Bambu Lab 4th Anniversary Sale — First-Ever P2S Discount Launches June 15; P2S Combo $699 (Was $799) Through July 15
Bambu Lab launched its 4th Anniversary Store Sale on June 15, 2026, running one full month through July 15 across US, EU, UK, Canada, and Australia online stores. The sale includes first-ever discounts on three flagship models: P2S, H2S, and H2C — none of these printers have been discounted since launch. P2S Combo (with AMS 2 Pro) is $699, down from $799 — verified June 15 via Bambu Lab official PR; verify current price at us.store.bambulab.com before ordering. P1S also reaches a record-low price. Additional offers: subscriber bonus coupon (valid on filaments, accessories, and materials), weekly flash deals with rotating product discounts, and three separate prize draws where winners receive a full order refund.
For buyers who have been tracking the P2S as the enclosed CoreXY benchmark — the machine the Crafty Catsman uses daily for functional shop parts, laser jigs, and AMS 2 Pro drying, and the machine we recommend in the P2S vs P1S and A2L vs P2S comparisons — this is the first time a discount has been available. The one-month window gives buyers time to compare the P2S Combo at $699 against the X2D Combo at $899 (dual-nozzle, 65°C heated chamber) before deciding which Bambu lane is the better fit for their work.

💡What this means for you

Market Position: The P2S's first-ever discount narrows the gap to the X2D ($649 base / $899 Combo with AMS 2 Pro) in a meaningful way: P2S Combo at $699 is now $200 below X2D Combo. The P2S's advantage in this lane is its established field record, standard AMS 2 Pro (included in Combo), and proven ABS/ASA/PA enclosed material performance at a 110°C bed. The X2D adds dual-nozzle architecture and a 65°C active chamber but is a newer platform with less field history. For buyers already committed to the Bambu ecosystem in the enclosed CoreXY lane, the P2S Combo at $699 is the strongest price signal since the printer launched. Watching: Bambu A2L Print-then-Cut OTA firmware — no release date published as of June 15. Bambu SFC/AGPLv3 dispute — committee details 'forthcoming June 2026'; no resolution since June 14 check.
- Does Bambu Lab's anniversary subscriber coupon stack with the already-discounted P2S price — or is it limited to accessories and filament?
- Does the P2S Combo $699 price extend globally at equivalent discount depth, or is it US-specific?
- Does the anniversary sale prompt Bambu to publish a roadmap for X2D firmware features and third-party slicer support — given renewed buyer attention to the Bambu ecosystem?
⏸️ Wait if: You need dual-nozzle architecture for multi-material workflows or an actively heated 65°C chamber for high-performance engineering materials — those are X2D ($899 Combo) differentiators; the anniversary sale does not change this distinction, You are waiting on the Bambu A2L Print-then-Cut OTA — the blade module's enabling firmware has no release date; $469 A2L base price has no published expiration, so waiting costs no additional money
✅ Buy if: You want Bambu's most field-proven enclosed CoreXY printer with a 110°C bed, AMS 2 Pro drying in the Combo, and strong ABS/ASA/PA/engineering material breadth — P2S Combo at $699 is the first-ever discount on this printer; sale runs through July 15 at us.store.bambulab.com
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Bambu Lab printers are on sale for the first time during the 4th Anniversary Sale?▼
The P2S, H2S, and H2C are receiving their first-ever discounts in Bambu Lab's history during this sale. The P1S is also discounted but has been on sale in previous promotions — this sale brings it to a record-low price. The A2L (launched June 1) and X2D are not listed in the manufacturer's first-ever-discount group. Sale runs June 15 to July 15, 2026 — verify current prices at us.store.bambulab.com.
Should I buy the Bambu P2S Combo at $699 or the Bambu X2D Combo at $899?▼
The choice comes down to architecture vs. proven field record. P2S Combo at $699 gives you the established enclosed CoreXY lane: 110°C bed, AMS 2 Pro drying in the Combo, and 2+ years of community tuning data for ABS, ASA, PA, and PC materials. The X2D Combo at $899 adds dual nozzles and a 65°C active chamber but is a newer platform. If your primary workload is functional parts, shop tooling, or multi-material production where a calibrated system matters more than new features, the P2S at $699 is the stronger value during this window. Compare both at /bambu-a2l-vs-p2s and /bambu-p2s-vs-p1s.
How do the weekly flash deals and subscriber coupon work during the Bambu Anniversary Sale?▼

If you haven't subscribed yet, check the anniversary sale page to see if the subscriber window is still active. Weekly flash deals rotate each week within the June 15–July 15 window and target different product categories. There are also three separate prize draws where winners get their entire order refunded. Check us.store.bambulab.com/pages/anniversary-sale for current flash deal status.
Is the Bambu P2S Combo the same as the standard P2S — what does the AMS 2 Pro add?▼
The P2S Combo includes the AMS 2 Pro multi-material unit, which adds three key capabilities: 20-slot filament capacity (vs. 4 without AMS), active drying mode that reduces moisture-related print quality issues when the unit is idle, and automatic material switching for multi-color or multi-material prints. The Combo is the preferred configuration for anyone printing with hygroscopic materials (PA, ABS, ASA) because the drying behavior keeps filament conditioned between sessions. The base P2S without AMS 2 Pro works with single-material printing and a separately purchased AMS 2 Pro added later.
