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

I use this stuff to print some of the products I sell on Etsy because it prints really nicely, is consistent, and is reasonably priced. The color is the best orange I was able to find, and is nice and consistent. Ome thing to note is that it's a little bit softer than most PLA, almost more like some PLA+'s but for my use case that's a bonus as it's less brittle. I recommend this stuff.

I've been printing a lot lately (up to 8kg per week)I used to be very agnostic about filament, but Elegoo has earned my loyalty. The colors are spot on, print bed adhesion is hassle free, layer adhesion is great, and prints are accurate with excellent detail.I have zero issues with warping, brittle filament or smell without the need to run it through the dryer. It even works in high speed applications such as my Qidi Plus4.Elegoo has earned brand loyalty with this filament.

First off—ELEGOO knows what they’re doing. They’ve already earned a solid name in resin printing, and now their PLA filament brings that same reliability to FDM. This 4-pack is a great value, with four 2.2lb (1kg) spools in clean, classic colors—Black, White, Gray, and Clear. Perfect for anyone who wants dependable, no-fuss PLA that just works across a wide range of printers.I ran each color through a modified Ender 3, a Sovol SV06, and a Prusa Mini, and the results were consistently solid. Minimal stringing, strong layer adhesion, and very tight dimensional tolerance—+/- 0.02mm held up in every caliper check I ran.

Good quality filament for cheap, whats there to not like?Printed great on my FLsun SR, no complaints with print quality or color consistency, though I only got black and white spools.I always prefer cardboard spools, they feel like less of a waste, but if you have an AMS or any of its clones, it may cause you issues if its warped or damaged in some way, though you can always print your own spools and rewind it.

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!
