Review on ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ SILK PLA 3D Printer Filament by Amazon Basics: Enhancing Additive Manufacturing Products and Supplies by Aaron Urena

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Nice looking prints. not the easiest filament to use

I found this filament produced a very nice glossy print once ejected. However, printing on it was much more difficult than on many other filaments. I had to increase the temperature to 220ยฐC and lower the print speed to 2000mm/min in 0.1mm layers to ensure smooth extrusion. I swapped it out for a different material and went back to more normal settings with no issues, so it looks like the material is the problem.

Pros
  • Built in spool sensor shows percentage of material remaining and approximate length remaining
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
