Creality K1 Review | The one for Tinkers

Hi guys, it's Lau, a new review video. Creality K1 SPEEDY, late review video, as always, lol.
I bought this printer back to early OCT this year, spending good month on it. Love and hate experiences, I actully do a lot of research before I bought it, well, stay on K1 group on different platform and check out people's post.
Trying to get more information but not getting bias, sometimes it is hard to tell if a lot of non function complaint post is more like a machine issue or user error. But anyhow, I have spending a lot of time on my K1, I think it's time to bring my opiniont to you guys.
It takes more than a month to testing the machine, doing research, many hours of recording, over 5000 words of notes and other stuff during the process, and finally over 15 hours of editing. Hope this video is helpful you! Let me know on the comment section below if you have any thought.
