You don't have to wait until Black Friday to score a nice deal on a legit 3D printer. Bambu Lab just launched its early Black Friday sale with discounts across its entire range of popular and highly rated printers. These are the lowest prices of 2026 across the board. Best Buy is an authorized Bambu Lab reseller and has price-matched all of the best deals. I'd recommend getting the printer from Best Buy because the return policy is much easier (simply return to your local store), shipping is usually quicker, and you accrue Best Buy rewards.

Not sure which 3D printer to get? Read on below for a bit of detail on each deal.

The Bambu P2S and P1S are the best Bambu 3D printers for most people; these are Bambu's mid-range models and offer several useful premium features at a reasonable cost. The P2S is the second generation iteration and features a host of upgrades that will warrant its higher cost for some people.

TL;DR Bambu P2S upgrades (compared to P1S):

Larger colorized 5" touchscreen display and more powerful processor

70% more extrusion force (higher flow-rate extrusion stability)

Higher resolution (1080p) camera with AI error detection

Hardened steel nozzles with 30 second nozzle swaps

Brighter LED illumination with better LiveView clarity

Combo includes AMS 2 Pro multi-filament system with active cooling

Both the Bambu P2S and P1S are almost entirely fully assembled out of the box and setup should take under 15 minutes. Unlike cheaper 3D printers, these models feature a fully enclosed chamber, which is necessary to stabilize temperature and ambient conditions in order to produce more consistent results. They boast an acceleration speed of up to 20000 mm/s² and can print a benchy in 18 minutes. A built-in camera allows you to remotely monitor the printing process.

The Combo models include the Automatic Material System or AMS. This module basically allows for multi-filament printing, which means you can use up to four different types of filament material or colors per AMS (you can daisy chain up to four AMS to manage as many as 16 different filaments). The AMS itself normally retails $350, so it's best to get it in this combo, especially if you plan on getting it anyway in the long run.

The A1 Mini is Bambu's most affordable 3D printer. This is an excellent entry level printer for someone who's just starting out. It doesn't take up much space at all, the touchscreen interface is intuitive to use, and maintenance is designed to be quick and easy. Since this is a more compact design, the A1 Mini is ideal for smaller projects using PLA filament.

The main difference between the A1 and the A1 Mini is the build volume; the A1 has a larger working area. There are some other benefits to the A1's larger footprint like a larger touchscreen, but functionally the two are nearly identical. The A1 Combo model includes the Automatic Material System or AMS for multi-filament printing.

Bambu H2C, H2D, and H2S AMS Combo 3D Printers

If you're ready to graduate to the best of the best, then Bambu's H2 large-format printer series should be on your list of potential candidates. In addition to a significantly larger build volume than the P1S, the Bambu H2 series printers have every feature you could ask for, like an enclosed and heated working space, active cooling, a multi-nozzle system (on the H2D and H2C) that minimizes purge waste and optimizes multi-color printing, a bigger touchscreen, and more.

There are three variants in the series. The H2S is the most economical model and has a single nozzle. The H2D upgrades to a dual nozzle. The H2S is the flagship model with a multi-nozzle head that can fit up to seven nozzles, making it the best option for multi-color printing. Note that although the overall dimensions are the same, the H2S has the most build volume because the nozzle head is the smallest.
