Mid-cycle — watch for announcements before buying
Best for: Professional makers and studios who need Bambu's largest enclosed build volume for high-throughput production, engineering materials, and optional AMS multicolor — without the complexity of dual-nozzle printing.
Full details →This printer is no longer sold new. It has been replaced by the Qidi Tech Plus5.
Best for: Makers and small businesses who need a large enclosed build volume for engineering materials at a prosumer price — particularly those printing PA-CF, ABS, and PC at scale. Look for clearance deals — the Plus5 is the current model.

The H2S offers more than twice the print volume of the X2D. At 1000 mm/s it is also among Bambu's fastest printers, making it the top choice for high-throughput professional production.
The enclosed chamber with active heating handles the full engineering filament spectrum — ABS, ASA, PA, PA-CF, PC, and PPS — with consistent results across the full build plate.
The H2S supports up to 12 AMS units (4 AMS 2 Pro + 8 AMS HT), enabling 24-filament printing for large-format multicolor production.
One of the largest build volumes in the prosumer enclosed category — 40% more printable area than the Bambu X1C at a lower price point.
The second-generation active heating delivers consistent chamber temperatures for PA, PA-CF, ABS, ASA, and PC with minimal warping across the full build plate.
Handles high-performance engineering composites including PA-CF, PET-CF, and PPS-CF without requiring a separate hotend upgrade.
