Review on HATCHBOX 1.75 Mm Mint PLA 3D Printer Filament, Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.03Mm, 1 Kg Spool by Michael Hemmig

Dial in your filament and send it

I bought this to print a mondoshawan figure (from the fifth element). I found it very easy to work with. It handles overhangs fairly well, minimal stringing, and you can get a different shine depending on how hot you print it. I've run through half the spool and have not encountered any clogs. I run all my prints through a temp tower test before printing. If I'm finding challenges with overhangs or stringing I will run retraction tower tests and overhang tests but neither were a problem for this filament and my default pla settings. My printer liked 100% fan, 210 hotend temp, 60 bed temp & open enclosure (printing with a creality cr-200b that is stock aside from a capricorn tube & single 5015 blower fan). Anything from 200-220c worked well enough but 210 was the sweet spot for me. I enjoyed working with it so much I ordered the same filament in gold to try next.

Pros
  • Smooth surface finish for high-quality prints
Cons
  • May cause clogs if used with incompatible extruders
