Review on πŸ”΄ Red Nylon 6 3D Printer Filament by KODAK by Nathaniel Collins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not at all what I expected

According to the ad, I decided to buy this yarn because of "premium yarn with lowest moisture content" and a well known brand. This was my first time using Kodak filament. The filament lay well out of the box, but the print was very brittle. I thought maybe it wasn't as dry as advertised so I dried it 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
  • PREMIUM: High-quality nylon 6 (PA6) polyamide filament for technical applications.
Cons
  • Not sure
