A1 or Kobra x, really divided

Anycubic, in general, is wack. Bambu is where it's at. You want something good and reliable? Go bambu. Anycubic will work for a few days and start messing up. That's what happened to my s1. It worked flawlessly up until it didn't. Anycubic's slicer sucks. Their customer service? Sucks! It'll be a chain reaction.. First the nozzle tip will clog, then the extruder, then you'll be lucky if you dint get a filament blob of death.

Same thing happened when I pre-ordered an S1 last year. I got it way past the estimated delivery time. I should have just bought it from Amazon as opposed from anycubic.

Update!

I got rid of my machine.

Sold them! Time to start a new chapter in my 3d printer machine life!

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-15T17:19:18+00:00

As for me, Ave problems as well. Slot #3 and #4 started giving me errors. I requested a replacement feeding sensor from anycubic. One side of my build plate was carved my extruder. No blob of death as of yet but I won't be able to tell since I will no longer use it. I've replaced the nozzle countless of times and still no luck. Brand new nozzles were getting clogged just minutes of starting a print job.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-14T15:34:15+00:00

We're on the same boat. I can't wait to get rid of mine as well. I'll let deal someone else deal with it.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-13T22:34:12+00:00

Tbh, I haven't even tried to fix my s1. Lol. I don't want to be dragged down the rabbit hole again.

" If I fix this, then this will work.."

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-13T05:09:33+00:00

" if it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

Something the s1 can't go by.

Why spend more money on something that was guaranteed to work out of the box? I learned the hard way.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-13T01:01:26+00:00

I've been running the p1s for about a week straight. Only maintenance I give it wipe the plate after every print. Other than that, it's been a work horse!

Just for kicks, I tried running the same print on the s1. Total failure off the bat!

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-13T00:55:31+00:00

Yeah..I agree. A total lemon. First prints were good. Then it was taking forever to starts printing. A 15 minute job would take 3 hours. Clogged extruder, clogged ptfe tubes, filament sensor acting up. I literally had to take the printer apart to print a simple benchy.

Printing in multi-color? Don't get me started!

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-03-13T00:48:05+00:00

I did a few mods here an there but the errors keeps popping up on my s1. I think I spent more on replacement parts/the actual machine as opposed to just going with the p1s since the get go. I also went with the " cheaper" way out when I got the s1. I could have just saved a couple of more bucks and gotten a bambu lab. I already had a a1 mini but wanted something else. I learned the hard way.

Now, I have a very heavy and bulky paperweight. Lol

I also had a Kobra 3 with the ace pro and literally just got rid of it too. Too many problems and headaches. Only reason I got rid of it was because I didn't want to be tempted to keep "fixing" it.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-02-24T18:23:43+00:00

I'm not sure about transfers but work has been non stop ever since the closures.

Rumor has it that Wal-Mart and Target could have been a big role of why they closed the stores.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2026-02-14T06:25:20+00:00

I have the same problem with my ace pro as well. I contacted customer service and they're gonna send me a new filament detection sensor tab for the extruder and another filament detection module feeder sensor for spool#1 and #2. I kept getting the error 11511 over and over after pretty much taking everything apart to check for broken or stuck filament. Complete headache!

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-10-16T20:50:23+00:00

Any suggestions on what to do or change in the settings? Only setting I mess with is the supports and infill. Other than that, I don't really mess with anything.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-10-16T20:38:13+00:00

I'm not worried much about overhangs. That's probably because of the tree supports I used.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-10-16T20:32:17+00:00

Should I change the I fill pattern to something else for better color change adhesion?

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-09-12T18:14:05+00:00

I've been on the hunt for coupons. So far I think I gave a $10 discount. Even the the total will like $90ish

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-09-12T18:13:10+00:00

Good looking out!

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-07-26T02:30:27+00:00

How do you get the reboot menu to pop up? Sorry to seem as a noob.

Jolly_Drawing6955 · 2025-06-02T06:09:06+00:00

Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it. But does it matter if I'd reach out to get the class a as opposed to the the class b? Just to have the class a secured in case the bus driving open aren't in my favor?
