Review on πŸ”ƒ Versatile Filament Refills for Diverse Printing Needs by Uriel Arocha

Revainrating 1 out of 5

0% success after more than a dozen attempts

tl;dr - After more than a dozen attempts to print this PLA+ I had 0% success. Stay away. Since this thread is relatively cheap and has a decent rating, I decided to give it a try. God it was a mistake. I have an all metal Micro Swiss hotend in my printer. I have used filaments from 3D Solutech (PLA) and more recently Duramic 3D (PLA and PLA+) with great success. In fact, the last three coils I emptied were from these two brands with no issues. Apparently Sunlu decided to reverse this trend. I have attempted AT LEAST 12 times a particular part at temperatures between 190Β° and 240Β°C (recommended range is 190Β°-230Β°C), at speeds between 30mm/s and 60mm/s, with and without retraction, to print. hoping to find the optimal combination of these three parameters that would give me the desired printing success. This thread glued my hot end together and jammed the printer in various places**ALL. SINGLE. TIME.** No exception. The first layer always lays out nicely, but after that it was a dice game when the printer got stuck. but always jammed. This thread got me 0% success. In the end I had enough, I wound up a roll of Duramic 3D PLA and printed the part at 225Β°C and 60 mm/sec without any problems. I didn't even look for a replacement for this Sunlu PLA+. I get a refund and will never buy Sunlu again. Keep in mind.
