More XL reliability problems with no confidence they could be resolved, so I accepted Prusa’s offer to swap my old XL with a brand new one. In this video, we take the opportunity to see what the experience is like for new customers of the XL. Have Prusa smoothed out the process, and how does the XL compare to the flagship printers from Creality and Bambu Lab.

There is also an update on the SV08 toolchanger project too.
