Review on ESUN 1.75mm 3D Printer Filament, 2.2lbs - Top Additive Manufacturing Product in Printing Supplies by Ananta Crowley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A little too brittle and crumbly.

Benefits, delivery and packaging were as expected. The color is pretty much the same as what I saw on screen when ordering. some ABS. Suitable for non-structural jewelry. Holds up well as a mounting plate on a jeep dashboard (nearly black jeep and it was hot so passed a good test after printing). Cons, the color is just a little on the "peach" side of the orange. But now that I realize it, it's more obvious to me in the picture. Adhesion wasn't as good as Hatchbox ABS. (Not that sticky, even with temperature compensation to stay in the middle of the range.) New out of the sealed box, straight onto the Prusa i3 Mk2 and it spattered and ripped through the layers. (Not just on the first layer, but on the entire print). This combined with brittleness led to numerous failures in a project I was working on. Including NOS IC-706-MK2G head reset. (not cool)

Pros
