more but they are the more solid choice in my opinion. However, if you are going to try and run a print farm, obviously the added cost will add up quickly. I have a 7 printer farm myself so I understand that aspect, but the X1C's have been more reliable for me personally.
      Plus, with having a solid "built in" enclosure, the X1C will print those filaments no problem (plus they have the better nozzle to do so, you would have to swap the P1P's).

    Mine will arrive tomorrow. It is my first printer, and I've actively put off buying a printer from the very early days because I'm not really interested in 3D printing itself, I'm interested in owning one or more tools that can efficiently make niche parts that I cannot easily find elsewhere. I'd finally had my fill of spending several hours on a weekend afternoon looking for an obscure part that I could easily model in about an hour, so I did some research and landed on either Prusa or Bambu. I ultimately decided on the Bambu because about 50% of the parts I need are for outdoor use, and therefore, ASA capability out-of-the-box is important to me. The Bambu represented a better value proposition in that regard. We'll see how it goes!

But now I have to say, the printer I'm waiting for didn't come so quickly.... Bambulab's step was just too big for others to catch up quick. So I ordered the Carbon X1 with AMS today. Spaghetti detector, independent filament change and finally no more SD cards. Reason enough to finally dispose of the 2 x 500 USD 3D printer acquisition costs from the beginning of 2022. I draw fast - faster than searching spare parts (unfortunately you can't print everything yet :-(. What I save in search time is unbelievable! Once I even printed a part where inexperienced customer support of a company delivered the wrong part 2 times and took 5 more emails before they even know what was needed. Who still does that, better draw and print right away. Got to say, draw faster than constantly swapping filament and jumping back and forth with SD cards.... Well, thanks Bambulab, get that thing to me ASAP :-)

    One thing I haven't been able to find on this printer is how does it do with ACTUAL multi-material, not just color changes.

      I can't find the reference with a quick search, but my memory is that it's strongly recommended not to use materials with very different temperature profiles on the same print job. My personal feeling is that the AMS is more for multi-colour or for things like disolvable supports where the support and structural materials use the same temperature settings.

      3D Print General covered this exact topic in a video from a few months ago, and the conclusion was that it is a bad idea to use materials with different nozzle temperatures - the risk of clogs is pretty severe. He also did a 16-color print all in just PLA using four AMS units, observing that there's a lot of tweaking required to minimize color bleed and even that sometimes 1) still doesn't work, and 2) produces a phenomenal amount of waste, to the point where there was a print failure because the poop chute got clogged.
      If I get an X1C, I would treat it strictly as a single-color, single-material printer. I truly believe that toolchanger and IDEX printers are the only great solution for multi-color, multi-material printing...and even then, it seems like all the major IDEX and toolchanger printers either cost a fortune or require an excessive amount of work to maintain and keep calibrated.

      Single nozzle multi-material printers have, and always will be, a bad idea. Using one nozzle for for multiple colors is already a wasteful process (both for time and material) but add in a completely different material and it's a recipe for clogs and issues in general, plus even more time to wait on heating and cooling. Proper multi-material printing should use multiple nozzles, whether that's IDEX, a tool changer, or my personal favorite, "pivot" or "lift" toolheads.
      As an aside, it would be really nice to see pivot-toolheads (for lack of a better term) get more development. They don't ooze and you can switch nozzles in under a second. The biggest drawbacks are the extra weight, complications in making them direct drive, and the need to have a servo or solenoid on the print head to switch between nozzles.

I am almost tempted to say it’s worth getting one X1C to dip your toes and see how you feel. Best case it ends up being a game changer for you and your business. Worst case you have a blazing fast prototype printer for new designs/models. Just one perspective. Ultimately only you can decide what is right for you.

    Based on what I have seen and heard unless you are a UA-camr or influencer from the community helpful support from bambu is rough. I pretty much accepted the fact that the little guy is on his own with this printer.
    I seem have that same issue with the walls when working with ASA I use Orca and tune in each roll and it seems to fix the issue. Definitely feels like they haven't gotten the scanner working right for ASA, ABS, and non-CF Nylons. Works great with PLA and PETG.

    Would partially sleeving that signal cable increase durability?

    Just because of the last part of your video BL deserves recognition. All the other manufacturers where just cashing the check without any major innovations. Mainly looking at you, Prusa. Bambu Lab did a great job with the X1 Carbon and that job put them in the lead overnight. Now Prusa and everybody else are playing catch up and we the consumers are the beneficiaries, so thank you Bambu Lab, keep up the good work and keep everyone chasing after you

      "All the other manufacturers where just cashing the check without any major innovations. Mainly looking at you, Prusa"
      Remind me again, what "innovations" did bambu lab bring to the table? And I mean things that actually make a difference. 100% of a bambu lab printer is built using open source innovations that already existed. The heated PCB bed, the magnetic removable PEI sheets, induction probe bed leveling, those were invented by prusa. You're literally supporting a company that uses open source innovations, then keeps them locked down while trying to patent them.

    Considering this as my first ever printer, hoping it’s a smooth transition into the 3d world, I just want it for bits and pieces in my wood workshop so no real heavy use

    full honest review. I like it! I'm hoping to buy one soon but waiting till after christmas. I'm a Ender 3 user with 3 printers but sick of the tinkering. I want a Core x y thats going to work out the box and seeing other videos it makes me want to hit the buy button now.

    Since it was a 1 yr review and the review is 1 year old, have you seen any improvement in customer service especially response time? Maybe it’s gotten worse. I think Bambu Labs is the DJI of printers. The first to pull everything together with the Phantom 1 and then expand into the commercial market and improve all entries. They too had customer service issues at the beginning. I think in 10 years BL will dominate the market. About to pull the trigger on the X1C. I am a newbie so have been spending a lot of time on UA-cam. Like you, I want to make parts.

    Better to get p1p with multi color unit add on or spend the extra $500 to get the carbon?

    Great video, on the nose with key issues and thank you for making this video and giving feedback on slicing issues, I haven't had any major issues that required posting or anything breaking since receiving it back in mid-September. So far all the info required has been from their wiki, forum, and discord server. It's asham you get to see more than usual the negativity towards a brand, I hope that changes, a well-working printer you almost get not to hear. This printer works great, thank you again for this video.

    Guess I'll stick with my prusa mk3s for a few more years. It has been running flawlessly for years. I have nearly a year of active print time on the machine and the only maintenance I've done is clean the bed and oil the rails.

    I am eager to buy one, but I am kind of waiting on the 1.1 version. Hopefully a little cheaper and some design improvements. Just like you should never by the first year model of a new car design... Plus I finally got my BIQU printer working very well with a new direct-drive extruder, so I need to get some value from all the work it took to get that working!

      I would be even more impressed if they make x2carbon cheaper... With all this hype on the
      quality side, why would they charge even less?
