GIANTARMFilament PLA 1.75mm Silk Purple, 3D Printer PLA Filament 1kg Spool

I was looking for a standard filament that would not break the bank like some named brands of filamentso I thought I’d give this a go. It printed just as good as any I’ve tried before. There was no blocking/ clogging and no air pockets, the print came out very smooth and picked up or the details. I will definitely buy some more when I need some

The filament printed perfect out from the box, I set the temperature to 200 deg for the hotend and 60 deg for the bed and it worked great, can’t complain and good price, also another thing I like is that they supplied a ziplock bag so you can reseal it when you finish, I wish all manufacturers did that! So if you’re looking for no nonsense cheap pla, then this is the one.

Excellent, will defo buy again

Super fast delivery of this filament, Item arrived very well packaged and upon opening I noticed that it even includes a re sealable bag for storage after use. (nice little addition) although I may not use it as I store all my filaments in air tight storage containers.I decided to go all in and opted straight away for a full print of an articulated model using previously used settings for other filaments to see what the results where. I didn't bother with any temp test towers, I just wanted to see what it does straight out of the package.I saved a random model onto the SD card with the temps set at 200 for the Hotend and 55 for the Bed. I put the SD card into my Ender 5 Pro and started the print, albeit a little late at 9pm, I checked on the print and took a photo approx. 2 hours into it and all was looking good. I felt confident with the print at this point so decided to leave it running over night and woke up in the morning to a shiny new articulated shark to add to my ever growing collection of random models.The overall finish was really good, quite smooth and clean with no stringing present at all and no abnormalities or curling from the heated bed.The colour of the filament (Model) in natural light really is fantastic, I like the sheen to this filament and am sure it will be used more and more by me and I will definitely be purchasing this product again in the very near future.All in all a great product that works really well for what I did using the above settings.Highly recommended.

Turned out smooth, matt and looking sharp, printed perfect at 200 and 60 and stuck to the bed as I needed it to

Best pla filament I have used.

Product arrived well packaged and sealed with the normal silica gel packet inside.Comes with a grip seal bag to store the reel in should you not use the product for some time after opening. I don't normally have issues with that but it was a nice touch to have the bag supplied in case I required it.Inspection of the windings onto the reel looked excellent, so no worries about any tangling causing issues during the prints. I have purchased PETG from this company previously and that came perfectly wound too so good to know you can trust the filament to flow freely from the spool.Played around with temps, the PLA seemed to give the best results around 190 degrees, no sign of any excessive stringing and good clean.Did some normal speed purging and the material flowed well, nice and even purging with no spitting or other issues.First print was the Olaf model.Printed at default speed on Geeetech A20, first layer adhesion was perfect on the Geeetech standard mylar sheet that comes with the printer. The purge line peeled off cleanly once cooled.The model was printed with 10% infill, the external finish was very impressive, I did part way through increase speeds by 25% and no issues were noted regarding the filament feeding through the nozzle. I have had some PLA that didn't work well at higher speeds, this seemed to cope without problems.Second print was the penguin, no infill, three outer layers, three layers top and bottom, on the same A20 printer. A few lines in the lower part of the body, but that was down to the printer itself and not the filament, the filament performed perfectly well on this print also. A very nice smooth and tactile finish on both models.Finally I decided to test it further by printing a lithophane of the Astronaut on the moon.I have had some PLA that did not print this so well, partial lines missing etc.. As you can see from the photograph it gave a great result.I have previously purchased PLA from other companies, at higher prices than this. This has performed perfectly so far, so will be my filament of choice for the future.
