Waste of Money!: Additive Manufacturing Products

I bought this because it had a lot of good reviews. I don't know if I had a bad batch or what, but this PLA ultimately sucks. When trying to open the spool to insert it into our printer's extruder, a good 8 inches came loose. There was a bear to get into our printer. The first few fingerprints flew off and the spaghetti was on us. I thought it was because of the file used. Played around with tempo and files. The prints turned out beautifully. The husband started the Sword of Omens project. The printer jammed within the first 10 minutes - mind you, this is AFTER running a few successful PLA prints from the printer and then from it. I cleaned it, reassembled it and suddenly the impressions didn't hold anymore. Went back to check but found spaghetti all over the print bed and a bit pushed the base of the print aside. The very first lines (the base of the raft) refused to stick to the rest of the print (almost like guitar strings). Couldn't find any mention of this exact issue. Did some test prints to play around with table temp and nozzle temp. I had to increase the nozzle temperature to *240!* C before it printed properly again. Up to 10 degrees above the specified maximum temperature. We will send it back for a refund.
