Review on πŸ”˜ Monoprice 133883 PLA Plus Premium 3D Filament - Rich Brown - 1Kg Spool by Jonathan Wilson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

False wound

I'm admittedly new to the world of 3D printing, only started last week but of the filaments I've used this was by far the worst. 4 times when printing with it it started and refused to move into the printer. The first two times I luckily was there to unlock it, but the last two killed the nightly builds midway through. Gotta take care of the rest of this role that is out of order in my book. I don't know why (or how, to be honest) Monoprice wound this spool of filament in such a way that some of the filament is "under" later in the line, i.e. the part that just goes into the machine is under the pieces that will be submitted later. But their lack of quality control on this filament (if that's the issue, it's more of an issue with how the filaments are applied in the first place) has caused me to purchase filament for my printer elsewhere.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Some bugs
