What's the maximum layer height I can achieve on a consumer 3D Printer?

I'm using a bambulab a1 mini more specifically but I'm interested in all answers to that question.

Personally, I think the look of the extrusion can be quite nice if it's not trying to be hidden – especially with transparent PETG or something similar.

Chubby is possible but not without designing your own process/machines

This exact reference made me want to print in huge layers since years. But I only got a 3D printer this year. It's the first step ^^ Will see if it's worth it for me to go this far. For now I want something more practical just to try out different things.
