1Kg Spool of Monoprice Crystal Clear ABS 3D Printer Filament Review

I love this filament and it's less than $9/kg. I liked it so much that I immediately ordered 2 more. I use this in both my Robo and Prusa. I printed this ABS at 142°C and 82°C using a glue stick on a glass plate and tape over an aluminum plate. Both methods work on both printers. I have other Deltas too, but I didn't try them on there, mainly because I didn't want to change spools. I have printed many parts for my 3D printers and so far this ABS plastic is very strong and works great for me…

ABS is a difficult material to print on. It requires a much higher temperature than PLA and is less prone to warping. It has good durability and works well in warm environments where PLA may not work. So I have no complaints about the properties of PLA. The actual color of the thread is much lighter than I expected. Light purple, I wouldn't even call it ultraviolet. I know that pictures on the web do not exactly match the actual item, but the pictures show a much darker color in my opinion…

This filament is cheap and inexpensive to manufacture. I printed a few rolls - both were very tangled - and kept jamming due to roll tangles so bad they wouldn't feed. After you used a third of the roll, the tangles were less, but then crumbly spots started. Each spool had spots so dry and crumbly that the filament broke trying to feed it. You can just crumble it a foot or two, it breaks into pieces with a light squeeze, it doesn't look like ordinary filament - and then the filament returns to…
