Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Gizmo Dorks 1.75mm Filament Printers by Jason Franco

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The spool is poorly made and the colors are not bright or saturated enough

My biggest criticism of the design of this spool. You don't see it in the photos, but the spool is held together by two pieces of plastic that come together in a crease instead of lying flat; see the photos I took for a better overview). This will cause the bobbin to bounce back and forth on the bobbin holder, causing it to quickly unravel. In addition, the thread is wound very tightly due to the small inner radius and becomes more and more brittle towards the middle. The Gizmodork thread color isn't as light as other threads I've used; they tend to be softer/lighter than expected; "red" has become more orange-red. All in all, if you're looking for a small amount of filament and don't care about things like bold colors or ease of use, this sampler set will do the trick. However, I would recommend other companies like AIO Robotics or Hatchbox if you want better quality.

Pros
  • The perfect complement to color samples for your 3D printer or 3D pen. Each spool contains 200g and contains blue, green, orange and red colors
Cons
  • vanishing
