Review on IC3D Green Bright 1 by Ron Houston

Revainrating 3 out of 5

IC3D changed its red color to a dark, ugly shade

Until recently, I exclusively used IC3D Red PETG because I liked the consistency of the filament and the shade of red. However, they switched their batch of dye to red and didn't say anything about it here to warn shoppers. The newly changed IC3D red is very dull and dark - it looks terrible when you want a bright red. Now it's more of an aged brick red which I DID NOT want and is very different from what it used to be. I found Overture Red PETG to be a bright fire engine red, much closer (but even better than) the IC3D red. I will be returning the unused IC3D and will stick with the Overture Red PETG for now.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Newer model could be selected
