Bambu Lab A1 at a glance

The A1 is a fast, easy-to-use FDM printer from Bambu Lab. It has a 256 x 256 x 256 mm build volume, automatic bed levelling, vibration compensation and a touchscreen. It is available as a printer on its own or as a combo that includes the AMS lite for multicolour printing.

Who it suits

Beginners get good results quickly because calibration is largely automatic. Hobbyists and designers use it for models, prototypes and everyday parts. Small businesses use it for product samples, jigs and short production runs.

Single colour or multicolour combo

The standalone A1 prints with one filament at a time. The combo adds the AMS lite, which holds several spools and switches between them during a print, which is useful for colourful models and multi-material designs.

What to know before you buy

The A1 is an open-frame machine, so it is best with PLA, PETG and TPU rather than materials that need an enclosure. Keep it on a stable surface, check you have space for the build volume and plan your filament supply.
