Review on 🖨️ Gizmo Dorks Additive Manufacturing Products: 3D Printing Supplies and More by Alex Barr

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Formula changed - now awful

Gizmo's translucent blue PETG thread was my favorite thread but it was never in stock. I started printing with PLA and it held up great and was just as beautiful. I started getting orders a while ago, but the thread was looking rather grim. Still translucent (not important to me) but not nearly as transparent as before. My prints started losing hair. No threads like I have a retraction problem but tiny scraps. Then blockages, half-squeezes and problems began. I've been so in love with this thread for the past two months that I've spent endless hours troubleshooting the printer and slicer myself, refusing to admit it was a thread bug (new formula). The other day, without changing anything, I changed the threads. The prints are as flawless as ever, which for me is a huge disappointment about Gizmo Dorks. Their old white roll prints just fine but now I'm afraid to order a new product from them because who knows what they changed and made it worse. I would give this one star but the thread is really good as I typed before.
