Review on ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ Enhance Your 3D Printing with YOUSU Flexible TPU Filament by Michael Hellewell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

TPU is such a useful material for functional printing

I use my 3D printer to create functional parts, not to print models or toys. I've found TPU to be really useful for many purposes. I've tried several different types of TPU in the past and settled on Yousu TPU for the first time. It's comparable to other brands I've used and works well. Yousu ships their filament in a resealable package which is a nice bonus and they also offer a 0.4mm nozzle although it is an MK8 style nozzle and I am using E3D style nozzles at the moment. I use this with a Bowden tube printer and have found the best print results to be slow at around 36mm/s and at 220 degrees. So far I have designed and printed several protective legs. for outdoor hammock. The metal bars scratched the paint on the floor so I figured out how to protect them. I also designed and printed a replacement gas cap. TPU can be used in many different ways and I found Yousu TPU to work well and I am happy with it and also the price compared to others.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • High price
