Do not buy... modular bed has problems, spring steel sags causing uneveb bed temperatures...
I bought this as a replacement for my original bed, that was nearing close to a year old. Lulzbot has some design issues here that will not be solved regardless of what they tell you on the phone. The spring steel they use sags o the edges, in between the leveling washers, and even worse in the middle of the bed. I was having trouble with ABS parts warping on this bed, whereas they print absolutely fine on my old bed. Upon investigation i noticed a small 1mm gap between the glass in the spring steel. They will tell you that this is by design, it's not. Infrared confirmed my fear, the gap is causing temperatures way lower than what the thermistor is reading. setting the bed at 110c will net you a temperature thats nearly 30c lower than that. Using binder clips around the edge of the bed will help a little bit and now I'm just 20c short of target temperature. I started going through lulzbot to find a resolution, but the hoops they want you to jump through in order for them to replace with another defective/designed flawed unit are too much to deal with. Returning for refund.

Trash, do not buy
Not a question, but a warning, this product is defective and lulzbot knows it. Yet they are still selling it,. The metal is super thin and has so much bed sag its unusable, SAVE YOUR MONEY
