Set and forget. As in something that just works and will work for thousands of hours. Personally I'd recommend Bambu, Prusa, and to some degree Flashforge.

They're pricier, but other brands require maintenance and mods that these usually don't. They print great out the box. $399 for a Bambu P1S is a great starter printer.

Personally I'd go with a set and forget printer to start and have fun modeling and actually printing things.

Id say if you like to tinker this is a good second printer. Then you can use your reliable workhorse to print replacement parts and mods for your project creality, heh.

Yeah. It's moreso that many people who say they love to tinker don't really love to do this kind of tinkering. Spending hours trying to figure out why adhesion isn't working, when in the end the bed is just warped out the gate is not a fun time tinkering.

The K1 SE is a fast Core XY printer that can feel close to plug and play for PLA, with auto leveling, input shaping, and strong out of the box speed for the price. The enclosure version is better suited to ABS because it helps keep warm air around the print and reduce warping, though it does not handle fumes, so ventilation still matters. The refurb angle is the main risk, since some units arrive dusty or need small fixes, while others print flawlessly after a quick setup. A solid low cost pick if you are comfortable checking a refurb.

  • Tinkerers who want a cheap CoreXY starter, because it auto-levels, uses input shaping, and can print PLA well once dialed in.

    dijit4lpeva3jeremiahahowardkargo27

  • PLA hobbyists making everyday parts or figurines, because it prints PLA well and can feel nearly plug-and-play after setup.

    Falqonpeva3kargo27collectek

  • ABS makers with a ventilated enclosure setup, because the enclosure helps prevent warping from drafts and cooling.

    FalqonjhimmelbergjhimmelbergFalqon

  • Second-printer owners who already have a reliable workhorse, because this machine is better suited to tinkering and replacement-part printing.

    ZeeLobbytumengioxlaxplaya

  • Hands-off beginners who want a printer that never needs diagnosis, because refurb units can arrive needing part swaps, tightening, or troubleshooting.

    TokenSidMeshcaxlaxplayakargo27

  • People who do not want to tinker at all, because the printer can require bed, nozzle, belt, or probe fixes before it runs right.

    xlaxplayaThoenkargo27kargo27

  • Buyers expecting a flawless refurb out of the box, because some units arrived dusty, scratched, disconnected, or missing parts.

    xlaxplayadrewcptestshoot

  • ABS printers without strong ventilation, because the enclosure does not stop fumes and still needs exhaust or room airflow.

The Bambu A1 Combo is an over-rated POS!!! imho.Of all the printers I have, it is the only one I actually hate. Set and forget? Not even close.
One has been great except for the printer constantly being offline in Bambu studio and occasionally I handy.
Probably partly the fault of my crappy Asus router though.

Bro, there's no tinkering with this one, I promise you. It's the base level of their flagship printers. It's plug-and-play like any of the other new ones out there. It is polar opposite of the Enders of old. I wish I could show examples of what it's printed to show you how good it performs. And it's quiet! I have two Flashforge AD5X's, and they are clunky sounding. They print great, no question, but this K1 SE sounds so much more smooth in its operation.
I'm not talking about a brand new K1 SE, I'm talking about this specific refurb deal. I full expect that I might have to replace a few parts once I get this thing, but that's worth the discount for me. In the other thread for the refurb K1C, one of the first buyers reported back and said that the printer he received was missing a foot and already had 200 hours of print time....

For what it's worth, my K1 Max had less than 5 hours on it. Clearly this is a YMMV sort of thing.

my first dip into 3d printing was Sculpto and I spent way too much time and $ "tinkering" but I did learn that high humidity where I live and PLA are a bad combo. I do miss 3d printing small things for my daughter and she often ask when I will "fix" my two Sculptos. For my next priter I want something completely enclosed, quiet, heated bed and auto level, and relatively easy nozzle service and a feeder thats not crappy. Sculpto software was easy to use though with mobile app, but I could also customize more on a Windows PC. Any thoughts on a small unit thats easy to use and maintain?
You might consider switching to PETG, I hear it's a bit more moisture resistant than PLA. Most modern printers can print with it just fine, with or without an enclosure. And you should definitely buy a filament dryer, to keep the PETG as dry as possible before printing. They're not too expensive.

Oh damn, that's crazy, thanks for letting me know, I had no idea. I threw my hat into the ring with this one as well, hope we get one of the better ones.

Yeah sounds like it's a roll of the dice. Fingers crossed!

Fingers crossed for sure. Keep me updated and I'll do the same. I haven't bought from Creality refurbished but had from Sovol refurbished and it was an Ender 3 V3 SE. Now I understand what you meant about the tinkering. I was thinking you meant that it would require constant tinkering after it was set up. My apologies! I completely forgot that I had an issue with the CR touch with that E3 V3 SE and I'll bet that that's why it was returned. It was sporadic in operation and would work sometimes and other times wouldn't extend and would give an error code. I figured out that it was missing a grommet that keeps the probe slightly extended from the base. After hours of studying it, I figured out that the grommet, keeping it a little bit extended, helped it to extend when it was activated. I printed one and put it on there and it worked fine after that. In the meantime, I contacted the seller and they did ship me a replacement CR touch, but I keep this other one as a backup. I'd really like to find an authentic grommet because the one I printed was a little too big and not the correct material.

Exactly. It's important to remember that little issues like that, which aren't a big deal for you and me, are a HUGE deal for many others. They either don't have the technical ability, or simply don't have the time, to diagnose a simple problem like that. For them, a missing grommet is a showstopping issue that makes their new printer a brick. So I tend to emphasize that printers like these are "for tinkerers" when talking about them, just to err on the safe side and help people avoid having a bad experience.

How would this be for al beginners?
Honestly, you should get a 3d printer that works bec it is 2025 and not 2018. The most reliable 3d printer now is Bambu. Bambu is like Apple and it just works. I got the P2S with 20% PayPal and it has been fantastic so far. Now I'm learning different cad software to create 3d modeling. Learning the software is much more important than worrying about why the filament didn't work.

Yes, sir, you were spot on! Sorry again for the misunderstanding!

The nice thing about the market is a lot of printers are really reliable these days. Bambu is good. So are printers like this one. The P2S is what, 4-5x the price of this printer deal? Yeah, not apples to apples since this is a refurb etc but damn, $111 is not the same as $500+ and this isn't an Ender 3Pro. I would have more sympathy if you said get the Flashforge 5M since, with recent sales, that's at least ball park similar and, like the Bambu, it's a printer that just works. Wink
