Need advice before buying

Has anyone switched from a Prusa printer to a Bambu H2D?

I am struggling with the decision whether to replace my Prusa CoreOne with a Bambu H2D… Apart from all the innovations, print size, finish and quiet operation, what interests me most is the print quality. I’ve been searching for two days and can’t find a specific answer or comparison of print quality. Thanks in advance for your reply.

The CoreOne does not directly compete with the H2D. This will make it difficult to find a fair comparision. The CoreOne competes with the X1C.

I ask…why replace when you can have 2?

I agree with alllll that. I have a CoreOne and the H2D. The print quality on the CoreOne is outstanding but that’s the only factor that’s close. The H2D is better in every other way (IMHO). I can print some samples from both for you and post them tomorrow.

@CincinnatiDesigns when I suggested you guys update your avatars to Thanksgiving themed I knew… I just knew… I thought for sure Malc would beat you to that though :rofl:

Only reason is that working space is limited. I will buy H2D I believe. And try to sell CoreOne but if it won’t sell I’ll have both :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

That would be a huge help for me :pray:t2:

I outsource my artwork to others.

@CincinnatiDesigns seems particularly interested in playing dress up with me.

Here you go. I used the Voron cube scaled to 250%. I printed the cube on the H2D and then moved the roll of filament to the CoreOne to make it as scientific as possible. I used the standard .20 profile in both slicers. In all pictures the H2D is on the left and CoreOne on the right.

The printing time was practically the same – a little under 6 hours. However, Bambu was practically silent during printing compared to Prusa.

I am satisfied – although I printed on a printer at work. My printer for private use has not yet arrived at the warehouse :slight_smile:
Many thanks to each and every one of you for all your help. And a huge thank you to @PrinterMcgee for your dedication :slight_smile:
