ELEGOO PLA Filament 1.75mm Black 2KG, 3D Printer Filament Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02mm, 2 Pack 1kg Cardboard Spool(2.2lbs) 3D Printing Filament Fits for Most FDM 3D Printers

Beautifully smooth, even, detailed prints with a nice matte finish!
I bought a spool of ELEGOO beige color for a project. It started off with a couple MAJOR issues with bed adhesion: after small successful tests, I ran the large main job. over halfway through, parts detached from the bed mid-print and collided with other parts, knocking them loose and ending up with a huge spaghetti tangle. I lost a distressingly large amount of filament on that failure – I didn’t weigh it, but I estimate nearly half the spool. I’m contacting their support line in hopes they’ll help replace the lost material somehow, since their suggested bed temp range didn’t work at all. (I’ll update with how their service is.)I did some trial-and-error adjusting on the suggested bed temps, and lost some more material in the process. I’ll have to look back and see what temps I ended up with, and edit this review to add them in case it helps anyone else.After the temperature adjustments, the project printed impressively well. Smooth matte finish, minuscule layer lines, and a nice beige color tone. After the unfortunate waste from the first failures and the finished main project, I decided to print another small detailed project with the leftover filament.I purchased an .stl model of the gargoyle candelabras in Disney’s Haunted Mansion “stretching room”. The last two pics are the originals in Walt Disney World, for reference. (The 3D model is by SERGIMEN3DART on cults3d.)I fired off this smal-scale version before committing to a full-size print. The model is split into 7 parts. I printed them at .10 layer height on my Prusa MINI+. They came out waaaay better than I expected… especially at such a small size! It’s about 160mm wide, total.I quickly removed the support material and dry-fit the parts together. No other post-processing has been done. With a couple birthday candles clutched in his fists and an appropriate perch, he’s ready for some pre-paint review pics. The details are sharp and clean, and the layer lines are almost invisible to the naked eye. I’ve still got to do some light cleanup, then prime, paint, and weather him up. He’ll be a perfect lil watch guard, sitting on the shelf above my desk to keep an eye on things and ward off bad vibes and evil spirits. ;)I’ll definitely be buying more of this filament. Just gotta decide which color I could use next….

Great Filament – Go SLOW!
Good filament – prints well and was great for printing our detailed set of D&D minis. We used a 0.2mm nozzle on our K2 Plus. One word to the wise though – slow it down! We got much better results printing at half speed compared to the Creality Print defaults. At full speed, layer to layer adhesion was pretty poor and we had models coming apart during print. Slowing it down eliminated that. Now that we have our print settings dialed in pretty well, this filament makes awesome detailed prints.

UPDATE: MOISTURE in one of the two rolls
UPDATED REVIEW:TLDR:1. BUY ELEGOO FILAMENT. Great prices, great filament, great quality… AFTER DRYING2. GET A FILAMENT DRYER. Even if filament comes dry, it WILL absorb moisture. EVEN PLA!3. LEARN BRIMS/MOUSE EARS for anything that is skinny and tallThe Elegoo red PLA worked beautifully from day 1, but the blue wasted SO many hours of my time. Stringing like mozzarella, and non-adhesion/falling off mid-print. I dried the blue filament thoroughly (24 hr total), and it works beautifully now. ELEGOO is a GREAT VALUE if you have a filament dryer!!! I started the return process, but I’m keeping it, and I will definitely buy again. Elegoo reached out and offered a full refund, but I declined. On second thought, I deserve pain & suffering compensation, I’m going to ask for that refund. LOLLONG VERSION:3D printing is a mysterious blend of science and art. When it works, everything has to be JUST so. When it fails, it could be almost anything, and it’s not always just one thing that’s wrong.My first print was a pre supported Pokemon Charizard that failed 4-5 times in a row, super stringy and supports coming loose early in the print. So I tried printing it using Bambu Lab PLA, and that failed too. Then I knew it wasn’t (just) the Elegoo blue PLA. So I washed the Bambu Lab textured PEI plate w/ Dawn, used glue stick, still failed. Then I looked at the long skinny supports w/ tiny brims, and thought “that’s not a great idea.” I got the same model w/o supports and added tree style slim supports with wider brims, and it printed beautifully w/ Bambu Lab PLA. BUT it still failed w/ Elegoo blue (see mangled Charizard photo).At that point I was so frustrated I left a 1 star review and started the return process with Amazon. I didn’t think it was moisture since I didn’t see bubbling or hear hissing (but the Bambu Lab fans are LOUD), plus other reviewers said drying only improved prints a little. But I figured, I need a filament dryer anyway, why not try drying it?I used the Sovol 2-spool dryer at 50 °C for 6 hr x 4 sessions w/ just this blue roll in it. Twice when the dryer cooled I had to remove a LOT of condensation. The next two sessions produced no visible condensation, ending at 50 °C at 30% humidity (We’re at 65% relative humidity in San Diego currently).ZERO print failures since drying the filament. I’ve printed the same Charizard, flawless, almost no stringing. I printed a tiny Blue from Netflix’s Sea Beast, micro-mini cars that are part of surprise egg sets from Thingiverse. Look at all of that crisp clean detail! (I like to print at 0.08-0.12 mm layer heights for miniatures and variable layer heights for larger models.)The printing is flawless. Removing supports and brims? NOT flawless (freaking PITA), but not Elegoo’s fault LOL. I will definitely buy Elegoo again, it’s a great bargain. But dry it before using!PREVIOUS REVIEW:I was super excited to discover this 4.5-star PLA filament for such a reasonable price! But try as I might, this filament will not adhere to the print bed, nor will it stick to other layers of itself. There is no evidence of moisture, as there is no audible hissing or popping, no visible bubbling or steaming. It does not string much at all, and where it did adhere, it prints just fine and smooth. See attached photo that shows mangled mouth/jaw, wings, right arm; what isn’t showing is that half the supports initially adhered, but later came off the platform.I tried everything:- textured PEI print plate- washed print plate with mild detergent and water- glue stick on print plate- hotend fan on- 220 °C hotend- 65 °C print bedI’m printing this on an almost new Bambu Lab P1P, a very capable, reliable machine that has produced flawless prints using filaments from Bambu Lab, Overture, and TEQstone using a 0.4 mm nozzle and layer heights of 0.08 to 0.2 mm.I am returning these and going to get more expensive PLA filament. My free time is worth more than the savings!

Print mooi ik heb het gebruikt om keer wanden stelton platen en beton banden schaal 1 op 32 te printenHet enige nadeel is de prijs

Me gustó mucho. Excelente para mi impresora 3d creality k1 máx. Soporto muy bien las altas velocidades de 250mm/s. Imprimí ese dinosaurio flexible y quedo muy bien. Sin errores
