Review on πŸ–¨οΈ High-quality Stronghero3D PLA 3D Printer Filament 1 by George Utley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wanted to give 5 stars.

I like this thread. The colors are great, the shine is fantastic, the quality is consistent, but there's one big problem. The thread slightly stuck to itself in about a dozen spots on the outside of the one-inch-thick spool. Several times I found that the thread stuck to the next thread or two as if laminated under the action of heat. That extra torque caused some bad impressions and made for a disappointing week. At the end of the making of this reel, the quality control didn't match the work. However, to avoid this problem, I recommend manually moving the filament to a new spool. Rewinding a full spool should show all the holds and allow you to sort through them easily. Extra strong lugs may need to be cut off to prevent the sprocket from dragging in the weak area, but lighter lugs do not change performance once separated. Now I can print with this material completely freely. I only wish I had thought of switching sooner. Tldr: The best gradient rainbow I've tried, but it requires some prep work to get reliable results. Note: An image is obviously bad. The second is a working but unfinished print after rewinding.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
