Just a few years ago, the Creality Ender 3 was the one to beat. Fast forward to 2025 and modern printers are orders of magnitude faster and more reliable. Creality may have once been the dominant player, but Bambu Lab had other plans. The X1C shook up the industry, forcing Creality and the rest of the industry to play catch up. In this video, I take a look at Creality's answer to Bambu: the K2 Plus, to see if it stands a chance of regaining Creality the crown as leaders in this industry. Rather than focusing on benchmarks, I decided to put the printer to work, integrating it into my print farm for a monthand printing real parts for real customers.
