I have tried all of the Elegoo PLA and PETG filaments (although more like 30, not 300 rolls) and love it. I've tried Inland, Jessie's, Protopasta and Prusa and you can't beat the price. Quality is always the same on every roll.
I’ve been using a different filament on Amazon that has been incredible.. it has a weird name tho that I can’t remember right now but it’s been great for $13-$14 a roll.. I recently JUST switched to Elegoo PLA + because my normal high speed PLA that I swore was the best ever for the money was always out of the colors I needed on Amazon. I am super excited to try this new Elegoo PLA+.. the reviews say it’s top notch and I bought a 4 pack multi color packs with ALL 4 colors I was needing for just over $10 a roll! You can’t beat it! And if it prints as good as everyone says it does or even as good as my last go-to filiment then I’ll be VERY happy.. as they offer better colors more consistently AND I’m saving $3-$4 PER roll!
Suggestion: since you are using the filament with the Bambu printers and they don't have a default profile for Elegoo's PLA, why not share your filament settings? :)
I guess I should have mentioned that I use the Bambu pla setting for the elegoo filament. Bambu's profile just prints a bit faster than the generic. I keep the rfid things from Bambu filament and tape them to new rolls of filament.
@@davetriesthisI agree! I have tried lots of ABS as I print with that materials regularly for Tool holders and outdoor stuff and the creality “CR series” ABS is not only very cheap and affordable but has amazing colors and just WORKS. I have prolly used 30 rolls in various colors by now and have yet to have a single issue on my Flashforge 5m Pro. I just recently bought an A1 mini with their multi color system and can’t wait to test my new Elegoo 4 pack multi color filiment on it!
It’s actually funny because everyone says “ABS is SOoO hard to print” yet it’s the EASIEST and most nice looking prints I do with my 5m pros.. zero stringing, beautiful and consistent layer lines, easy to remove supports, and just perfect. I just thought it was funny cuz everyone says it’s the hardest to print out of all the common types but I always felt it was easy.. it’s almost as easy as PLA and certainly more consistent than PETG for me.
@@BiffsEquipment 100% agree... there's a learning curve but once you crack that code it's my favorite material to work with. Even my old modified E3-Pro with an enclosure handled it perfectly. I avoid PETG at all cost unless I need more flexibility or a certain chemical resistance. I have no idea why it was touted as better than ABS for so long and the plastic creep makes it a no-go for me when it comes to structural parts. I truly despise that material. The fact ASA is so much easier to get cheap now is even better and CF-ASA is a dream to work with. A lot of printer components are overhyped but the best investment I've made is a 0.5mm tungsten carbide nozzle. I highly recommend it.
You can use any filament with the AMS systems. It just won't automatically know what the filament is like Bambu spools because they don't know what filament it is. You have to set it to generic pla in the slicer
lol. If it was a commercial I'd make money. Even if you buy it with my affiliate link I make something like forty cents a spool a Aqq. Which doesn't really offset the hundred plus rolls I've bought for my print farm. But sure, it's a commercial.

I have only recently discovered it but I agree 100%. Best filament I've ever used.

Yeah all of their filament is great and I'll probably do more reviews. But this is the one I use because the price often drops a lot at holidays.
Agreed. Although for the extra pennies I use their pla+. Never had an issue on Neptune 4 plus.
The plus is great too!
I buy those spools in 4 packs regularly. They're simply the best deal there is.

Have you tried their ASA (or ABS) by chance? That's mostly what I print and there's a lot of variance between brands.
I've used their ABS but only a little job. It was great as well. Creality also makes a great ABS.

How does it play with the AMS? Do I need adapters?
