Works great for basic printing
I'm a low-tech 3d printing novice. I have a Lotmaxx Shark open-air printer. This filament works very well with my printer. I mostly use it to print jigs and clamps for woodworking and CNC work. The pieces are tough and do what I need them to do very well. My daughter likes old tech and wanted a cassette tape case for Christmas. I designed the racks for cassette tapes to go in a wooden cabinet, and used this filament to print them. They came out really nice...no warping, very square, and nice smooth lines. I'm very happy with the ease of use and cost of this filament. My printer lives in my basement in Missouri, so humidity is a fact of life. I would probably benefit from keeping this filament in a sealed bag when not in use, but to be honest I've left it on the printer for months at a time and it just keeps working perfectly. The seller packages the filament very well and ships promptly. Five stars!

Excellent prints and no issues with two different printers.
Recommend this filament and no issues printing with A1 Mini with AMS and Neptune 4 Plus using Bambu and Orca slicers. Very nice results.

Excellent Material
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 rulerCons: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!

Great filament
Best filament for the price. Work great in my Prusa mk3s. I never have any clogging or extrusion issues. No stringing issues.

Great prints, some popping
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.

It's Amazing
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 :)
