I appreciate this video. Lots of bambu videos are 3+ months old, so it's nice to get an updated perspective from someone. I have a P1S and an A1 mini and have considered the same things. The nozzle swap is too convenient not to include in the next iteration. The noise is noticeable, and the AMS frankly needs an overhaul. Jams far too often. Looking forward to the next generation of Bambu.
I bought a load of Polyterra filament when I bought my X1C and AMS and have never had an AMS blockage with that or Bambu filament, I have only had 2 filaments snap in the AMS and its been Generic both times.
@@AndrewAHayes das cool man I've had bambu silk pla jam about 7-10 times in a few months, and generic elegoo cardboard getting pulled out of place stopping hours long prints many more times. And my biggest gripe with the thing is that when it detects a jam, it tries to forcibly push the filament through the jam over and over again until it jams itself some more. If you've never experienced that consider yourself lucky.
Yeah, I keep a full hotend assembly for each nozzle size and then spare nozzles. That way I can replace the hotend quickly and then take a few minutes to disassemble and replace the nozzle that failed, and then I stick it back into rotation as my backup. That is a pretty big commitment in having parts on hand, and it is definitely not as handy as the nozzle replacements on the A1. That's a pretty slick setup. I always worry I'm going to damage the connectors when replacing my hotend with those fiddly little wires and connectors. So far, so good. Knock on wood. Glad they're continuing to improve their design and ease of maintenance though (which in turn means everyone will be working to up their game).
the infimech TX looks extremely promising. i appreciate the lighting AND the sound quality. looking forward to them developing a model with a larger print size, say 350 cubed and anything else they can think of. customer support and reliability are things that take time to determine so while i'm not yet ready to switch, i do appreciate and look forward to seeing how this company develops.
just gotten my bambu labs A1 (with the updated heatbed that doesnt catch fire) 3 days ago and it has been printing pretty much none stop since i got it, so far ive been really happy with it (yes the "light" and camera on it is pretty much a joke.. but the light is easely fixed with a couple printet mounts and a $10 amazon led light bar. coming from a heavily modified Ender 3 pro with directdrive extruder, BLtouch klipper bed mesh leveling and all of that jazz its soo much easier to get good bed adhesion and a much better looking print with the A1 and its a lot quieter. the Infimech looks like a tempting offer for getting in to core x/y printing but the 220x220 bed is just a deal breaker for me atleast if i were to add another printer to my collection, wish they would make it as big as the Bambu´s or better yet make it bigger.
100% agree I think the A1 after the bed fix is an amazing printer, it’s quieter than my X1C and the hotend is 1000x easier to replace! I thought the stock lighting was better than the X1C but either way fixing the light on the A1 would be a lot easier to fix than the X1C due to the lack of an enclosure. I planning on dropping the X1C from my collection due to how loud it is, and the AMS is a pain in the ass. Hopefully they make a 350mm x 350mm X1X or something and address some of the things the core x/y Bambu labs printers are lacking on. Until then I have an SV08 ordered. Plenty more videos coming including the Q1 Pro
@Lost3DPrints haven't had any first hand experience with the p or x series from Bambu so can't say how the light compares to those but I personally found the factory light on the A1 pretty much useless. The way it's mounted on the X gantry makes it so that it's pretty much not illuminating the top of the heatbed when it lays down the first couple layers but I also have my printers set up in a pretty dimm corner and have gotten used to the dual light bar ive build on the ender 3 so there are no shadows from the x gantry on the heatbed, But again a easy fix on the A series. But I'll be excited to see how you think the SV08 and Q1 pro holds up
@@lauritztaaning2382I’m super excited also, I think I mis spoke about the lighting on the A1/A1 mini, I think they have better lighting naturally due to not being enclosed. But the built in light on all the Bambu labs printers suck! Maybe not the X1E tho….Im sure at $2499 they could squeeze a better light in…..
@@Lost3DPrints Both the SV08 and the Q1 are better printers than the Bambu. Just in every spec they are better. I dont know why the Bambu cult even tries to argue about that
Did you ever receive the upgrade kit with the camera and fans? I did and they were easy to install, however, I can't get the /webcam/?action=stream to work. I get a 502 Bad Gateway error with "nginx/1.14.2" underneath. Do you have any insight into this?
Nope not at all, but if we make a deal out of it they will fix it. Bambu Lab printers are the ones we shouldn’t be changing. We are paying a premium for a polished product. Definitely want to push them to keep improving otherwise they will get comfortable. The X1E is a prime example after all this time they changed so little compared to the X1C and they want $2499. At that price these simple upgrades should have been addressed. But this shows they are comfortable at the top.
@@Lost3DPrints Completely AGREE 100% and yes I own a Bambu (P1P) , This review you did is PERFECTLY stated and honest people need to move on, I already have pre sale for the Anycubic Cobra 3 Combo and have money set aside for the K2 Combo and both together cost less than my Bambu with the AMS.....
I bought the X1C but I wish I got the P1P instead. I hardly use the lidar, and the metal panels just make it louder and harder to work on the printer. If I could do it all over again, I would buy the P1P with AMS, and then make magnet panels so I can easily work on it.
Mine currently doesn’t have filtration yet, so fumes got to go somewhere. The hood keeps in heat way better than I expected, but Its not sealed like the glass on the X1C
I hear people saying it is a $299 printer but it isn't as you have VAT and shipping costs on top of that, I don't know who's VAT rate it is or what the price is and I don't know what the shipping cost is, one thing I do know though is that it is a limited time price. I have had my fill of cheap Chinese printers, I have an X1 Carbon and AMS but if I could turn back time I would still buy the X1 Carbon, I have a printer that I trust 100% and I know if I have any issues my vendor has my back, when I took out my nozzle to put a 0.2 in one of the brass inserts of the extruder ended up proud and I couldn't get a nozzle back in, my vendor had one to me next day post. The Infimech spares are all out of stock, considering they haven't sold that many of the machines I am shocked that they are sold out of spares. Another thing with the Infimech is that gap in the door, I would like to see if that affects the printing of engineering filaments. About the Bambu noise, I print PLA with the door closed and never have any issues, I also have a hose fitted to it for the extraction fan and the noise is much less.
This is a very odd video. So much misinfo. I print PLA all the time and have NEVER printed with the door open. This is thousands of hours in use with a cool(35C) and PEI sheet(55) and 10s of thousands of filament changes on my AMS. No issues at all. Broken filament issues is the filament, not the printer. If you have crappy filament get better filament. They fact that your filament is breaking on both machines tells me a lot. Taking the AMS apart is 2 screws and some minor disassembly. Maybe a few min to do tops. You can print WITHOUT the AMS on an X1C. SO saying you cant print anymore is not true at all. The infimech doesnt even have that (AMS)option at all. The fan is the loudest part of the printer but you can turn down fans if you want, turning down the speed to silent mode does not address the fans, which again, can be set from the screen, app or slicer. But at the end of the day *buy[quality] once, cry once* .
Would've been more enticing at $299, the extra $100 for shipping really kills it since there's so much competition at the $500 mark it's almost not worth considering with how little track record they have.
That shipping is what keeps me from ever buying bambu or prusa. Way too expensive then want shipping on top of that? I had both in the cart at one time proceeded to checkout then saw the shipping charges don't remember the amount but I immediately canceled the order. Prusa even worse for a kit I'd have to put together, high price for the kit then want shipping and import fees on top of that! They can keep them!
Yeah but they have the same type of shitty directdrive dual geared extruder like the K1 and that's a thing to consider, they'll need to be changed often or you'll have extrusion problem really fast with that infimech sooo.. I don't agree
Only time will tell, no issues yet at 120hrs of print time. At 120hrs on the X1C I had already retightened the belts and had to dissemble the AMS to remove broke off filament internally.
@@Lost3DPrints I have over 600 hours on my X1C and have only had the filament break in the AMS twice. After the first time it was a two minute fix. Both times it was the same brittle, transparent PLA. Never had a problem with any others. I have not had to tighten belts or replace any parts. How is the InfiMech's AMS doing?
Light interferes with the operation of lidar system . Lidar uses a laser to illuminate the shape of the test pattern which is then scanned by a sensor. The more external light there is the less contrast the laser has and the sensor can get accurate information. This is probably why it has a dim light. Installing a brighter light isn't a good idea. It's odd that Bambu didn't use a brighter light and just program the printer to dim the lights during lidar scanning. Perhaps the next generation of the X1 will feature this. I don't own a bambu machine. I like to tinker with my printers so I avoid closed source printers. Got nothing against Bambu printers. They seem like nice printers. All printers have pros and cons.
Its a $400 printer was $300, and the Q1 Pro is spectacular I'm so glad I bought that printer over a Bambu even though I'm definitely getting an A1, so you're telling me there's nowhere on an app or on the touch screen that you can turn the fans to 0% at all the part cooling fan shouldn't be 100% all the time something in the settings is messed up IMO......................
@@Lost3DPrints ohh I'm not even talking about the bamboo I'm just saying it's not a $300.00 printer anymore when you have to pay $90.00 for shipping, you don't want your credibility thrown out the window if you keep calling it a $300.00 printer if it's actually not you got it for $300.00 and that's cool and all and so did a bunch of other people...............
It is a $299 printer. That’s my point. I agree the shipping is kinda steep, but you’re not paying taxes on-top of $299 just shipping. If you ask someone much does the X1C cost they will say $1199 not $1321 with shipping and tax. Title says $299 printer not $299 shipped to my door. I did somehow get a printer shipped to my door from china with out paying sales tax or shipping but that shouldn’t be expected and I should have pre adjust the price of the printer for everyone. Depending on where you live, the price of the printer will change not all my viewers are from the US.
@@NoMercyFtwI understand what your saying but for me to tell people the printer is $400 than I need to say the price of every printer I compare it to after shipping and tax, and off the top of the head thats difficult, especially considering not all of them charge tax or shipping. When I make a more in-depth comparison of the Q1 Pro vs the Infimech vs the X1C j try to be more detailed about the total prices.
200% is faster than Ludacris mode on an x1c. X1C is 166% so that's not a good comparison. So the rest of your comparisons are not equal. Not a good video for comparison
How would that make the rest of my comparisons not equal, so the infimech print in better quality than the Bambu labs when it’s push to 200% than the Bambu labs does at 166% . The Infimech also prints faster with both on 100% so if I set both to 166% the infimech quality will increase and it will still print faster.
If you are not comparing apples to apples it's not a good comparison. X1c nozzle changes are dead easy even if changing the nozzle. Takes 10 mins max to swap everything over. Easiest trouble free nozzle switch over ever. An important note is that all Bambu Lab printers will soon be coming with UL electrical certification.
@@markcoleman1966The X1C pre assembled hot-end is easy but the bare hot-end take like you said 10mins, you can change the hot-end on the A1 Mini in like 10 seconds.

@@Lost3DPrints Then do better, convince me with data. I have not seen you use a sound meter for example. You find the light is not good enough but you never tell why you want it in the first place. On my Ender 3 I have never used a light for example. Also extend like compare power usage (running and standby) with data. Untill you fix these points this is just an ad in my pov and you are incentivized to do this.
Despite InfiMech's brilliance, its appearance scares me; it looks like a factory machine compared to bambulab. Its head resembles a prison cell or an old diving bell. Just like we enjoy holding a beautifully designed phone despite its primary function being calls and texts, I want the printer to look less intimidating.
For me it’s the opposite, the X1C looks more at intimidating, due to not being able to easy repair it. Looking at I feel like we are comparing a high end luxury car to a Toyota, I’m sure the luxury car is fancy with all the features but I’d hate to have to repair anything. Even if the Bambu Lab is reliable, they all need repair at some point.
I am sorry, but I am missing real facts. Please do not tell me you really care about the light (just exchange the LED strip for 5 bucks or add an usb light on the glas) or the noise (which is IMHO far less important than print quality and the capabilities of printing more tech filament). If you were to compare exact, reproducible test results on both machines, I would believe you. But until then, it's just insignificant opinion making for me, sorry.
If the print quality and speed are similar on 2 printers with a near $1000 price difference, then sound and lighting become very important. I'm posting this to help people who don't have a $1250 plus tax and shipping budget. I'm bringing light to a printer that performs well beyond its $299 price tag. I'm genuinely choosing to use it every day for the majority of my prints with my Bambu lab X1C sitting right next to it. I just sold today to a customer a Polycarbonate print of the Infimech, why did I use the Infimech instead of the Bambu Lab, Because its quieter and I trust it just as much as the X1C to print a quality product!
Bambu is 100% outdated. Its not an argument, The machines are slower now and they don't print any better and sometimes even worse then a lot of the printers on the market that cost half to even less than half the price. Bambu had the AMS sure but that is just a 1 trick Pony that now all the other companies are coming out with and have made advances to it. There is NO sensible reason to buy a Bambu at this day and age........They are Obsolescent
And that’s your opinion, I haven’t seen machines that can reliably do what a bambu does except a stratasys, all of these other machines are just bambu clones, you know why, because it works.
@@liamdj6535 Bambu stole everything in their machines (even the ams) from Prusa and Voron. So they are actually a "clone" and other machines now can do EVERYTHING as good or better as a fact and are every bit as reliable....its not opinion its just reality.....

200% is faster than Ludacris mode on an x1c. X1C is 166% so that's not a good comparison. So the rest of your comparisons are not equal. Not a good video for comparison
How would that make the rest of my comparisons not equal, so the infimech print in better quality than the Bambu labs when it’s push to 200% than the Bambu labs does at 166% . The Infimech also prints faster with both on 100% so if I set both to 166% the infimech quality will increase and it will still print faster.
If you are not comparing apples to apples it's not a good comparison. X1c nozzle changes are dead easy even if changing the nozzle. Takes 10 mins max to swap everything over. Easiest trouble free nozzle switch over ever. An important note is that all Bambu Lab printers will soon be coming with UL electrical certification.
@@markcoleman1966The X1C pre assembled hot-end is easy but the bare hot-end take like you said 10mins, you can change the hot-end on the A1 Mini in like 10 seconds.
Even the Infimech I can change the hot-end in like 2 mins no thermal paste temp probe removing ect.
@@Lost3DPrints максимум 120%, остальное фикция!
“Lab” it’s Bambu Lab
99 dollars shipping in eu is a joke….
I agree does it try to charge you tax also or just shipping?
@@Lost3DPrints Ask your sponsor and make a new video
@@GraafG No sponsor, just went on their website and setup an affiliate link. I also order a Qidi Q1, Flashforge 5m, and a Sovol SV08 all paid for. Just trying to add to the community!
@@Lost3DPrints Then do better, convince me with data. I have not seen you use a sound meter for example. You find the light is not good enough but you never tell why you want it in the first place. On my Ender 3 I have never used a light for example. Also extend like compare power usage (running and standby) with data. Untill you fix these points this is just an ad in my pov and you are incentivized to do this.
@@GraafG This definitely isn’t a review or a full in-depth comparison, just sharing my experience using both printers.
Despite InfiMech's brilliance, its appearance scares me; it looks like a factory machine compared to bambulab. Its head resembles a prison cell or an old diving bell. Just like we enjoy holding a beautifully designed phone despite its primary function being calls and texts, I want the printer to look less intimidating.
For me it’s the opposite, the X1C looks more at intimidating, due to not being able to easy repair it. Looking at I feel like we are comparing a high end luxury car to a Toyota, I’m sure the luxury car is fancy with all the features but I’d hate to have to repair anything. Even if the Bambu Lab is reliable, they all need repair at some point.
I am sorry, but I am missing real facts. Please do not tell me you really care about the light (just exchange the LED strip for 5 bucks or add an usb light on the glas) or the noise (which is IMHO far less important than print quality and the capabilities of printing more tech filament). If you were to compare exact, reproducible test results on both machines, I would believe you. But until then, it's just insignificant opinion making for me, sorry.
If the print quality and speed are similar on 2 printers with a near $1000 price difference, then sound and lighting become very important. I'm posting this to help people who don't have a $1250 plus tax and shipping budget. I'm bringing light to a printer that performs well beyond its $299 price tag. I'm genuinely choosing to use it every day for the majority of my prints with my Bambu lab X1C sitting right next to it. I just sold today to a customer a Polycarbonate print of the Infimech, why did I use the Infimech instead of the Bambu Lab, Because its quieter and I trust it just as much as the X1C to print a quality product!
@@Lost3DPrints Thanks for this clarification!
Bambu is 100% outdated. Its not an argument, The machines are slower now and they don't print any better and sometimes even worse then a lot of the printers on the market that cost half to even less than half the price. Bambu had the AMS sure but that is just a 1 trick Pony that now all the other companies are coming out with and have made advances to it. There is NO sensible reason to buy a Bambu at this day and age........They are Obsolescent
what other alternatives are there that don't involve tinkering
And that’s your opinion, I haven’t seen machines that can reliably do what a bambu does except a stratasys, all of these other machines are just bambu clones, you know why, because it works.
@@liamdj6535 Bambu stole everything in their machines (even the ams) from Prusa and Voron. So they are actually a "clone" and other machines now can do EVERYTHING as good or better as a fact and are every bit as reliable....its not opinion its just reality.....
@@deghui Flashforge , Qidi, Infimech, And even the newer Creality machines are all tinker free. And all print as good or better than Bambu
