3idea PLA Filament (Yellow)

Good quality

With any other brand filament i had no problems until i put this filament in. Popping sounds from the extrusion(could be humid filament), uneven thickness, adhesion problems. At first i Thought it was my printer and spent 3 days trying to fine tune my printer and slicer settings until i realized this is the only roll I had of this brand. As soon as i switched to my regular quality filament all my issues were gone and everything was back to normal and perfect. I am never buying this brand of filament again. To anyone reading this, you've been warned.

I’ve use many PLA filaments but this was the worst by far. It didn’t print properly and the results were shocking. My vice is stick to the brands you know and trust.

First of all this is not Metalic copper and the quality seemed extremely bad. The package was damp and this is not the condition we expect to receive. The outed disk that holds the filament came detached. It wasn’t in a usable condition I just booked for return. Can’t believe they are selling this with misleading colour and information

The color states as 'Metallic Copper' but more or less it's orange colour.

Initially faced a lot of clogging and contamination issues during print. This could be due to old PLA residuals. After the 'atomic' clean so far no problems. As a precautionary measure, I manually push the filament through the nozzle during preheating to clean the nozzle. I had to tune the feed rate to 100% and the temperature was reduced to 195 deg C. The PLA preheat temp is increased to 185 from earlier 155 deg C, else the PLA does not melt and flow. The color is good and the stringing is lower during prints. I faced moisture issues with earlier PLA, but so far the new filament is good to date. The reel dimension is smaller than the previous one.

Color is not exactly like copper...

IT IS NOT METALLIC OR COPPER COLOUR IT IS MUSTARD YELLOW AND NOT METALLIC, AS I WAS OUT OF STATION COULD NOT REPLACE IT .
