Review on Flashforge Galaxy Black 1 - Optimized Spool Size and Eco-friendly Composition by Justin Hines

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Fragile and doesn't fit in a 3D forge finder

I bought it at first thinking it was my regular PLA and to be honest I didn't pay much attention to the quantity I got. When I first saw the reel I was surprised at the size, tested it and of course, like many others, it didn't fit. No big deal, I have 3 old reels so I started the difficult task of rewinding PLA. Again not big. However, after three prints, the whole roll of my printer broke, I mean crashed. I take care of the printer now and force load the broken PLA into the printer to finish the 7 hour print where it crashed in the middle. During the redistribution process, I also noticed that the PLA was tangling itself in the old spool, so even if it fit in my old printer, it would still get stuck and break, and due to its fragility, it would probably still break in the printer. .

Pros
  • 3D printing filament
Cons
  • Very expensive
