I bought a Bambu P1S with AMS for Black Friday - something like eur 100 off and a couple of free spools of filament on top of the 3 250g samples they pack in the box. I've only had it about 4 days but it's pretty decent. It's a little loud, but it's fast and enclosed so potentially I could use it with more exotic stuff than PLA. My old printer is an Ender 3 Pro with upgraded board & BL Touch and I reckon this new one is 4x as fast. It's incredibly easy to use - autolevelling, Core XY, filament loading. Only downside is it poops filament out the back and so I reckon I'll have to 3d print a poop slide to bring it around and to the front. The Bambu slicer is a fork of Prusa Slicer - I wish it wasn't so egregiously different graphically but if you've used Prusa Slicer then it's more or less the same except for how prints are sent to the printer.
I've not used a Prusa to compare. People say they're workhorses but I wonder if the Prusa Mk 4 was rushed out judging by some people's comments about the firmware.
