would really love to see some industry standard tests. 1st layer test, some type of vfa test, some input_shaper maps. not gonna lie some smaller prints look passable. but those colours sbd type of prints are not exactly ideal. but most interested. in the unit u actually bought.

@TheRealSamPrentice well as I said. And don't get me wrong. You can see the current state of influencers. People being paid, bots in KZbin comments and on reddit, these days you have to take things with a pinch of salt. It would really help with some standard test everyone uses as comparison. This is coming from someone who looked at reviews by popular reviewers, bought a k1m and basically had to rebuild the entire thing.

This is a great review of the K2 Plus, Sam! I hope they consider adding a five-color system. I've run into issues with inconsistent layer lines in large prints too, so your tips on firmware updates are super helpful. For big single-material projects, I often use the FLSUN T1 . It’s really fast and perfect for large models. While it doesn’t support multiple materials like the K2 Plus, it’s incredibly reliable for high-volume printing.

Creality seems to have really upped their game. I'm impressed by the thought they've put in to this. I hope the quality control department doesn't let their engineering department down. Personally, I don't have anywhere I could fit this printer. A 250mm version (K1 Plus v2?) would be far more interesting to me. BTW, we do not consume a credit card worth of plastic per week. The study from the University of Newcastle (howay the lads!) that claimed that counted the number of particles and then assigned a average, standard particle mass that was far, far too high in order to come up with the total. Other researchers who have revisited the data have come up with much lower estimates. In some cases, as low as a grain of salt per week. I'm not suggesting that is good, I'm fully on board with microplastics being a very bad thing, but I do want to correct the error that everyone on social media is amplifying.

A tip on your switching materials. Get a roll of regular nylon preferably natural. Use it to purge until all the old filament is out of the nozzle and then do a cold pull to make sure all the old stuff is out. Having worked with high temp stuff for awhile now we do that anytime we are changing material. The nylon we have been using extrudes fine at 240c(low enough for even pla) and has thermal break down at 350. So up to 340c is easy. It is possible to purge out even PEEK with it but you have to keep the flowrate really high while purging until the temps drop down to under 350c.

I got mine for 750€ so it was an amazing deal, but also for 1500 it's worth the money. The K2 Plus is one of the best printers I have used so far. The print quality compared to the K1 is amazing and the printer also seems like it's easy to maintain. And this time, the machine really feels like it's high quality, cause nothing is shaking weirdly thanks to the powerful and heavy frame. I'm not a Creality fanboy, but all in all I'm very happy with the product this time! They FINALLY did a great job!!

This confused my future purchase of a 2nd printer for my son this holiday. He got a Creality Ender V3 KE from a 3D printing camp this summer, and turned it into a little printing business for himself since. Wanted to gift him a 2nd printer since you can only do so much with one workload. I've settled on a Bambu P1S. To get that and an AMS for $750 seems like the best deal at the moment. If... i mean _when_ we get the eventual 3rd printer, he'll be paying for at least part of it. And I think by then all the kinks will be worked out of this model, or we'll know what large volume model Bambu has been working on.

Ya know, obviously you can use any filament you wish with the CFS (assuming the CFS doesn’t have problems with some cardboard spools that some folks have reported) without encoding stickers on them. You can just enter the settings by hand. Perhaps in the not too distant future, the systems can be made universal so that any encoded spools can be used with any filament changing system, sorta like QR codes. 🤞

It would be nice for them to add profiles for other filaments. I have a bunch of projects I need to print in abs but their choice of black, white, and gray leaves alot to desired for color choice... Don't get me wrong. Their hyper abs prints ( for what I have printed so far ) perfectly. I just would like a larger variety and I don't understand the tweaking of the slicer settings.. yet.. I'm learning.. Just need to find someone that can teach me. (I can't ask questions to a video.. well.. I could but .. lol.) Love the K1 max. Can't wait to get my K2 Plus!

Actually, there gave 5 promotional prices during their preorder. They sold the K2 at 50%, 40%, 30%, 20%, and finally at $1499.00. So, this is no 11/11 deal! They sold 400 units for $749.00 with the CFS at 50%. promotion. If they can give away 400 combo units for $749.00 then they can do much better for Black Friday.

good video as always, but could you maybe get a little more under the skin on how easy it is when the belt needs to be changed and the bearings are easier to change without having to completely separate it. how the belt tension is designed, whether they can be individually tightened, just like how the bed z movement is designed. is it the one with full open klipper or is it still their own version, you don't mention grace about in the video.

Grace ? So it’s the same as the K1 so it is open, but it’s not exclusive. On the belt side they will of course stretch over time but the setup should warn you when you need to do that, at the moment I’m just chucking prints at it and seeing what breaks

Those PPS-CF parts looked incredible. With multi-color printing in a heated enclosed chamber, maybe ABS will make a comeback despite the stinky smell, if there is a good vapor smoothing post process appliance that can vapor smooth an entire build platform. Multi-color structural parts is a trick that injection molding can't do. My application for multi-filament printing isn't color, it's printing parts in ABS and TPU, but TPU doesn't feed from the CFS.

The ordering process is confusing. The official Creality UK site states that is ships between 2-5 business days and that there are 33 available but pre-orders will start to be shipped on the 10th of next month. I have asked them which is which and whether it's worth cancelling my pre-order and buying again so that I can get it sooner. I don't expect a useful answer but would like to be pleasantly surprised.

@@TheRealSamPrentice I ordered it from CrealityUKOfficial about a month ago, not via the link. I needed a larger bed for a project that's currently on hold and I'm completely in the dark as to when the printer will be shipped. I'm seriously considering cancelling the order and getting another large bed machine (that actually exists!) 🙂

Thanks for the video Sam. I'm having a lot of concerns with the printer. Even your Jar Jar looked pretty bad and you said you were happy with it. I'm seeing similar issues from other reviews as well including: Too tightly rewinding in the CFS. Issues using cardboard spool. Bad quality prints/layer lines/shifts Unable to use PLA Silk in the CFS Difficulty with jams Issues with color shifts Etc I have one on pre-order and I'm experiencing a certain level of anxiety that it's going to be a nightmare, poor quality prints, and a waste of money. I'm getting stellar prints from my A1/AMS lite combo and was really hoping that this was going to be an issue free machine with high quality prints rivaling the A1 & X1C out of the box. It doesn't sound like it so far. Maybe you or others here can ease my mind a bit, or confirm my reservations.

I got you, I was happy with the jar jar print, you have to remember that’s also called from a 3 inch file, but from a file that I will paint I am happy. The CFS is loud, but I’ve not had any crazy jams, plus the bottom of the cfs has easy access to clear any blocks. The profiles do need tuning, and it’s NOT an x1c out of the box. The belt tensioner has had some issues and if that’s not “right” you will get some quality issues and potentially some movements on the color changer.

Well, to answer the question posed in the title, does the K2 Plus offer greater utility than three Bambu A1's with AMS Lite, because that is an equal price comparison. Obviously, for certain use cases, the answer is "yes". Exotic filaments and large-format multi-color prints are two of those use cases, but it seems to me that the vast majority of people would be better served by three A1's, or more accurately one A1 for 1/3 the price. I don't think anyone can call the K2 Plus a "value" printer with a straight face other than those who got a freebie or were lucky enough to get a deeply discounted one. Am I mad that I didn't get an early bird model? Yes. That was a marketing debacle because my perspective now, like most people, is that I have to pay 80% more to get the printer. I was there, I was willing, but I couldn't get the price. Balls. So now I am in no hurry to get it, and if the Bambu large-format is released before I buy the Creality during a sale, I'll get that instead.

It's creality, so it's still trash, I have 3, did have 4 until I sent the k1 back, arrived inoperable, hotend issue, another 3v2, sensor issue, another with a constant problem with this or that, don't order trash to save money pay another $100-200 get a bambu and never have a problem again. If you like working/fixing on 3d printers vs using 3d printers stay with creality.

Considering I can do that with Creality, I'm more likely to purchase a k2+ because I'll actually be able to use it with my computer rather than fiddle about with a less than needed touchscreen.
