Im loving the Bambu printers have had ender's in the past and need a standard sized second printer to speed up some work flows. I already have a H2D and was looking at the A1 and the P1P, mainly will be using these for PLA/PETG but sometimes use PC (but can do others on the H2D) my question is is there 200 benifit from the P1P?
 
Bambu p1p been out for a while now, has no other manufacturer surpassed it?

In the past I had 3 enders, I am used to sticking with one brand makes my workflow easier I guess? When I got the H2D I just gravitated to that more than the enders and ended up selling them all off.

I've not followed the 3d printer market too much so dont know if there is a better choice?
 
Unless you're doing taller prints that would benefit from core X Y, I would just go with the A1. I have the P1S and have quite bad VFA issues. Also are you do doing multicolour? While both the A1 and P1P both have their own AMS systems the P series is better due to being enclosed (you mentioned PETG so moisture is easier to control) and takes up less space.

Mainly small items not much multi colour prints and I already have a few ams2 pros but they don't work on either the a1 or p1 atm.
 
I'd get an A1 and stick to using that for the basic PLA non multicolour stuff.... But all i've seen of the H2D is complaints so I'm not sure how much of a backup you need for that.

Not had one issue with H2D already has over 200 hours on it. The H2D is usually doing long prints just want the second for testing fitment and drafts.

I do single colour PLA only prints on my A1 and it's been perfect, I'm not sure there's a need for you to spend any more?
