I have the K1 and so far love it. Everyone complains of the fan noise. If you have a fan you have noise.The more air you move the more noise you have. My printer is in a room cooler than usual and I print with the top on and the noise is quite a bit less. If you can keep the chamber temperature below 30 degrees you will have no problems with any of the PLA filaments. That is my experience but like always results vary from person to person. Good printing.
I keep mine in my garage, so the fan noise doesn't bother me. Also I know that since it is a core xy moving very fast, it makes noise and that's the nature of the beast. I put hinges on m y lid so I can open it up when printing PLA so heat creep doesn't happen. I really like this printer.

Welcome!
Great review, I am planning on purchasing another machine this year, I'm just waiting to see how all this shakes out. The K1 is on the list, as well as the X1Carbon but a huge difference in price there, but the multi color ability is very cool. So until the decision I'll continue to use my old ender3, which still works. Thanks so much for sharing with us!!
Thanks for watching!
You can add a 4 color 3d chameleon for 199
I love mine too . I don`t use mine flat out , I don`t see the need , if you use it at a sensible speed , the print quality is AMAZING !
Totally agree!
great review your prints looks great no ringing or ghosting
Thanks!
Thank you for this well balanced review.
Glad it was helpful!
The link to Bondtech CHT Volcano Nozzle . Do you need the 0.4mm for the K1? Thanks!
I did replace with the .4 mm. You can do a .6 also!
Is there a recommended process for cleaning dust/bugs out that may accumulate in a shop environment? I noticed this isn't a perfectly sealed unit so it'd definitely going to get dusty in there.
I just usually blow these out with low pressure from my compressor and wipe down with IPA. Works pretty good.
Thank you! Finally a unbiased review😅
Will you be reviewing the K1Max?
I don't know. If Creality sends me one and asks me too, I will!
Nice review, Guy! I own the Bambu X1 Carbon with AMS along with 11 Artillery SWX2's that are in my print farm. Unfortunately, the build volume on the K1 is a deal breaker for me as it's just too small for what I print. My Sidewinders run on average at 150mm/s all day every day, and I easily get 300mm/s out of the X1C. This new generation of printers is quite a leap in technology from my SWX2's, which really aren't that old. I truly am looking forward to seeing what 3D printing is bringing in the future.
While I don't think the K1 is quite there yet, they did hit about 85% of what the Bambu Labs P1P is, and as a hobbyist machine, it is definitely head and shoulders above what other manufacturers have to offer in the industry. As always, I look forward to your next video, and I'll be checking out your podcast!
The Podcast is great. I really enjoy it. They answer questions from the listeners, they have answered 2 of mine so far.
Thanks! I hope you enjoy the podcast!
Thanks John !
K1 max build volume will put x1c to shame bub lmao
@@irbose9895 yes it will, and I definitely have the K1 Max on my radar. Thanks for reminding me! A lot will depend on other aspects of the Max though, such as mmu compatibility, reliability, functionality, and quality of print, among others.
Awesome revirew Guy, thank you for the video. If you don't mind me asking, do you have any suggestions on reducing the k1's noise? I don't mind reducing the speed if I can reduce the noise enough to use on my home office while in a meeting, for example. I tried reducing both side fan and model fan to 50% but it still is pretty loud. I tried a 75% model fan and 0% side fan setting but now the machine movements are too loud lol, even though I reduced speeds and acceleration D:
Anyways, sorry for the rambling, thank you again for the honest review and for the tip about using a cht nozzle, I'm definitely upgrading mine with one.
If the sound is an issue, print ABS with the doors closed and slow down the fans and speed. Get an activated charcol filter for the fan in the back to deal with the smell. That's abouot the only thing I can think of. My P1P is pretty noisy as well. I Think it is a common issue with the Core XY printers.
My issue and only gripe is with the right side lead screw. I have about 1.44-1.46mm of play. Other than that haven’t had any issues with extrusion. Because of the play I’m unable to print
That is a lot of play! Has Creality working with you to fix the issue I hjope?
Anyone see a value of the CREALITY Sonic pad with a K1/K1max?
Not necessary at all. Both are running a version of Klipper and the firmaware does allow input shaping and pressure advance.
I just purchased one of these. I am wondering why the R is so messed up on the front. Did it come that way?
Yes. It doen't effect the printer though :)
Other reviewers blamed the extruder for the under extrusion. Did all your problems go away when you changed to volcano nozzle?
All of them. I have about 120 hours on the machine. Maybe over time the extruder will start to have issues due to the stress on the scres that Nathan talks aboout at @nathanbuildsrobots
@@GuysShop I might be wrong, but it seems the volcano nozzle manages to fix the extruder issues. Anyhow did you get the long promised revised version or it was the first batch that you have?
@@sabotage3d This was not the engineering samples. It was from the first production batch
Have you tried printing overture PETG with that printer?
Yes! It worked fine.
It's good that that nozzle makes the machine work, but I shouldn't have to spend an extra cent on a $700 machine( for me) to make it work as advertised!
The 3d community needs to stop taking crap from the manufacturers, sure you might have bought an ender 3 for $100, but now we're talking machines up to and over $1000.
You don't have to spend an extra cent. You can either just take the bowden tube out of the cable chain or use the super special creality filament. I get what you're saying about it though, and I agree with you. I am just letting others know my experiences with it, and how to remedy the situation.
Well, if I take the bowden tube out of the cable chain, I have to print another part so the tube doesn't scratch the top cover, you see ,stop fixing the manufacturer's problem otherwise 3d printing will never become a consumer product and that seems to be the manufacturers' wish anyway
Guy, did you have to use some sort of heat paste when installing the CHT nozzle? Really useful review thanks. Laurie. NZ.
It’s $600 compared to bambu $1200 lmao.
@@LWJCarroll I didn't use any paste. I'm sure you could though. Thanks for watchig!
I can't seem to find your p1p review though..
I never posted a review of the P1P.
@@GuysShop oh. You used it though, right?
@@kyleb4327 u can’t find it bc he didn’t review it lmao why is that so hard to understand bambu pumper
@@irbose9895 he's comparing it to the p1p? Says the k1 is way better.. you think he'd review the p1p. Talk about pumper lol. How's that wire wrap fix for your k1 extruder looking? Fancy?
@@kyleb4327 can it print high temp filament lmao. Try again numb skull 💀
How could I not follow you as my name is Guy too.
Haha 😂
Definitely not the winner over the bambu, but certainly adequate.
Calm down bambu pumper and take a deep breath
We can agree to disagree. Thanks for watching!
Please print some cf
Guy, are you not woodworking anymore?
Yes I am. Just no projects to do.
