Creality K1 Review: A Speedy New Flagship

Creality K1

Creality’s new flagship 3D printer is an enclosed Core XY speedster that is neither an Ender nor a CR something. Like Cher, Madonna and Bono, this printer only needs one name: K1.

The K1 is being dubbed a Bambu clone due to its similarities to the groundbreaking Bambu Lab X1 Carbon. But it’s not really a clone, even if it shares speed and style points. The K1 uses a Creality Sprite hotend, a Volcano inspired nozzle first seen on the massive CR-M4 and a notched build plate the same size as an Ender 5 S1. It’s also running a limited version of Klipper firmware.
