I thought there were several reasons the "A" frame style has gone out of favor, including cost, assembly time, number of parts & flex. For development to still continue after they were more or less discontinued by everyone else a year and a half ago seems odd.

I made a Huxley Duo and are happy with it.

Not too hard to assemble and to calibrate.
The printbed I also fixed pretty fast, I had it covered with kaptan tape as in the instructions, but the prints didn't stick well, probably the temperature was not correct. I added Frogtape which works great.
My fourth print was good. :-)

Still working on perfecting the settings as a beginner. But amazed to get printing that fast on my first homebuild 3D printer.
