Best 3D printer for me? Comment advice.

[JohnA136]

My son is thinking of adding a Bamboo Lab P1S for multiple color printing. It is on sale right now! Anyone have experience with this unit?

I've got an X1C with the AMS if that helps, it's been a totally different user experience for me with the Bambu Labs machine.
It was basically switch on and load some filament, send a file to print and collect the print when finished. No messing about with bed leveling etc. and everything is very automatic.

The Bambu studio/slicer app works well on my iMac, Macbook and android tablet, no more going out to the shed to start a print and then again later to check on it.

Also the spares seem reasonable and are available, and there are third party offerings for some parts.

Thank You!

New printer arrived, very easy set up and prints great so far.

For under $1000, the Creality CR-10 S5 would be a better choice

I'm interested to know why it would be a better choice? A better choice than what, and how or why it would be a better choice?

IT has a 500x500x500mm build volume, which I found to be quite large in this price segment, that is why I considered this
