So far loving my K1 Max! Getting started was super easy. It was packaged very well and set up was straightforward and took less then 15 min. Printed the included STL files to start and they printed flawlessly. Then I used Creality Print and it worked well it's not optimized for Mac yes but still easy to use. I've used different types of filament, PLA, hyper pla , and petg and they were all easy to get going and printed great. This printer is amazing, and it's produced some of the best prints I've ever seen. I would definitely recommend it.

Product arrived in undamaged condition, Unboxing and setup was noneventful. My biggest problem so far is I can not get the camera to work. And I do not see what (if anything) the so called "Lidar" does.
I am relatively new to 3D printing, so I'm still learning. This is my 4th printer and so far it seems to work just fine (except for the camera and ?lidar?). It is FAST, compared to my other printers (all on a Sonic Pad). I AM ANXIOUS FOR THIS TO GET FULLY OPEN SOURCED !!!!!!!

When I ordered this printer I was super exited as this printer would be a bigger, faster and better replacement for the previous printer I had. It met all my expectations! Unboxing the printer only took about 15 minutes and it was only another 15 minutes to get the first print on. At first I was unsure about what quality I would get from the 16 minute benchy but after printing it I was amazed by how well it turned out. To my standards it was almost perfect. I recently tried ABS fillement and it worked amazing. I had no issues with bed adhesion ( I was printing a part that spaned the whole length of the bed). I have not found out how to use the lidar yet but I am still learning the features of this 3D printer. Highly recommended.

When the K1 and K1 Max were announced I knew I had to have them. I ordered the K1 the minute after it went up for sale. It has been a great printer so when the K1 Max went up for sale I ordered it right away. The K1 Max got delivered today and I have to say I'm very impressed. The packaging was top notch and there was no damage. Got it set up and printing a test print within 15 minutes. The print came out excellent! I love the AI Lidar and AI camera. Those will definitely come in handy. Creality have really stepped up their game. The K1 series has a very premium look and feel and really elevate the living space. Would definitely recommend these printers to friends and family! Thanks Creality for making a quality product! I am a lifelong customer and fan!

Wow…
I started 3D printing a few years ago with the Ender 3 Pro and have spent lots of time and money upgrading and improving that printer into what it is today. I’m proud of what my Ender 3 has become and still like what I can get with it, but the K1 Max is on a whole other level! The setup was easy and initial calibration went smoothly, but what was truly impressive is the initial print.
I decided to use my own sliced file for the first print so I would get a more realistic first impression than the included test gcode. I also decided to use a model that I’ve also been printing recently with my Ender 3 for comparison. My Ender 3 is running Klipper and the Sprite Extruder Pro and prints well at 100mm/s, which is pretty good for a bed slinger, but the K1 Max blew it out of the water. Without any tuning or mucking with the slicer settings, it printed in only a quarter of the time and came out flawless! No layer\extrusion issues, no bed adhesion issues, no elephant foot, no warping, just perfection done quickly.
The fans are loud, but I feel like that’s what happens when more and more industrial printing techniques are incorporated in consumer printers. I hear the sound is comparable to what you get with the X1C, though I don’t have one to compare it to. I run the printer in the basement and close the basement door most of the way to keep the noise levels from being a nuisance to others in the house.
Overall, Creality has really upped their design chops and build quality and it really shows with this new generation of printers. As long as this thing continues to perform this well going forward, it should be a huge improvement to my production capability. I definitely don't regret this purchase!

Can't complain. Been printing for a few weeks now on the K1 max and have been really impressed. Big step up from my old Anet A8. Unfortunate others have had a bad experience, but so far mine has been great! Satisfied customer.

The K1 Max has been an awesome purchase so far! Took it straight out of the box and made a beautiful benchy. Got frisky and started a power ranger helmet... Needless to say, it printed flawlessly and amazingly fast compared to my old Ender 3 Max. Same build size, 1000% better. Would recommend the K1 series to anyone. I also own a regular K1 and would give the same feedback for that one! Picture taken from the timelapse video with included camera.
