I bought this a couple hours ago, along with another AMS2 and a bunch of filament, here's what I learned along the way:
--- I was originally going to buy the AMS1 combo + another AMS1 because I figured it would be cheaper. Turns out, in my case the price difference is really small because I wanted 2, and I went for 2xAMS2. I don't remember exactly how much, but to upgrade both of them was less than $100 difference because you have to buy the AMS hub separately ($40) if you go the AMS1 route.
--- The AMS2 combo comes with a wall power adapter for the AMS2, which you need if you're drying filament with the P1S. If you buy a second AMS2, it doesn't come with one, and you need to buy it separately (like $35)
--- If you plan to get bambu filament at some point, buy it at the same time as the printer. They gave me an "add-on" discount on all of them which I think is equal to the maximum bulk discount on filament, but just a la carte. So every filament was discounted 45%, which made PLA/PETG/ABS with spool included like $12.50/ea, regardless of how many I ordered.

Its 599 if you go with the buffer instead of the hub. Hub is for 2+ AMS, buffer is for 1 AMS (but you can modify it to work wih multiple AMS's)

The online discussions and few videos I've seen have all said P2S is worth waiting for. It is an upgraded X1C at $600. The most common comment is regretting buying the P1S. It probably won't go on sale until next June, 2026. Get P1S if you want to save money and need it now.

P2S is available everywhere except USA. You have one specific person to thank for that problem.

Doesn't come with the AMS 2 though.
True, but, check out Python for AMS. I fully plan to "rebuild" my AMS using that extra hardware.

For a 10 year old and a dad who has never used these, is this a good deal? Vs the Flashforge AD5X that was recently on Ali Express for around $250, this is more than double in price? Would I ever need the hub version?
YES it's perfect for a kid and a dad without experience - and as much as i hate recommend spending more $; bambu is 100% my go-to for folks entering the game - they have SUCH a high success rate that i really would spend more on this. i've put a dozen different filaments through a p1s using generic profiles and they all just... work. no fiddling, no adjustments - it's unlikely you'll need the hub version (by the time you want to spend 300 on another ams, you'll want another printer attached to it)

Why extra plates? I've got thousands of hours on all my Bambu printers and all are still using the textured plates they came with and all look like new. Regularly/properly cleaning them should make em last for many many prints.
it's not a matter of damaged plates. at bare minimum i want a spare pei plate for each machine so when i pull a hot plate of abs pieces out i can set it aside to cool and don't want to wait before reloading. next up would be smooth and textured plates for prints tha don't have the standard texture. if you're patient and not too picky one plate is perfectly fine.

What is everyone getting for PLA filament? $12 each thru Bambu or 3rd party combo 4 pack on Amazon? Save roughly $1.50 per spool.
i'm hooked on kingroon from aliexpress. pla and petg 10 packs are commonly $75-85 with $10-15 coupons. i average 6.75/kg for petg. the reason i settled on that brand is they ship from the us - so i get dirt cheap filament in 2-3 days to my doorstep. i still have to go elsewhere for more galaxy/wood/glow etc but for utility filament it's the best i know of

Yep, I just did exactly that. I think on the filament though you can add a crap ton and get the bulk discount rate if purchased separately. I've already got a ton, but it's that time of year right? What else you going to do during the winter when football isn't on.. Smilie

For someone who is new to this, can someone recommend add-ons? There was a Bambu thread some time ago that someone made some recommendations, but I can't find it now.

I finally pulled the trigger and got my first 3D printer the P1S combo with ams2 pro. My question is how hard/easy is it to learn the slicing software? Im sure there is more to it than just uploading a stl file.

My Bambu textured plates started having issues at about 200 hrs. Face down finishes were dull. Things didn't stick nearly as well.
I hand wash them every other print. IPA between hand washes.
I buy a new plate every two months.

Well, I was rocking a P1S Combo, a FlashForge AD5X, and Anycubic Kobra V2 all from previous Slickdeals. Time to upgrade and run with the 3 P1S's!
For anyone wondering if they should bite on this deal, I rely on my P1S the most out of any of those 3 printers to be able to tackle the toughest of jobs. Its by far the most dependable and the highest quality prints.

Best Buy P1S combo for $550 (and in Delaware for no sales tax) or this with the AMS2 for $600 plus PA sales tax ($42). Is the AMS2 worth $92 more? Why? TIA

Is AMS2 worth $92 extra? If I buy at BB I don't have to pay sales tax.

Go to best buy and buy an obsolete AMS and no tax. 98% of us here pay tax.
This is for AMS 2 which is better , its worth the extra money if you have a print farm

OK, drumb sucks we all agree.But there's no way the p2s is released cheaper than the p1s. Where's the evidence?
