Could be poor tolerances, could be poor mixing Worked ok at first and then stopped printing consistantly. Other PLA’s would work perfectly and yet this would stop after an hour or so. Could be poor tolerances, could be poor mixing, or could be heat creep in my hot end. Got frustrated enough I gave it away in the end.
Used to be good, last batch was appalling. This used to be a really good and reliable filament, then they hiked the price up and the quality got worse. I ordered three of these and they are all appallingly spooled, so bad that the printers couldn’t even pull the filament through as it was tangled, ruining multiple parts that I was printing for an order costing me more than I paid for the filament. Will not be buying again!
Prints very nicely, but it’s far more translucent than expected Prints very nicely, but it’s far more translucent than expected, so downgraded the stars as I’d rather have received proper white. See my photo of a previous different purchase of ‘white’ PLA on the left, and this PLA on the right. I’ve checked the EAN number and it’s correct – so be warned that it’s not bright white, but more of a translucent white.As I say, it prints very nicely, but might not be what you’re expecting.
