Review on Vibrant Rainbow 🌈 3D Printer Filament by XVICO by Tim Wadman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very poor quality, misleading photo

I've printed several pieces using this thread over the past two weeks. The first thing you need to know is that multicolored photos are very deceptive. I printed a large vase and the color didn't change. I thought it might just be the outer layer on the spool so I printed a different one but got the same result. The color sections are so long that you shouldn't expect to see more than two colors on a medium sized print, and only if you accidentally catch it preparing for the transition. The second problem is that after two weeks it turned out to be extremely brittle. It broke during normal printing in my Bowden tube. I pulled it out and inspected it, and the unused line on the spool snaps at the slightest bend (just a few degrees). It has not been stored in extreme conditions, in a normal room with a temperature of 70 degrees, low humidity, without sunlight. It was only taken out of the factory packaging for two weeks. I threw away the remaining 3/4 of the roll, it's useless.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Will write later
