Last October, I got back into 3d printing. After doing a bit of research, I decided on the Bambu Lab A1, with AMS Lite which allows you to print in 4 different colors.

Years ago I had a Creality printer which I enjoyed playing with, but it was so fiddly. You had to manually level, manually adjust, manually do everything to make it print well. It worked well enough, but it definitely got old after a while.

Someone said the Bambu printers are the “Apple of 3d printers” — it just works. That’s generally what I’ve found. Load the filament, find a model on my phone, press a couple buttons, and an hour or two later my object is printed. I’ve had far far far fewer problems with printing on this printer, it’s been wonderful! Highly recommend it.

I 3d printed a bunch of little fidget toys for Christmas stocking stuffers, and have printed a ton of useful little organization boxes for my office. Been loving it!
