Review on High-quality Polymaker 3D Printer PLA Filament 1 for Precise and Reliable Printing by Vincent Blitz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

All in all a really good PLA for $20

Okay, I want to say that I know my photography isn't the best, but let me explain. The top coil is Polyterra Pla, you can immediately see the difference in how matte it is. I have used Amazon, Overture, Hatch Box and Sunlu filament bases so far and can say they are superior to Matte Filament pla Overture. As the guy often prints out mechanical parts I can say the Pla has held up as it's a bit stronger than a typical Pla. I read some reviews that said people had printing issues. I can't compare my situation to everyone else, but the settings I found on my Prusa MK3 print at 215 work pretty well (this filament seems to work better at this temperature). I also had to raise the Z level a bit. . The jumper isn't as good as other PLAs and seems a little more prone to being pulled. But you can use "Avoid perimeter crossing" at 60% (it's on a Prusa slicer, don't know what it's called on Cura) and it just works. Haven't tried to print with supports yet. But my final verdict is that overall it's a good thread. I usually like to print with PETG, but matte colors are hard to miss. you look so good This really hides the lines of the layer. I also like to think that the roll is made from recycled cardboard. They include a notch on the line so you know how many grams you have left, as well as the weight of the spool so people can weigh it. They also plant 1 tree for every roll purchased. Personally, I no longer feel bad about throwing away my plastic spool holder. So at the end of the day, for $20 you can't go wrong, you're helping the environment, and you're also getting some cool matte colors.

Pros
  • Glossy Surface Tough PLA+
Cons
  • boring packaging
