Review on HATCHBOX 1.75Mm Silver Silk PLA 3D Printer Filament - Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.03Mm, 1Kg Spool by Brian Nelson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Extreme Color Variation

I really like Hatchbox plastic, because it always prints well. This "Silk" PLA is no different. Functionally speaking, it's still a great product. The issue I have with this versus Hatchbox's non-silk products is consistency. I ordered the exact same listing, and received two vastly different variations. The first was more brown, and the second is significantly more red. Enough so that I can't use both spools while printing the same parts.I included a picture for a visual. It shows the identical labels on both spools, whilst still showcasing the color variation. The only reason these aren't getting a 1-star review is due to the fact that they do still print well; as I said before. However just know that the colors may not be consistent.
