Review on 📸 KODAK Green NYLON 6 3D Printer Filament by Benjamin Robinson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not at all what I expected

As advertised, "premium yarn with the lowest moisture” along with a well known brand is the reason I decided to purchase this yarn. This was my first time using Kodak filament. The filament lay well out of the box, but the print was very brittle. I thought it might not be as dry as advertised so I dried the thread for 6 hours. The prints were still very brittle and not very smooth. I tried different tempi because I thought they would work best with settings other than those listed. I've even followed instructions from others who claimed they had perfect casts, but to no avail. All prints were brittle. I've used my 3D printer a lot over the past year and am pretty good at setting it up to produce great prints. The filament isn't very pleasant to use as the spool is filled to the brim and difficult to keep on the spool, but that wasn't a huge issue when the prints were at least decent.

Pros
  • EXTRA-DRY: Vacuum zip bag with silica gel to protect the yarn from moisture and dust.
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
