EDIT NOTICE: I accidentally wrote “A1 Mini” in the meme instead of just “A1” out of habit. There’s no proof for the Mini to also be affected yet. My bad, sorry. It’s the A1 that might burn your house down.

    Right?! A Mini+ refresh that pushes down the costs without sacrificing performance (very much doable I think, they’d have basically zero R&D cost for that) to hit the 249€ mark would most likely sell like hot cakes, simply because it’s both rather affordable and Prusa! Especially right now.

    I do hope they work on something. The fact the website apparently only offers the Mini+ Enclosure Bundle by now might indicate they’re emptying shelves, though they’ll never sell those off at that ridiculous price (500€ semi-assembled).

      For real! I love my Prusa Mini so much. I mostly do electronics, and the print volume is perfect for the small enclosures I need to print for that.

      But after having played around with the MK4S, I really do miss a lot of the new features. I met Josef Prusa at Open Sauce last year, and tried my best to convince him that they need to do a v2.
