Why would I recommend anyone buy a printer that cannot be repaired? That’s just throwing money away and creating e-waste. Even a Prusa Mk4 makes more sense than the X1 when you consider repairability.
- gamblor956 2y agoBambu sells replacement parts for their printers. Very little of the printer is not repairable.
- jonwest 2y agoNot only does Bambu sell parts, but there’s a pretty healthy market of third party parts as well. Saying these printers are irreparable is plain false.
- Kirby64 2y agoAt some point the value proposition makes sense. People buy non repairable 2D printers all the time. Also, as the other commenter noted, they actually are quite repairable. Bambu offers pretty much every part you could imagine and at prices that are extremely reasonable. Any wear component you’d expect is easy to replace.

- Kirby64 2y agoAnything commercial that is also the size of a small fridge. You don't actually want one.
- esskay 2y agoHave you looked at the parts shop? You absolutely can repair a Bambu printer, and as someone with a farm of the things can attest that it's no more complex than working on Prusa's. You still need to buy the parts from somewhere. Bambu's own pricing on parts is pretty reasonable in my opinion.
