Review on πŸ–¨ SainSmart TPU Filament 1: Unleashing Top-Quality Additive Manufacturing Product by Mario Bullard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

not for merging

The filament arrived quickly and was well packaged in a sealed bag with desiccant on . I liked the color and it matched the description. This is where the good ends. I've tried the manufacturer's recommendations for settings, as well as other reviewers' recommendations, and then played around with my own a bit, and I've basically failed to get them to stick to the bed or even to itself. The only thing it's sure to stick to is my fingers. The print speed (if you can get a half stick) is very slow. Another TPU brand I bought worked much better and was easier to use. As a public service, let me do this: instead of waiting for delivery and incredibly slow print times, and then getting frustrated with poor results, just get out there, have fun, and light a $20 bill. it will be more satisfying and give you a lot less headache!

Pros
  • With the right TPU settings it's easy to print due to the excellent adhesion to the layer and the filament's tendency not to warp
Cons
  • Requires an electrical outlet
