I’ve been struggling with my K1 since Christmas. I bought it on sale for Black Friday and no matter who I contact at Creality, no one can tell me what replacement parts to order. K1 parts don’t fit my printer. They want pictures to see what ‘buckle’ I have, because my serial number isn’t enough information, but who wants to tear down a printer just to take pictures? Now my thermistor is broken (a leg weld just fell right off while I was fixing a clog), and I can’t order a new one because what do I order? This printer doesn’t take K1 parts. Every time I order something, it has to get shipped back. I’m annoyed and venting, but also trying to help anyone else considering a Creality printer. Don’t do it. Their support is a joke and they take zero accountability.

    I had a CR-10 vSomething a while back. Never really knew the version because it seemed like amalgamation of all their revisions.

    I spent more time calibrating and dialing it in than actually printing. That was the first and last Creality product I owned.

    I currently have a P1S but with the anti-consumer show they’ve been putting on if I do have to replace it I think the only printer I’d consider is something Prusa. Even though I’ve never had one, my first printer was a crappy Prusa clone that still was easier than anything else I’ve had aside from the P1S.
