@@notchipotle That is where my worry is. If you don't mention any flaws your review would be considered not trsustworthy. If you list genuine flaws, like inability of the printer to reach 60C chamber temperature that would not fly well with the one who sponsors the influencer. So they list something absolutely minor like "you need to recalibrate the printer after software update" .

@@tangsir34 regardless of price would certainly be the Prusa XL but that’s quite a price. 5 tool heads eliminates waste and allows for true multimaterial printing. There are trade offs for everything when you look at more consumer priced printers. Bambu is reliable and simple, but can waste a lot of filament. Prusa mmu3 is more complex to set up and is reliant on your understanding of the machine to make it as reliable but it wastes significantly less filament and is also faster for color changes. Other color systems are newer and less proven so far like Anycubic ACE, Creality CFS(although this video looks promising) and Flashforge’s new system.

I have an X1C and I really want the K2 plus simply to have a larger format printer with similar features. However I've already spent my money and have to wait a while before I can justify spending more. Supposedly the P1S is very competitive to the X1C if you were looking to get into something now and save some money for a future investment.

As a blind person who relies on sound, this really helps. Thank you for your honest feedback without hyping the printer too much either. I personally will never buy a Bambulab printer as I can't use one because it isn't compatible with Octoprint. If I was going to buy a printer, it'd probably be this one or the Prusa Core a.

That has been keeping me on the fence, I just might make a purchase now that i see this can be used as a reliable tool to just simply work. I still want to see what Bamboo will come up with but if its too 'prosumer', they're going to loose out to Creality with me. I have a 340mm printer now and the X1C is just too small for my needs. K2 Plus came on scene first and might be what wins me over. Ball is in your court now, Bamboo. Lets see what youve got.

I have ordered it for my daughter who studies architecture. For architecture you need a XL Printer with professional claims. I hope it is a good investment what saves her time for constructing models of various buildings. I think for architects and students of architucture this Creality K2 plus could be a good affordable option. In youtube videos they present always only how the 3 D printers can produce toys. A nice hobby for too much money for my opinion, But for architecture a good 3 D printer is a must have today. Print examples for this special use would be helpful for these potential important customers. Marketing departments are sleeping.

The secondary motions created by loose tolerances or "slop" in the machines build plate i think are what are giving you the "ringing" at the top of tall prints. It can be anything from the linear bearings not having any lateral tension on them to stop from moving around to the leveling knob springs being too loose. With any slop or give in the bed the motions will be exaggerated the taller the print.

Slowing it down would definitely help with that. Considering how fast these printers are going and that those numbers on a flat surface are basically a torture test for "ringing", it's not bad at all. Slowing it down a bit would probably eliminate it completely and still be way faster than any bed slingers out there.

I feel like my prusa mk4 + MMU3 is more compact than the default setup. I use a sunlu s4 filadryer to hold the filament. I skip the buffer completely. The boden tube goes near the dryer. You don't want it going in because if the dryer itself becomes the buffer, you will get a mass of sphagetti inside. I had one tube accidentally attach. It took me 2-3 hours to fix the spool. lol Hell I could probably put the mk4 on top of the dryer especially since I have 2 of them. (kick starter bonus deal!)

Very nice and thorough review - and the detail with closed loop stepper motors really earns Creality a big star in my book. This has taken WAY too long to implement in consumer grade 3D printers.

I learned a few things about the K2 Plus that I wasn't previously aware of.

Although it took Creality two years, they did manage to finally catch up to the level of tech of their main competitor. And perhaps unlike the Ender 3 Pro and Ender 3 V2 vs the Prusa Mk3/Mk3S before it, the K2 Plus seems to actually be on par with (if not slightly better than) the printer it's copying...particularly in terms of size. Yes, the 220-250 mm beds certainly allow us to print a wide variety of things, but 300-350 mm beds unlock a lot of possibilities without having to make certain sacrifices or spend additional time/effort on designing for fabricability as well as printability. For however long it takes Bambu Lab to release the X1 Carbon Max, P1P Plus, or whatever, this is a solid selling advantage for Creality that isn't based around price. All that being said: I still don't like single-extruder printers with the Bambu-style multiple filament system...while the process of tuning filament purges almost sounds fun, the extreme waste and the extra time spent on swapping and purging filaments is just not good. This is why hope continues to spring eternal for me when it comes to a revolution in toolchanger and IDEX printers, and why I bought a Vivedino Marathon instead of any of a dozen great non-IDEX printers currently on the market. I still think that there will be more attention paid to reducing wasted material and time for multicolor prints, and unless the Prusa MMU approach (or something else entirely) gains more traction there should be a market for IDEX/toolchanger printers in the future. Likewise, I'm really excited to see what Michael from Teaching Tech can accomplish with his project to convert a Sovol SV08 into a six-toolhead printer, because I think a lot more people would want to have a Prusa XL-like experience without having to sell a kidney to do so. Please also count me amongst the legion of people interested in your review of the Prusa Core One. Is it even just a little derivative of the X1 Carbon? Maybe. Is it what Prusa should have released instead of the rushed Mk4? Absolutely. Should they have stuck with their naming tradition and called it the i4 Mk1? Probably only if it were released instead of the Mk4. Still, the intro video for the Core One made it seem like they have taken a different tack with their "Bambu-killer" than what Creality has done with the K2 Plus. Creality did what Creality does, taking the strengths of their competitor and simply copying and improving upon it (ease of assembly/mods/etc. and size with the Ender 3s vs the Mk3, speed and size with the K2 Plus vs the X1C). Prusa is doing what Prusa does and puts the user experience front and center...and the idea that a Core One could actually be made from an i3 with an upgrade kit is simply nuts. Great review as always!

Great review as usual but a few points, it would be great to always speak to these points, as they have a huge effect on the user experience: 1) NOZZLE: quick change nozzle? how easy or hard to change the nozzle and how expensive/cheap are they? how easy hard to clear a clogged nozzle? 2) AIR QUALITY: can we keep the printer enclosed and vent the air so no particulate matter ends up in our lungs? how easy to attach an exhaust hose/fan to the back or side, if there's a port? or do I have to drill into the frame? and does that hold on securely or not? with some filaments, its best to print in an open frame printer, but I don't want to breath the particulate matter....nobody talks about this, but having a printer with a port, ready to attach the exhaust hose would be super great. Thanks Aurora!

A little hesitant. The channel have the Anycubic Kobra 2 Max a good review, but have more problems than successes with that machine and on another channel the K2 Plus is only optimized to print multi color at a .20 layer height. Which isn't his for finer detail prints. Hopefully it can be resolved through am update. Since the K2 comes with a high for nozzle it is naturally going to be quicker than other colors xy printers.

The time inconsistencies are likely due to flushing / filament changes etc. X1C has this issue, as well as most other printers I've seen. It would be great if printers had a calibration to generate a time estimate for priming, flushing and filament changes.

Your cons are good feedback for them. Also the Z wobble is not that good in some of the prints in every video I have seen.

If you use multiple filaments, can you store the flow calibrations for each filament so it doesn't have to be redone each time? Why so much poop on the wipe tower? I thought the tower was printed to ONLY when changing colors. As the bency print only changed colors 3 times it should not have been going to the tower so much, it actually went to the tower in the middle of printing each color, not just at the color change points.

Great review as always but it would have been nice to know what version of Klipper is in use and whether it has either the Fluidd or Mainsail interface as well as the rather basic Creality offering. I will be honest and say with my experience of Creality printers, the K2 almost seems too good to be true and I worry whether reviewers are getting inventory that has undergone very strict QC processes that will not be maintained on general release. Time will tell but I will not be dropping any cash on one for at least 6 months.

There is an option to select root access, which means you can technically do whatever you want on the Linux system.

I really appreciate your videos as there's not many, if any, other channels that do such a consistent side by side comparison with machines. I want to point out though that a lattice box is not a good warp test for ABS. Solid walls would do a better job testing for warping and bed adhesion as they are more likely to pull as each layer cools and shrinks.

It would be nice to see the high details prints in a more mat PLA, that would let the details pop more and the inconsistencies too

Fantastic video, the K2 looks excellent, though not sure I need a printer that big, but it is great to see some competition for Bamboo Labs.

One of the better reviews I've seen. Nice job. I've almost pulled the trigger on the K2 Plus 5 or 6 times. It's a chunk of money, but darn that bed size is sweet and I really need something that big for many of my shop designs. My other thing is I believe Creality only sent like 20 of these units out for reviews...and knowing from other past experiences, many things show up once these are fully available. As for your cons...I don't think any of them are massive concerns, nuisances for sure. Thank you for doing such a good job, and including the Bambu Labs as comparisons, though how good is the Bambu Labs for tall items such as the garbage can?
