Type of review

I have sent an email to the seller letting them know all the issues with this new batch of Hatchbox PA Nylon filament! Even the advertising pictures on Best Buy still show print temp at 200-220c and all of my previous rolls were the same and printed perfectly at that temp! Now the print temp is 240-250c and it still won’t even extrude with V6 all Metal HotEnd! Layer adhesion is zero now when it was perfect! All other types of filament still print perfectly but this batch of Hatchbox PA Nylon…

Pros
  • Definitely going to stick with this product. Good prints and quality
Cons
  • Expensive compared to other 3D printer filaments in the market

It looks great, can't wait to use

Package came vacuum sealed to keep clean and dry. I chose this filament after reading somewhere hatchbox has high quality filament. I haven't yet printed with it, but i can't wait to. I have specific projects i want to use them for but my computer's ram is out on rma. When i get the ram back i will be sure to upload photos!

Pros
  • Best thing to ever happen to me I'm in love
Cons
  • Requires more frequent maintenance of your printer, due to the nature of the material

Hatchbox doesn't even know what to do with this.

The spool I got says 240-250C, the picture of the spool on their site says 200-220C, but their description says 180-210C. No big deal, just anywhere between 180-250C.It doesn't like to stick, TO ANYTHING. Not glue, tape, the bed, or even itself!Finally got 1 good looking print, keyword being "looking". Peeled right off the bed, no problem, it immediately snaps between layers.This stuff pops and bubbles (Hatchbox even says this means a bad spool), it has little flexibility, and is SOOOO…

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • May require more post-processing than other filament materials, such as sanding or painting, to achieve a finished look

I got it to do what I needed, but this is an odd filament.

Instructions are all over the place, depending on where you look you can get anywhere from 180-230 as acceptable printing temps.Personally I have now settled for 225 overall, but will dial it down quite a lot if I have a print with bridging where layer adhesion is less necessary.Its quite an oozy filament, bridges poorly, and it shrinks quite a lot.I'm having to do large brims on most of my prints, with a high temp heat bed and very low or no fan.If you want to print nylon, or need a semi-flex…

Pros
  • 1 KG (approximately 2. 20 lbs.) Spool
Cons
  • Not suitable for outdoor use, as it can degrade quickly when exposed to harsh UV rays

I love hatchbox good for me

Their filament is my absolute go-to. If I want something really cheap there are brands out there that print well enough but hatchbox always seems to come out slightly better. This was the first brand I ever tried with my first printer, and I am now on printer number 2, and dismantled printer 1. Still using filament brand 1 though.

Pros
  • Consistent product. Runs at a lower temperature than other nylons.
Cons
  • Not ideal for intricate or small prints due to its resistance to bending and flexing

Using an Anet A8 with E3d Titan Aero this filament is just a pleasure to work with. At a .1 layer height I have printed a few structural components and gears and have experienced no significant warping with a very beautiful part. I did build a full dry box before opening the Nylon and using it so it has had nearly no interaction with humidity.Edit: Came to downgrade my review, This filament is nice, but I am seriously confused as to of if it's actually nylon? I say this because AS stated I…

Pros
  • Good product.
Cons
  • Has a tendency to clog or jam, causing printing delays or defects

Too pricey for what it is/does

Well, was hoping for something better than ABS, but this isn't it. So far I've printed at 240 & 270C and still the bond line will break apart with minimal force, not even close to ABS strong. Granted at 270 it was better, but nothing like nylon would react to mechanical stress. Between filament strand bond line was weaker as it got taller. Running tension along the length of the filament was much stronger as expected. Who knows what the magic number is for this stuff. I suppose if they sent me…

Pros
  • Great strong Filament! Would recommend for price!
Cons
  • Can develop a strong odor during use, which can be unpleasant to some individuals

Flexible but not high temp

If you're looking for something that is tough, flexible and prints easily where high temp resistance is not a requirement I find that this prints much easier that other options like TPU on my Prusa MK3. It goes down very easily, with good speed, but watch temps as bridging will sag or fail unless you tune it in well. I found it particularly useful for head straps for Covid 19 mask variants that used printed headbands due to difficulties locating elastic. I've had this for over a year and…

Pros
  • It works really well for me with my Ender 3. No warping with heat plate at 100C and brim.
Cons
  • Tricky to print with, as it requires higher printing temperature and nozzle size than most other filament materials

No issues so far for my opinion

Bought this filament as I wanted to print some more durable items on my Qidi X-One2. The X-One has a max print temp of 250c so I'm limited on the materials I can print. So far so good, I've done one test print and am currently printing some parts I needed. I originally planned to print some gears but this nylon feels a little soft/flexible. It is also pretty easy to cut with a razor blade. Fortunately, I have some other parts that need the fixability. No warping or adhesion issues at all but…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Hard to work with when printing overhangs or bridging, requiring additional support structures
