Generally not bad but they sent the wrong product.

I prefer less translucent materials because they give a smoother print. Less tendency to get stuck/leaving a bunch of cobwebs everywhere. This does not refer to the Bu-Mat but to the thread in general. Natural PLA prints like oil but when you start adding these dyes it changes the properties of the material and then you get more issues with bonding, tension, poor surface finish etc. This red material goes through my hot end pretty much like the same naturally. PLA is good. What's bad: I ordered

Pros
  • Easy to use and handles most prints well
Cons

Powered by Makerbot Replicator 2 Very good

The spool is a different size than the one that came with the replicator. You can purchase another spool holder. I printed a copy from the link below and it worked very well: [.] It produces models that are comparable in quality to models made with Makerbot filament at half the price. The manufacturer suggests a temperature below the recommended ones. for the Makerbot thread. I've found that the model sticks to the print surface if I don't change the settings (still at 230C). When I lower them…

Pros
  • Filament diameter: 1.75mm
Cons
  • not reliable

The transparency is very good and there were no knots in the .

I have not found this filament to be as brittle as some other clear filaments unless it cools. The transparency is very good and so far there have been no knots during unwinding. Here is more information about the transparent thread and the problem of brittleness. Only the last few inches of the spool become brittle and it's easiest to unload the filament and just snap off the brittle part. White PLA does this too and is easy enough to bypass. But I found a bigger problem when I reordered clear

Pros
  • Custom Melting Point 190 to 220°C
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging
