    They definitely need to release a transparent one. It looks so sweet with the clear housing! At first I was on the fence about it. I saw the photos and everything on Bambu's site first thing this morning and then I mulled it over a bit. I think without the AMS it's going to be a game changer and totally worth it if you're looking for a smaller machine to have close by on your desk. I like the idea of a small machine for quick idea prints or making small revisions to a design before printing multiples on your larger printer. I think that's one great thing about this. It can be a companion to your other printers as well as catering to the beginner market as well.

    You said ti precisely right - it's an appliance now. You also said correctly, that when appliance breaks, you bring it to a repair shop. This, IMO, is the biggest problem with our Bambu Lab printers. If something breaks that we are not able to fix (structural failure, an epoxied-in idler, or whatever may be wrong) or may be not _willing_ to fix ourselves (because we don't have the time or skill or knowledge required), where's the repair shop to bring it in? I hope those resellers that now exist will also soon work as service centres, otherwise this appliance approach is not going to work, or at least it's a big gamble for the consumer. Lemons also exist and having to ship the thing back is the very worst experience possible. And shipping the printer back to Bambu means you have to have the original packaging (most of us throw it away) and a postal service that doesn't cost an arm and leg. Sorry, but nope, I need a service centre that either sends a technician or a courier to pick it up, repair it and brings it back to me or somewhere I can drive to with the printer as-is and just "have it fixed and tuned up". Yes, so far my experience with support has been good (not that I had many problems), but sometimes remote diagnostics turns to guesswork and you just want a technician to either fix it or swap the whole chassis and investigate (or recycle or refurbish) later. This is an even more pressing topic for me because I am just dealing with an AMS failure (probably caused by me), where I first bought an expensive part as a replacement just to get one good board that's on it and leave the rest stashed somewhere, then discover the error is probably on the application board which I have to ask support to ship, but there's just no way to tell if even that is going to help and now I have a box of parts that are probably useless, and because I need/want to print I ended up just ordering another AMS as a replacement. That's not what a normal consumer wants to experience at all.

    My input - buy what works. Your discussion of the appliance model is very appropriate. Should Open Source matter to you - For most humans, the answer to at least 3 of those 4 questions is no. For me, this stuff is what I do for a living, and even I sometimes want the tech that I buy to just work. That's why I bought Apple TVs for my media use and Xboxes for my gaming. I have access to all of the bits and bobs to make very high end versions of both of those devices, but sometimes, I just want to plug it in and use it.

    The cloud slicing is a step to what I think makes this hobby more mainstream, as one of the last major hurdles to mainstream users is the slicing part -- being able to just print a model, select the speed/quality, and ship it without tinkering with the endless options is akin to how standard printers (inkjet/etc) operate in the user workflow. The user can tinker, but otherwise the driver/firmware handles all of it. Although I would have preferred something like Printables (for the online portion) and the Slicer embedded in the machines firmware.

There are no signs of wear on the moving parts. It prints nylon just as good as it can print PLA. It's almost too easy. The speed doesn't get old either. After all of this time of owning it, I still can't help but watch it print sometimes.

    This is what I feel like people always fail to understand. Sure, the *initial price* is lower, but that quickly gets overtaken by the overpriced, proprietary parts you need to buy when something breaks. And that's not even considering the fact that if Bambu Labs ever goes bankrupt or something, suddenly none of the fancy cloud features work and you will never be able to fix the printer again unless you buy a second one used and cannibalize it for parts.

    Cool features! But for me, someone who can only buy 1 printer, it lacks the size which is important to me. If it was 220x220, I would maybe consider it but someone mention that size would require a full gantry like an Ender. In the future, if Im allowed to purchase a 2nd printer. One thing though, this sort makes me lean towards buying a K1 Max over a P1S Combo.
