Review on 🎨 Enhanced Marble PLA Filament 1 by Justin Torres

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good for the price of 3D printing consumables

So I bought a roll of PLA+ (white) because it cost $17 and had a diameter tolerance of +/- 0.02mm, making it a Mid-range line brings branded items. Why not, right? So far it's not that bad. But not in the way I expected. First, the advertised WAAA extrusion temperature is off. It says 210-235C so I started with 215 because that's how my other PLA+ coils on my machine like it. I had drips, oozing, tension from hell etc. So I got back to 200. Tension still there but much better. I'm typing at 195 right now and so far it's looking GREAT. I'm wondering what is so special about my coil that the temperature has dropped well beyond the specified range. Secondly, the stated bed temperature is nonsense. 70 Β°C for PLA+? Well, that's what it said on the box, so I gave it a try. I have excellent adhesion to my glass bed, but these prints will absolutely not come off after cooling without frustrating violence. I'll try to tweak this a bit and see what happens. Finally, and what you probably REALLY want to know, is print quality and durability. To be honest it's not that bad. I would compare it to my eSun PLA+. Lots of extra hardness, but unfortunately it's very brittle in places where it matters (like arms and legs in miniatures). I prefer PLA+ with a bit more elasticity, but I think this material works well for less delicate items. In general, the experiment was a success. The price was great and while this stuff will never be my favorite, I have a feeling I'll use a roll - it doesn't deserve to go in the bin or anything.

Pros
  • Wide Compatibility
Cons
  • High Price
