Review on πŸ”§ HATCHBOX 3D Filament: Enhanced Dimensional Accuracy, Premium Additive Manufacturing Products in 3D Printing Supplies by Troy Gerhardt

Do not buy! - Additive Manufacturing Products

I just bought a Creality CR-10 after Christmas. I used the spool of white thread that came with the machine to dial in everything I needed and it had several successful prints. When it finally ran out I wound up this roll which I bought at the same time as my 3D printer and so far I haven't had any successful prints. The extrusion speed on my machine seems to be too low, I played with the extrusion temperature settings to see if that would help, it didn't help, I experimented with the print speed settings to see if it helped but it did did not help. Check out the picture I've attached to this review and see for yourself. The same part prints, white using the standard filament that comes with the printer and black is the filament from the hatch box. The rod thread made incredibly strong connections, and the flat portion doesn't flex at all. The threads of the hatch box simply break apart with any force and the flat part bends very easily. I suggest you look elsewhere for the thread. Print quality and adhesion are miserable.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Bulky
