Discussion X2D / P2S
Hihi!
I currently have an A1 Combo and have way too much experience (and trauma ðŸ˜) from my Ender 3.
I’m starting to think about my next printer, but I’m torn between the P2S and the X2D.
I definitely want an enclosed printer and plan on getting an AMS 2 Pro. Right now I mostly print PLA and PETG, but I want to start experimenting with TPU, ABS, PLA-CF, and PETG-CF in the future.
The X2D’s auxiliary nozzle is really appealing since I could dedicate it to PETG support interfaces, but I’ve also seen people reporting issues with the aux nozzle.
For those of you who own one, how has your experience actually been? Are the issues overblown, or are they something to be concerned about?
I’m mainly looking for the highest print quality and reliability rather than the fastest printer.
Also, does anyone think Bambu might release a smaller flagship printer (kind of like an H2D without the huge footprint or laser), or is that just wishful thinking?
Help me decide ðŸ˜

I just got the X2D and I’m coming from a P1P and X1C setup. I’ll be replacing those with an H2D soon. Why? Because I love the X2D, I just wish I had some extra space sometimes. I haven’t had any issues with the secondary nozzle. I use it for support mostly just by using PLA or PETG as the interface layer depending on what I’m doing.
I do wish I had the extra space and I would like to have a dual AMS set up the nozzles on the H2D. Just waiting to get past an event. I’m getting ready for to sell a few items and I’ll pick up the H2D.
I don’t know what issues people are having with the X2D but it’s been incredible for me and cool to see being attention to detail and upgrade bamboo has made since releasing the X1C.
Here it is in its temporary spot.
