No more filament waste, and way faster printing. Right now if you want to print multicolor, the printer has to extruder all the old color filament and then load a new color. I have seen simple 1 hr prints that are 1 color become 10 hours when you print multi color.

Same price as the Bambu website. It's a sale, not sure it's a deal.

Overpriced now that mutlitool nozzles are hitting the market. Needs to be $500 if the U1 is $699.

Community Reviews

The P2S AMS Combo is a solid workhorse 3D printer for PLA and PETG, with AMS multicolor support that cuts filament waste and avoids manual color swapping. It is also praised for Bambu Lab's easy software and phone, tablet, and desktop monitoring, which makes it convenient for beginners and everyday use. The main tradeoff is that multicolor printing can add a lot of time, so it makes the most sense when color changes are occasional rather than constant. It is a practical pick if you want reliable printing without chasing a more specialized multinozzle setup.

  • The P2S can function as a solid workhorse for PLA and PETG when multicolor changes per layer are not a frequent requirement.

  • Bambu Lab ordering can add extra savings through a $10 signup discount and Black Friday credit that can be converted into money.

  • The AMS combo can reduce filament waste by handling color changes automatically instead of manually flushing old filament.

    MyDogSassy

  • The AMS approach can be worthwhile when prints require multiple color changes per layer, since it can improve speed versus manual color flushing.

    MyDogSassy

  • Multicolor is only worth it when it is truly needed, because many multicolor designs use single-color layers or split parts.

    the.barbrRagate

  • Multicolor printing can dramatically extend print time when the workflow requires extruding old color filament before loading a new color.

    MyDogSassy

  • Tool-changer multi-material printers may be a better fit for users who plan to print lots of multi-material or multicolor work.

    vypurr

  • Waiting for newer Bambu models may lower prices, but it also carries the risk of missing out if multicolor needs arrive soon after purchase.

Waiting for the P3C.
I just got my H3C and I'm also excited to see what the P3C will bring... Was planning on getting in on the infimech mx pro Kickstarter but just too many issues for me so probably going to get a P3C as my backup instead 🤣. Who cares about credit card debt anyway?!

Been waiting for the sale since summer, but now I have analysis paralysis - this, wait for P3C or get the Snapmaker U1.
You know the snapmaker U2 has to be right around the corner at this point too 🤣. I'm honestly really curious what their follow-up will be.

Here's the thing. I'm getting into 3D and my thought process is this, if this is a dinosaur in 3 years because tech has just gotten better, why not wait for a better unit? Every new model will push older and other models cheaper. So, I could get this for $650, the next best printer for slightly more, or just wait for this to drop under $600. Seems like it wouldn't be long to wait. Also, what if I really get into the hobby and end up wanting multicolor? The tech being the norm seems right around the corner.
The good news is that once your hooked, you'll find reasons to justify having 2 printers! This would be amazing for engineering needs, functional prints, and prototyping. Your next printer will likely be a tool changer, and you'll be buying the 2nd or 3rd generation of that technology.

If you really get into the hobby, you will realize that you need a tried and true workhorse and that you only need a multinozzle printer about 5% of the time. Most multicolor prints have single color layers or are split into single color pieces. I have run about 8,000 hours on a p1s and p2s and have only really wished I had a multinozzle printer when I printed a spiderman headphone stand that took 50 hours. They only print faster if you have multiple color changes per layer. Aside from that they print the same.

So unless you have designed something that is multicolored that you know is going to sell like hotcakes, p2s or similar is where its at for pla, petg and similar filaments.

The only printer I wish I would have gotten is the x2d with a dual nozzle for seperate support media.

I have P2S for 7 months. Think it as something that can do decent print with common materials, and do multicolor if you absolutely need it. I recently got a U1, for multicolor printing there is no comparison

It is 100% coming soon, In their V2 firmware they added support for new hardware and MCU, and that new hardware is beefy. so my guess is thats for U2 or U1L or something

You are talking to backer number 6 here... lol. just backed it this morning
Only thing i am excited about MX pro is that it will let create mods and extended firmware. Which i will never get in Bambu. Who wants printing when you can simply mod your printer. lol
Also did you really jump from Mx to H3C, one is $500 machine other is $2500, they are not even in same country.

I picked up an X2D Combo last week for $565. Seller on eBay was taking offers, and another poster here also got a $565 offer accepted.

I'm a 3D printing newbie. Been watching for years. I needed something that could do more than just PLA—ABS and other stronger filaments. The X2D does a nice job with those. Means I can make more than desk toys and figurines. Having a heated enclosure makes a difference, along with the drying capabilities of the AMS2.

It's also nice to have an enclosed system. Dust, pets, etc won't be an issue. I like the air filtration, too. I've got enough microplastics in my body already.

What I didn't really expect was how good Bambu Lab's integration and software is. It's pretty great to keep the printer in my basement workshop while being able to watch a print on my phone. So far I've used my phone, tablet, and desktop to start and monitor prints. That's a really nice feature. The makerworld site is really good, too.

There's no one universal answer as to what the best printer/ecosystem is. Think about your use cases, budget, and what features will make your experience the experience you want to have.

Just wait forever, you won't have to spend any money. This printer is great. I paid much more for mine. Those comparing it to a h3c at $2500 are silly.

Yeah, but you have to also think of the enclosure to maintain proper temperature. Some of them you have to buy an extra cover on top which is an additional $150 or so (also includes filter) to help with VOCs and maintain temperature. Also, some of the cheaper multicolor ones have the filament expose instead of enclosed (where humidity is necessary). Bambu Lab tends to be easier to use and more of a workhorse. Yeah cheaper in terms of price would be better and they will drop soon I think too. I think the better bargain than the P2S is the X2D. That provides you at least 2 heads so if doing 2 colors it is less waste. But most people don't use multicolor like that also.

Somewhere a one hour single color print just read the multicolor math above and started packing for a 10 hour stay.
