So, the XL+ is finally a thing. Andy, what are your thoughts on the XL+, and are you going to consider upgrading.

I was surprised at the bed heat soaking decision for the Core One:

"We redesigned the heatbed mounting so it can warm up and stay flat without the extra wait. For PLA, PETG, and any material printed with a bed temperature of 85 °C or lower, the “Absorbing heat” step is gone. Higher-temperature materials start sooner as well."

And... a proper nozzle wiper. Nice. I really appreciate them going with a standard off-the-shelf brush. Especially after Andy's frustrations with the PTFE tube adapters.

I'll probably do the upgrade. I just hope it doesn't take too long for them to get the upgrades out... because when the L4 arrives my focus will be on that machine.
