Works, but just basely. So many openings the don't seal (2 for plugs, 1 for ventilation and 4 holes for AMS feed), I doubt its keeping VOCs inside very well. The zipper works well except at corners where its a struggle to get around the corner post.The one aspect that is concerning is that the temp gets above the max recommended operating temp of 30C/86F when zipped up. But since the documentation says it "wont get about 40 C" I suppose they are being truthful, but my A1 Mini cant operate that hot, so its an issue. I have to leave the enclosure partly unzipped to keep the temp down.If not for this design flaw I'd probably give it a 4.UPDATE: seller contacted me and stood by their product 100%. While this might have been the product for me, I'm definitely keeping them in mind for future purchases.

Despite saying it is explicitly for the BambuLabs A1 it isn’t the proper dimension for it as the rear clearance isn’t the threshold specified by manufacturer. As a result when the bed backs up the cable gets bent into the rear. This has been a known issue for BambuLabs printers in the past to cause fraying and eventually cable failure.Keeps heat pretty well contained. Although I wouldn’t go using this expecting a proper seal since you can see light through the zippers and it does have holes on the side if you don’t have the multi filament external feeder.It was good for the price and pretty sturdy for the frame… but I wouldn’t say cat proof since my cats jump on it every now and again and it bows in the top to the point it touches the top bar mounted filament wheel.Design needs work. If it didn’t say it was for this printer it would be better rating but I can’t in good conscience recommend this for A1 Printer.Assembly sucks but is meant to as it is a tight fit after you get all the metal bars in.

Assembly instructions were clear, inside looks nicely insulated, plenty of room inside for the printer, but that was a problem for the amount of space I have. Looks every bit as good as the more expensive ones on the market at a fraction of the price.

Really good overall. I bought this enclosure primarily to capture particulates and fumes from printing and it is doing a great job. I used an air quality monitor to check for particulates - outside the enclosure I have normal air while inside the PPM spikes, so it is definitely containing those pollutants.The fabric seems pretty high quality, the zippers feel a little cheap but have held up so far. The biggest con is that the enclosure is too short in length so the cable that connects the printer bed to the printer runs into it and is forced up putting extra wear on that cable. Simple solution. I just turned the printer 45° to give more room for the cable and that has worked out great.A better zipper and longer length would give this five stars, those are the only real flaws. Overall solid.

The enclosure is good for the price. It is easy to set up (though the support rods were mislabeled), and is sturdy enough for what it is needed. Seems to be well insulated keeping a good temperature inside and a low humidity level. The temperature and humidity gauge seems accurate. Material seems strong, and would not tear easily.However, there are some issues.-As stated before labels during assembly were wrong so had to sort out which rod lengths when where.-It is not at all air tight. Besides the locations for the wires, the zipper seems to have enough gaps to see through it. Might be an issue if you want to print anything besides pla.-While there is a vent mounting whole. it isn't in a great position and I will have to cut another vent whole through.However besides these issues, I think this is a good enclosure for the Bambu A1 mini and I would recommend it for those starting out. But will definitely need some modifications if you are printing anything besides PLA for both sealing and venting.

This fits my son’s A1 mini perfectly. The light is great, we used a Velcro strip to secure it to the outside of the cabinet his printer sits on so it’s easy to turn on and off. I was a little worried about the zipper at first because it was rough around the curve but after using it a few times it seems to be smoother. Hopefully it holds up! It was easy to put together and keeps the warmth in.

Great product, fits well, the poles seem sturdy and are marked according to x, y, z axis. Have to agree that some fittings feel looser than others, but nothing a bit of electrical tape won't take care of. Assembly was a breeze, if you have a hard time getting the frame in the shell, you most likely have your X and Y mixed up. The fabric and the metallic interior seem durable, but I am a bit concerned about the single stitch work (will see how long it will last). As someone else mentioned, thermometer should switch to fahrenheit but it won't. With default printer settings and 72°f ambient temp, thermometer reads roughly 30.5° Celsius max, which is .5 degrees over A1s suggested run temperature. Originally my intention was to run this with a vent, but currently, even without a vent, most of the PLA odor is gone. You will have to head over to bambu labs makerworld and download and print a poop bucket ASAP (you can get the one I designed if you search for avantconcepts). Also feel free to print and use the Seal Pins I designed to further block the AMS filament tube openings (see photos). Its not really necessary for PLA, but If you end up using your enclosure for anything else, like resin printing, it may help with the odor.Overall, for the roughly $50 price I paid on sale, you can't beat the value.
