⚖️ Expert Verdict

The Bambu Lab P1S is the logical and superior evolution of the P1P. By adding a full enclosure and improved cooling, the P1S enables high-quality printing with temperature-sensitive materials like ABS and ASA, which often struggle on the open-frame P1P. The P1S also provides a more polished look and quieter operation. For a small price difference, the P1S is the clear winner for providing a more versatile, professional-grade enclosed experience that can grow with your material needs and project complexity.

What Owners Are Saying?

Bambu Lab P1S

Oscar ★★★★★

"The enclosure is proper sorted. Printing ABS in my garden shed now with zero warping. Absolute unit."

Mia T. ★★★★★

"Strategic choice over the X1C. You get nearly all the performance for significantly less quid. The AMS is a must-have if you want to do any serious multi-material work."

William ★★★★☆

"Setup was a doddle."

Grace S. ★★★☆☆

"Brilliant hardware, but the fan noise is right annoying if you're working in the same room. I’ve had to build a sound-dampening cabinet just to keep my sanity during the day."

Bambu Lab P1P

Freddie ★★★★★

"Cheapest way into the Bambu ecosystem. Speed is mind-blowing. Printed a ream of PLA already with zero fails. If you don't need the enclosure, this is the one."

Sienna ★★★★☆

"Great ROI. Camera is a bit rubbish though."

Jude B. ★★★★☆

"Fast as you like, but I wish the frame was a bit more rigid. It can rattle a bit on the faster accelerations."
