What reviewers say
Creality K2 Pro Combo 3D Printer
- 4.7 / 558 ratings
Rated 4.7 out of 5 from 58 ratings. Owners praise the enclosed build, chamber heating and multi-color output; the main complaints center on size, weight and filament waste during color changes.

- Chamber heatingPraisedThe 60 °C chamber is credited with fewer warps and stronger ABS and PPA-CF parts.
Questions and answers
- Which is better for printing ABS?
- The K2 Pro. Its active chamber heating holds up to 60 °C, which cuts warping on ABS and ASA. The P1S has an enclosure but no active heater.
- Is the K2 Pro worth the extra money?
- Only if you need the bigger build volume or the heated chamber. At $569.00 versus $479.99, the P1S is the better value for PLA and PETG work.
- Which has the larger build volume?
- The K2 Pro, at 300 × 300 × 300 mm. The P1S prints about a 256 mm cube.
- Can both print in multiple colors?
- Yes. The K2 Pro uses the 4-bay CFS for up to 16 colors, and the P1S uses the AMS, also expandable to 16 colors.
- Which is faster?
- The K2 Pro is rated to 600 mm/s with 20,000 mm/s² acceleration. The P1S is rated to 500 mm/s. Real print times depend on the model and profile.
- Which is easier to move?
- The P1S, at 34.1 lb. The K2 Pro weighs 23.7 kg, about 52 lb, and measures 445 × 505 × 850 mm.
