The H2D is the newest 3D printer from heavyweight Bambu Lab, but is it a step forward or lacking innovation? In this video, we take an honest look at the whole experience, from unboxing and setup to printing with various materials. Comparisons are also made to competitors like the Creality K2 Plus and Prusa XL.
This printer was supplied free of charge by Bambu Lab for the purpose of review. No sponsorship, no affiliate links, just my honest opinion and transparency on what went right and wrong. Review policy: teachingtechyt.github.io/reviewpolicy.html
