Review on ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ HATCHBOX 3D Printing Filament: High-Precision Additive Manufacturing Products for Dimensionally Accurate Prints by Macaiah Arreola

Not worth the hassle

Only buy this filament if you really need something that looks like a rock. I managed to get a successful print and to be honest it looked great. It has the same properties as PLA but is very brittle. Just a few days after removing it from the vacuum bag, my extruder motor refused to push the filament through, even when the filament was at least slightly taut. The gears were grinding the filament and would no longer be pushed through. When the filament reached the nozzle, then with some sharp movements, the filament would break and cause problems for the whole print. I left a roll of regular PLA for a few months and it printed just as well as before, but whatever they've done with that particular filament makes it a nightmare to print with, so I'm throwing it away. There is 0.99 kg left on the roll.
