Bambu Lab’s R1, announced in September, is a separate CO₂ laser cutter and engraver priced at $2,499 in the U.S. before tax, with shipping included. Bambu describes a shared account and MakerWorld ecosystem, plus Mac support through Bambu Suite.
Its optional conveyor, rotary attachment, alternate lenses and air purification system are important to the real cost. Bambu positions the R1 for larger wood and acrylic projects, curved objects and production workflows; the included package does not contain every accessory shown in promotional material.
Your H2D Pro already has a 40-watt laser, so the question is not whether a laser would be fun. It is whether the R1 adds a material, thickness, work-area or repeatability capability that changes a project you cannot currently make. Use the official specifications and accessory pricing to answer that before buying.
Review Bambu’s R1 material and accessory list against the cork, acrylic and wood projects you actually want to make; price the complete setup before considering it.
