New to 3D printing and thinking about getting the Bambu Lab P2s
If you have one, let me know your thoughts about it.
Thx
I had the P1S when they were the current model. Had about 1500hrs on it before I sold it when I moved.
Print quality was always good, rarely had any failures that were the result of me doing something wrong.
The only thing I didn’t like about it was the control panel, but most of the time I would send prints directly from my PC or phone using the app.
It could handle ABS level materials but needed to use glue on the build plate to keep anything down, not having an actively heated chamber was the only problem.
I’ve since gotten a H2S and that’s even better, larger volume, actively heated chamber with a filtered exhaust system, laser cutter/engraver and circuit cutter style modules ( used vinyl to make stencils to paint , see current projects thread).
The AMS 2 Pro that they come with also acts like a heated dry box, drying 4 rolls at a time.
All in all I think they’re the best plug and play printers currently available, having had ender printers also they were fine but needed a decent amount of calibration to get good prints whereas bambu just has a calibration you do on setup and even before prints it’ll periodically do it’s own just to keep things squared.
Hell it even tells you when to change the grease now.
Naturally the Bambu filament works great with them but other brand will too but you do need to find the technical specifications of the filament and add them to the slicer I’d they’re not already in there for better quality, in saying that mine doesn’t particularly like Elegoo filament so far, still prints just not as clean.
Anyway, welcome to the rabbit hole 
I suspect a lot of people on ebay, are selling prints, as a way to recoup the cost of their printer.
Good idea.
How long do they last for.??
Lifespan…?? 2000-3000 hrs.?
More.?
Maintaince reqd.?
Repairability.?
