Because of course it now does. Welcome to Bambu.

Its hard not to be smug as a lowly ender 3 peasant to have everything I was worried about Bambu doing slowly coming true.

I mean... I wish my printer worked as well as all my Bambu friends, but this helps a little... this helps...

There are tons of better printers now that give you results similar to bbl without their bullshit, you don't need to suffer (unlessyou want to).

Can you recommend one comparable to the H2C? I would love one with 7 hot swappable hotends, intelligent filament switching, inductive heating, and a 40W laser module.

Prusa go brrrrr

I may need to manually level my bed every time I print, but I never see ads, and have zero privacy holes in my printer.

And it's gonna stay that way. And when it eventually dies, it's time to harvest the corpse and build a voron printer.

I replaced 2 ender 3s with a bambu a1 after confirming I can just use SD cards to print... I don't deal with whatever is going on.

I regret not doing it sooner. Granted I wouldnt choose Bambu today. Enders are nice but so damn slow.

Just of note, many other brands are now very competitive with Bambu, even beating it in value in some cases! For example, Qidi has some very good value enclosed printers like the Q1 Pro and the newer Q2, Elegoo's Centauri Carbon is exceptionally good for the price, the Snapmaker U1 undercuts Bambu's H2 series by a lot while being compatible with OrcaSlicer OOTB, and of course you have Prusa being cool as always, letting users upgrade from the MK4S+ to the Core One with a kit, which can later be upgraded again to a tool changer with the upcoming INDX.

Creality's new Klitek printers are imminent. Multiple tool heads, push pull feed for TPU.

Bambu upped the game but the competition is coming back better.

Push pull TPU feed + Siraya tech glass fiber TPU is going to allow truly strong anisotropic prints.
