What we like

  • Very high speed
  • Hardened nozzle prints carbon-fibre blends
  • Good price for an enclosed machine

What we don’t

  • Software is less polished
  • Needs more tuning than the P1S

Verdict

The K1C is fast and handles carbon-fibre filament well, but its software and polish trail Bambu Lab.

Speed

In fast mode the K1C finishes test prints as quickly as pricier machines.

Quality

PLA surfaces look good, but some engineering filaments need manual tuning.

Should you buy it?

A good fit if you enjoy tuning and want to save money over the P1S.
