Review on 📐 PRILINE TPU 1KG Filament: Ensuring Unparalleled Dimensional Accuracy by Juan Axum

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too much moisture in 3D printing consumables

The filament was well packed in a vacuum bag which also contained a bag of desiccant. I was expecting to be able to pop it onto the spool holder and get decent prints right away. Unfortunately it isn't. The photos accompanying this review are of my first 3 prints using this thread. In the first, the two cubes on the left are the original flow calibration prints; the far left is measured as 15% extruded, and the one in the middle has been "calibrated" accordingly. However, the surface texture was terrible as you can see in the picture. The next morning I threw the coil into the dehydrator and left it there for a few hours. The die on the far right is the result. Nice and smooth and now obviously 15% under-extruded! The second shot is another shot of the rightmost cube in the correct focus. TPU is very hygroscopic but I didn't expect the factory vacuum pack to be so wet. Make sure you dry this thread before using it!

Pros
