Review on 🎨 LulzBot PolyLite PLA Filament by Polymaker: Premium Quality for Exceptional 3D Printing Results by Kris Martin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product but don't leave it in the extruder at 50C for a week

This is one of the best filaments (True Blue) I've ever used on my Lulzbot Mini. One thing I had trouble with was that I stopped printing for about 2 weeks (I don't know how that happened because the printer rarely stops for more than 2 days) and left the printer on for about a week. The hot end stayed at 50C unbeknownst to me. It looks like with prolonged exposure to heat it turned into a piece of plastic that won't melt at 300C (but will soften a bit). I had to pull it out with pliers after taking everything apart. Otherwise I've never had any problems. Being PLA it was my fault for leaving it in an environment where it might be exposed to water but I don't know how it could have happened so strangely in the extruder.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Only available in white
