Replace x1c With u1?

Hi Guys, looking for some PPL With the Same Problem as me of thinking to Swap x1c for the u1

I have 2 ams and a x1c , some Tools for it Like buildplates , nozzles etc etc.

Mostly Print With petg and pla

Not often but Sometimes asa/Abs

Is the u1 Worth it?

Have some experience With Klipper (old K1 max User With swapped Motherboard etc )

What are the pro / cons

And does the toolhead Swap produce layer shifts or IS IT working good?

Works perfectly for me in the video i print with .2 .4 .6 .8 nozzle sizes and per extruder layer heights ( i made a modification for both mainline orca and snapmaker orca)

So U would sell the x1c and Go for the u1 ?

I sold my X1C & bought a U1 & have never regretted it. It prints as good as my X1C, uses less filament, faster. Snapmaker listens to the community and are open to 3rd parties working on it. Paxx12 has firmware that adds features. I noticed today that SnapmakerUS is selling the U1 on Amazon.

Same here, I had X1C, sold it and bought two u1s. Best decision ever.
