Prusa XL+ product pages now show August 28 as the assembled machine ship date
At the August 18 check, Prusa's official product pages for the XL+ Single-Tool, Dual-Head, and Five-Head assembled printers listed August 28 as the shipping start. The August 13 announcement had said assembled XL+ printers would follow later in August without naming a day, and the August 17 status record still had no specific date. All three assembled-product pages were rechecked August 22 and continue to show August 28. Owner-upgrade timing and pricing were still unpublished at the August 18 check; the later August 22 report now covers that separate decision.
August 28 is more specific than the lineup announcement's 'later in August' wording. Buyers evaluating an assembled XL+ should still confirm the current estimate at checkout because a shipping-start date is not an individual delivery promise and timing can vary by configuration, region, and queue position. Existing XL owners deciding on the upgrade kit should move to the linked August 22 report rather than rely on this dated snapshot.
What each buyer group should do with the August 28 date
Prusa XL+ shipping status at the August 18 check: assembled Single-Tool, Dual-Head, and Five-Head product pages showed August 28 as the shipping start, and all three pages still showed that date when rechecked August 22. CORE One+ Gen 2 and CORE One L+ assembled machines had begun shipping August 14. Prusa said open unshipped orders for original CORE One+, CORE One L, and XL machines would be automatically upgraded. At the August 18 check, owner-upgrade kits were still rolling out separately and prices had not been published. The August 22 report now owns the current XL-to-XL+ kit decision.
Three groups, three actions to take now: Buyers placing an assembled XL+ order should confirm the current estimate at checkout because August 28 is a planned shipping start, not an individual delivery promise. CORE One+ Gen 2 and CORE One L+ buyers should use their Prusa account for order-specific status. Existing XL owners deciding on the owner-upgrade kit should use the linked August 22 report, which supersedes the waiting guidance in this dated record.
- Will Prusa ship all XL+ configurations starting August 28, or will some variants ship later?
- How will configuration, region, and queue position affect order-specific delivery timing?
- Will Prusa revise the August 28 shipping-start date as the first assembled orders enter fulfillment?
Use this dated record if:You are tracing when Prusa made the assembled XL+ shipping-start date specific.
Move to the August 22 update if:You own an XL and are deciding whether or how to configure the XL-to-XL+ owner-upgrade kit.
