OVERTURE PLA Filament 1.75mm PLA 3D Printer Filament, 1kg Cardboard Spool (2.2lbs), Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02mm, Fit Most FDM Printer (White 1-Pack)

Honestly some of the nicest printing pla I've ever used. I went through the entire roll, from start to finish in 1 large print and at the end I had 3ft left on the roll. And not a single problem! no clogs, no gaps in my print, not even a disfiguring in my tree supports. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone using a flashforge adventurer 5m printer. It's some of the smoothest printing PLA out there, it even did better than my creality or FF pla.

UPDATE: Amazon does not let me do a separate review for the black PLA, so I am updating this one. I like the black PLA a lot. The surface finish can be a smooth matte black at lower temperatures or glossy at higher. It does have a tendency to warp on smooth steel along with textured PEI, I have to use gluestick and turn the print fan down. But that totally depends on your print surface and other factors, I cannot say for sure if that is a universal issue with Overture Black PLA. Overall I would give the black PLA a 4.5 out of 5 and the white PLA a 4 out of 5. It is some of the better PLA I've used. --- Older review for the white PLA --- These spools claim a consistent diameter of 1.75 give or take 0.05. Most spools I buy claim the same however I have not once actually /seen/ this amount of variance when measuring the diameter. Most spools seem to measure lows and highs of 1.73 - 1.76. Within a one foot stretch of this filament I can see 1.70 to 1.8mm depending on where I measure. That is within the product's described tolerance so I cannot fault it for that. But I cannot wonder if it is the cause of the slight variance in printed layers that is visible when under direct light. Printed 210/72 Prusa MK3S with full Bear Upgrade, textured PEI sheet. Pictures are after some basic extrusion multiplier adjustment and LA calibration @ .2mm layer height. Like any filament purchase there are far too many variables to judge quality off of the finished print. Not to mention differences in color and batch. I have had small difficulties with adhesion but again that could just be me. I have not yet tried the black roll that I ordered. So to summarize, if you see it and it's cheap and you aren't nutty about quality or consistency, it's fine. However it is not my favorite. It is OK and gets the job done.

Excellent quality filament. Produces very nice prints on my Bambu.

Worked well in my Bambu Lab A1, with some slight tweaks. I found that lowering the nozzle temp to 210, and keeping the heatbed on 65 or 70 let this print perfectly. If using the stock Overture settings on the A1 I had some adhesion issues, and would get some stringing on larger flat surfaces, but the settings I mentioned above cleared that right up. Very affordable filament and looks great when printed.

Updated 06 Mar 2022 - After watching a few videos on YouTube regarding the wind and binding problems, I have learned what causes this. It's almost always 100% user error. I may have inadvertently twisted the filament while loading it into my printer. To prevent this, make sure you hold onto the end of the filament if you cut it or as you remove it from the storage notch. This will prevent the binding. I'm still going to give it 4 stars because it has broken near the end of the spool before. I have since added a filiment guide and ball bearing supported guide in front of my broken filiment detector to hopefully prevent this. For the most part, the filament is very good. My prints have been top notch The problem is the quality of the wind on the spool. I've had the same filament on the old plastic spools, and there was much less binding (see photo). I was printing a 2 day print that failed in the middle of the night due to the filament all bound up. I woke up to the familiar sound of the extruder knocking as it was trying to pull on the spool to feed the print head. 13 hours of printing wasted. I has sense added two filament guides, but that still can cure binding on a poorly wound spool. I hope Overture addresses this issue, as I do love their product, just not the way it's wound on their spools.

I switched from ABS to PLA, and this is my first time trying PLA. I love the printing quality and I'm getting less failed prints (don't know if it's because of the brand or because it's PLA). But the filament is cut in some places. I try to print something, and i come back to find the printer not printing because the filament was cut off. It's not a huge big problem, but it is getting on my way. I will order again because I've never had this problem with their ABS filament, I hope the second one won't be like this, and this was just a faulty one. Update: I haven't had any more cuts so fat, and I have never had a failed print. Not a single one. I am so satisfied with this product :)

I have used many different brands of PLA and my usual "go-to" was no longer Prime so I thought I'd give this a shot. Pros: Prints fantastic, layer adhesion is excellent, build plate adhesion is...well see below, filament appears to be very uniform in size. Free build plate surface (has a con, see below) Free ruler Cons: I took the included build plate surface, stuck it to my borosilicate glass bed that I have been printing on for over 4 years using glue sticks. Very nice surface! Printed a lithophane lamp shade and proceeded to have to destroy my glass to get it unstuck. I tried every trick in the book, heating the bed to 110c, using a Gizmodorks removal tool, putting the whole thing in a deep freeze for 10 hours and nothing. In the end the glass finally gave up the battle, broke and piece by very tiny little piece I was able to pick away the glass and the building surface. So, in the end, I would highly recommend this filament however if you are going to use the included building surface, make some small test prints and adjust your bed adhesion layer till you find the happy medium between adhesion and removal. For my printer and settings, I start with 210c hot end and 70c bed for first layer then drop to 200c and 60c the rest of the print with no cooling. Very happy with the results!

Very good filament. Prints fast and with good quality. Does not string and also arrived fully dried (most brands don't do an amazing job at that).

Really nice filaments.Easy to use results are very good.Buy them on sale it usually goes down to by about $17 a roll.Do not buy the clear one though its garbage. So brittle.

Usually use eSun but this was on sale really cheap and I needed white for a 20mm diameter Death Star someone wanted printed out. Still playing with settings, had a few issues with the support tree layers looking "gappy", but at around 215 degrees and bed at 55, it printed quite well with just a few bed-sticking issues. Used a glue stick and set first layer speed to 50% and with brims, not bad. Suspect most issues are my inexperience. One issue is the spool. 2 ridges and a gap in the centre... I have a printed spool holder with bearings for the regular spools and this one kept falling off the bearings. Will need to print a removeable sleeve for it because had to reinstall the original holder to make it work. Not a fault of the filament at all, they're nice environmentally friendly spindles, but if like me your spool holder is anything but smooth/solid, you may have issues. Will buy again for sure.

Using right after using Bambu filament and the difference is very noticeable. We have had multiple printing issues and bad prints and waste. Does not do fine details well it seems. Done lots of trouble shooting and it’s come down to a filament issue! Won’t purchase again.

Compared to other brands, meh, seems to gum up my printer and requires reloading every print. Also often leaves hair and other globs on many prints.
