For context: I'm a fairly experienced 3D printer. I think 80% of people's "problems" with PLA filament are simply user error. PLA is such an easy material to print that it rarely causes the most printing problems. I find this is very basic, mostly prototyping stuff for me so I don't have high expectations for PLA. But gosh, this thread was such a joke. CRATE. This is literally what it looked like when I opened it up before using it. As amazing as it is, this is just a budget PLA from Amazon. I'd be upset if it was a more expensive filament meant for the final product, but I can shake things off. Then a few prints, the roll looked like the second picture. I know that most filament assemblies are the result of user error, but the density and attention that the manufacturer puts into spool winding during production also makes a huge difference, and based on my first impressions of what it looked like out of the box, I will I blame the manufacturer and in this one too. And here is the third picture. This thread kept breaking off. A decent PLA filament should be able to bend. This material was so hard and brittle. It took me longer to get through this spool than a 3.5kg spool because I kept going back to my printer which resulted in filament leakage because the spool would break like in this picture leaving me with a tangle. a person who feels obligated to check everything I buy. Most things are just "/shrugs, it works" to me and not really worth going into too much detail about. But this thread was such a disappointment with indifferent expectations that I felt the need to write a review. I do not recommend. Even for a single rotten egg, it was a pretty horrible egg.
