Bambu is widely considered one of the premier 3D printer brands. The Bambu P1S printer is one of its most popular models and it went on sale for Black Friday, but sold out relatively quickly. Fortunately, it’s back in time for the holiday season.
Best Buy has the Bambu P1S Combo 3D Printer with Automatic Material System for multi-color printing for just $549.99 after a $200 off instant discount. This printer was $899 when it first launched, but prices have been steadily dropping since then. This was one of the best 3D printer deals I saw during Black Friday and I’m glad it’s back.
Bambu P1S Combo for $549.99
The Bambu P1S is the best Bambu 3D printer for most people; this is Bambu’s mid-range model and offers several useful premium features at a reasonable cost. It’s almost entirely fully assembled out of the box and setup should take under 15 minutes. Unlike cheaper 3D printers, the P1S features a fully enclosed chamber, which is necessary to stabilize temperature and ambient conditions in order to produce more consistent results. It boasts an acceleration speed of up to 20000 mm/s² and can print a benchy in 18 minutes. A built-in camera allows you to remotely monitor the printing process.
The P1S Combo model includes the Automatic Material System or AMS. This module basically allows for multi-filament printing, which means you can use up to four different types of filament material or colors per AMS (you can daisy chain up to four AMS to manage as many as 16 different filaments). The AMS itself normally retails $350, so it’s best to get it in this combo, especially if you plan on getting it anyway in the long run.
