Filamora Studios › Choosing a 3D printer
Bambu Lab X2D
A 256 mm enclosed printer with two nozzles and an actively heated chamber: two materials (or a soluble support) with far less waste than one nozzle swapping, and engineering filaments that need warmth.
- Build size: 256 × 256 × 260 mm
- Body: Enclosed
- Price: about £569 (UK)
Our take
A 256 mm enclosed printer with two nozzles and an actively heated chamber: two materials (or a soluble support) with far less waste than one nozzle swapping, and engineering filaments that need warmth. Bambu Lab’s step up from the P2S.
What’s good
- Two nozzles: less waste and faster two-colour and two-material prints
- An actively heated chamber for ABS, ASA, nylon and the like
- Up to 25 colours with AMS units
- A 256 mm plate, the size our templates are made for
Worth knowing
- The plate is a little narrower when both nozzles print
- Costs more than the P2S for something most people print in PLA
- Two nozzles are more to look after
What you can make on it
It prints 115 of our 117 customisable 3D templates in one piece.

Compare it with
- Bambu Lab P2S: For printing a lot, or tougher materials: faster, and enclosed.
- Bambu Lab H2D: Bambu Lab’s flagship with two nozzles on a 350 × 320 mm plate: two materials with little waste, an actively heated chamber, and optional laser and cutting modules that make it a laser engraver too..
- Bambu Lab H2C Combo: The H2 with a nozzle changer: it swaps between induction-heated hotends from a rack, so many-colour prints waste far less filament than one nozzle purging between colours..
