My X1 won’t travel in the Y direction further than the picture shows. It should move a lot further to the right (forward). After much back and forth with Bambu Labs tech support they are now requesting I ship back this unit and they will replace it.

When I first opened the box and homed it, it banged and knocked really bad but I thought maybe that’s what these do. Now I know they shipped me a defective unit that I apparently can’t be directed to fix.

Makes me wonder how you fix this machine if something goes wrong in the future?

This is why I prefer the simple low cost 3D Printers. Easy to fix, easy to get parts and worst case relatively inexpensive to replace.

That initial out of box experience is critical. The CR-6 was much maligned for this but mine worked like a champ from day 1 and still does. On the other hand my Anycubic Vyper took 3 months of customer support and parts to fly right. I could never enjoy it after that experience and ended up selling it. I am on the sidelines watching this next class of 3D printers evolve and emerge. From what I've seen of this printer, I wonder what they will be like after a couple of hundred hours of printing - looked like a lot of plastic in there. Any owners care to comment? Looking forward to your review of this printer after many years of you perfecting Creality bed slingers.
