Review on Ender PLA Filament 1: Premium 3D Printing Supplies for Additive Manufacturing by Julian Banks

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good yarn, insanely high price.

Genuine Creality brand PLA, red, gives excellent results and requires no adjustment to my standard PLA print settings. The red color does not match the product photos but has a pale red tint. The filament arrived vacuum packed with a Mondo sized pebble bag. Excellent results are achieved without great effort. The coil was wound carefully, the thread did not burst. No problem loading. SETTINGS: * Printer: Ender 5 Pro. * Nozzle temperature: 200°C * Table temperature: 50°C * Table material: standard countertop * Speed: 50mm/s * Nozzle: 0.4mm * Layer: 0.2mm * Thread used for the model: 11, 12g/ 3.73 meters. COLOUR: Off-red, better described as "pale brick". I personally like the color very much. It's quite unique compared to most red threads I've used/seen. The color is rich and vibrant, despite the lighter shade of red. The finish is semi-matte. Brilliant but not very. RESULTS: So far, very good print quality has been achieved without having to adjust or deviate from my default PLA print settings. Adhesion to the bed was excellent and the layers are very clear and clean. The results are above average. FINAL VERDICT: I like the pale red color and how easy it is to work with. But the price bites, so I'm deducting a star. But the thread itself is well above average.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
