This is Bambu Labs current price right on their website and is only $20 cheaper than their highest price in the past year.

If you have Target Red Card you get another $10 off with the 5%. So $189.99

Multi-color is not in the box at this price. The AMS lite is a separate purchase, so budget for it up front.

Too small. Spend the extra $60 for the A1 or $360 with the ams lite.

Buy this shit and support closed platform subsidized Chinese shenanigans.
As opposed to all those (equally entry level) open "platform" American based 3D printers? I think I saw them sitting right next to the 5 legged unicorns at my local Walmart.

*FWIW, your only real option for non-SuBsIdIzEd cHiNeSe sHeNaNiGaNs. is the Czech based Prusa but you ain't finding those for $200...or even double that.

I know people are saying this is too small but if you're the type that wants to print small things… like every day household items, this printer size isn't all that small. The price makes it a very friendly entry machine but don't count this little machine out! It produces some of the best quality prints out of all my machines. FYI 90% of models out there will print on this thing. If you're looking to print something specific or very large then you're not the customer for this machine anyways.

Entry level? Shoot, I can print parts 180mm or less with quality just as good as my coworkers' $1k+ printers with my A1 mini.

You can print a surprising amount of stuff with 95A TPU, PETG, and PLA.

Totally agree. The a1 mini is too small. After a couple of months you'll wish you went with the A1. You don't have to get the combo

Absolutely. I made the mistake of getting the a1 mini and not the A1 and regretted it a couple of months later.. there's lots of things that you need the bigger build plate for.

DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AS I DID

I still have a Monoprice Mini which is 120mm cubed vs 180mm for this A1 and I've never had an issue printing out anything...even a Trek Mik adapter for a milk crate (it was in two pieces). I believe the A1 is much better entry level for ease of use compared to the Ender 3.

Some of the worst customer service. I have an A1 that I purchased last year from Best Buy, The hotend broke and they wouldn't replace it, saying that it was not covered in the warranty. The TH board broke and needed replaced and they told me to contact Best Buy for a replacement part. All of this after multiple conversations back and forth proving when I bought it, letting them access the information, sending so many pictures of the issue and on and on. With that said, the printers themselves are pretty beginner friendly and easy to use and learn on. And we used it alot last year for christmas presents for everyone.
