Creality K1 VS Bambu Lab P1S | Printer Face to Face EP1

Hey guys, a new video up. So the idea of making this video is asked by my friends. They went over for the Thanks giving dinner last week, and they have check out my two new toys.
So they have asked a lot of which one to pick. It is kinda hard to explain well in a few centences. Also, there are so many people were ask about those few printers, which one should they go for. I hope this video will be helpful.
To me they are both good printers, it is hard to make a comparison with one sub $400 printer to an mid $700 dollars one. They are both worth the money, and it really depends on what you looking for and your budget. AAAAAAnd WIFE'S permission.

Anyhow, if want to check out my review video for both printers, there are more detial there:

The Bambu printers support local LAN mode which bypasses their cloud and sends the gcode file directly to the printer. The one thing you will give up using LAN mode is auto updates and the Bambu Handy app.

Recently picked up a k1 from microcenter, the extruder and hot end issues have been fixed. It worked great out of the box. I only have about 40 hours of printing on it but no issues so far. For the price I think it’s awesome

I ordered a p1s over Black Friday, after playing around with an ender 3 for about 6 years I thought it was the best value I had seen so far, so it gets here Friday. Great comparison video, just facts and allowing the viewer to draw their own conclusions.

Thank you for this very insightful video. Your detailed description of both printers finally helped me make up my mind for my next purchase. I have been looking at the P1S and K1 both. I will be going with the P1S. I airbrush my models so the AMS isn't really something I need, so I will be getting the printer alone.

[protectyourassests]

I rather pay extra for the premium P1S and get something that works than to buy the cheapest(K1) and get a machine that will give me endless headaches and breakdowns.

Nice video! Just bought the K1. Som tinkering to get it good. Would be really nice to se you continue tinkering with the K1 and see if you can get the same quality as with the P1S. In my experience it seems like you need to use the Hyper PLA to get the best out of the K1. The cat model thats comes with the K1, printed with Hyper PLA looks fantastic. Try that model on both K1 and P1S. Feels like they spent a lot of time to make that model print perfect on K1.

Love my K1! No problems and beautiful fast prints everytime.

Great review! I have the k1 Max, so far it has been great! What needs much more work is there slicer! I use both creality slicer and Orca, I'm still working with both but Orca is far better but I hate transferring files w a usb stick, in that respect the Creality Print Slicer works great.

I've upgraded from my Ender 2 to a K1 and i am very happy about it. I realize that Bambu might be better, but i can say that my K1 also rocks with my own 3d designs.

[Andre_M_D]

Oh and the k1 and the ghosting issue is mailly due to the fact creality used the numbers for imput shaper twice for some reason. Instead of using the x and y they used the same one twice. I found that once the printer is rooted and stock klipper is added, it improved quite a bit. I had to change the imput shaper info in my printer.cfg and made sure it was set to x and y. Now there is still some ghosting but it has improved a lot. This is probably due to the fact the creality motuon system is heavier and not as refined. But for half the price it is hard to compare. And now i also use orca slicer. It also was a way better experience

[majorredbeard]

Amazing comparison, thank you for putting all of the time into this! Thank you!

[Slurgical_D_Terrain_Channel]

Thank you for your straight to the point review. It has been extremely helpful. I’m a very small channel with limited financial resources to create and start my product line. My current Frankensteined CR10 is kaput, it has served me well but its time on the repair bench is now too frequent. I can’t afford to make a mistake at this crucial point. The price point and availability locally of the K1 and K1C is incredibly appealing but like I said, down time and constant repairs is of the essence. I’ll be going for the P1S. Just need to be patient to get.

[Andre_M_D]

I recently picked up a k1 as they finally unlocked klipper. As tried it stock and i must say i was not impressed. I then unlocked it and instaled stock klipper and this printer is amazing. It is night and day. I have quite a few printers and most are running klipper now. And the k1 is now my favorite printer. I also picked up a camera, newer hot end andnnewer extruder as well and will keep them as spares. I just find the bambus too expensive and i like to tinker and upgrade so the k1 was more for me.

[doro]

Thank you for the thoughtful break down. I got the K1 from microcenter and it was in teh perfect rpice range for me. I bought ti to print ABS but I havent done it yet.

[danob]

I would suggest you buy a 3d printer tuning book and then do comparisons cause most of the 'downsides' of the K1 i c in your vid are due to bad tuning. And sure bambu is better out of the box and creality app sucks but if you root the K1 and get the full klipper experience and you can tune it right... K1 is atleast equal to the P1S when it comes to printquality. Also K1 is opensource and can be upgraded easily what you cant say of the bambus. Also it doesnt help that you get a benchy where K1 clearly wins and then you do a second with your own profiles and all the sudden bambu wins cause K1 starts printing bad compared to first one. That makes it look assif you want the bambu to win. Besides all that video and audio quality are sufficient for these type of vids.

[trent]

Good video and thorough review. Very enjoyable to watch. The k1 had inferior prints for sure with the ringing and artifacts

[desmondmiles]

good day borther, what camera were you using to make the timelapse(ENDER) of your 3d printer?

[tomicooltomi]

I've heared a lot of negatives with the K1, especially with the first batches. Did they fix most of the problems, e.g. with extruder, hotend?
Is the Speedy the same as the normal K1, just the fixed version? 🤔

[MrHackerPoard]

Amazing video ! thank you for that, one question .. Can i print any model that i want on P1 or Should stick with their models ?

[SEVEN]

Hey thank you for the video. I was wondering, which printer would you get now a days if you had $1k?
