Should I buy a used Bambu Lab P1S?

The fastest reliable enclosed 3D printer we have tested. Used examples at £650–£850 with AMS Lite are the best-value multi-material printing entry point on the UK used market. When buying used, check battery health above 85% for near-new performance, confirm firmware is current, and verify all dock accessories are included.
