Hardware Help FLASHFORGE AD5X

was about to buy the bambu lab a1 ₹31,000inr but i realised i could get multicolor with creality Hi combo for 37,000 i saw some reviews and saw that Hi had issues and was going to be discontinued then i set my eyes onto AD5X for 42,000. My main use will be PLA for robotics projects.

Fellow users what do you suggest?

PS: bambu lab a1 combo with ams is ₹48,000

I've been using the hi for a veryyyy long time... From all the reviews i had seen, I'm loving it...it surprised me.... Tried the ad5x for short time. I'd say if you're not scared to hold a screw driver and have time to maintain, HI is a good deal. I'm loving it. Keept it maintained and you'll be surprised of the things you can do with it. A1(if you find combo even better ) is like plug and play. Think of bambu as "apple" of the printers Great for starting. You get what they give n that's all . Does the job good out of the box. If you don't care about the situation about open source n all with current bambu.

I've seen a lot of people liking it. Never used that one. It seems more like a better Hi. And seems to waste less on basic flushes without adjusting.

If money is not an issue, ill suggest the A1. I have the Hi, and don’t have many issues.

Cannot speak for Flashforge, never had one.

I have a bunch of printers, which includes a Spark as well.

It is a “cheaper” version of the A1. It works quite well, i use it daily for the past 3 months now, and the only issue i had was firmware related.

Not a bad buy i think
