Just placed my order. Very simple process. Who else has made the plunge today? Can’t wait to upgrade…

Ordered the kit this morning! I think the price is Fair to reply to someone complaining uptop. 1300msrp for the screen/controller. 4 closed loop steppers, all wires, sensors, draglinks, PowerSupply ect… how 2K for this kit is unjustifiable is laughable. Start a business out sell kits cheaper, doub…

Am I completely happy with the upgrade price… No… But am I happy that there is an upgrade with all the parts and pieces being delivered to door without me having to go down the rabbit hole. And the parts that are being replaced are the most likely to have issues and I get a longer warranty on those…

I know exactly what you are saying, but I am just too swamped with real work and side hustle work to take on another learning path of 3D Printing. Although I am sure there is lots similar activity that is transferable and I would love to do it, but I suspect that I would make a purchase and I would …

I am failing to see the issue with the price of the kit. It is cheaper than if you pieced it our yourself. You also get a 1-year warranty on the complete machine. The cost for the RD and time to put the kit together, and warranty, is the old hardware that I would assume anyone interested in this set…

Price breakdown for major parts: 1 x Masso controller $1290 3 x Closed loop steppers $411 3 x homing switches $114 1 x Power Supply $43 That’s $1858 there, and we haven’t talked about custom wiring, hardware, drag chain, or warranty.

I am glad that there is a path for an “upgrade”. However,arent the non-Elite machines perfectly capable?Cant the original model(in my case the X50 WoodWorker),do everything that the Elite models can?Seems to me that the money would be better spent on a spindle upgrade for instance.I certainly would …

Hey allmodcons, hey all, [image] allmodcons: However,arent the non-Elite machines perfectly capable?Cant the original model(in my case the X50 WoodWorker),do everything that the Elite models can? I commented a bit on this question here the other day

non-elite machines are more than capable. Look at it this way, it’s the same car, but different trim levels. They’ll all get you to the same spot, just the higher end one has more comfort features at a cost.

Makes sense but we are returning the BB hardware as well. So it would be reasonable for it to be 2000 - X. But seems like there is no discount for us sending back the BB hardware that OF can/will resell. So are we subsidizing the OF IPP program ourselves then?

The ‘discount’ for sending your old items (and the return shipping we pay) is built into the displayed cost. IE: the cost displayed is after the ‘discount’.

For those already have Z-20, if we select the without Z-20 kit, will it come with 4 closed loop motors, or 3 motors? Thanks.
