MakerBotPLA Filament True Red Large (.9kg, 2lb)

MakrBot has the best performing filament I have found so far. Consistent quality when printing

I picked this up to run in my MakerBot Replicator Mini, and MakerBot does a great job with their PLA filament to work in their printers. I can't report on how this PLA will print on other printers, but I assume it will be the same. Nice, uniform color and consistency throughout my print will little to no warping at 215 C. I have tried quite a few other brands of filament, and I can say that the MakerBot PLA is what I go for when I am looking for the easiest print.Unfortunately, MakerBot filament is largely over-priced, and is made to only be compatible with certain models of their own printers. The best part about owning a 3D printer is that you can print parts for it and upgrade it yourself, and I have printed parts to make my Rep Mini accept the larger 1KG spools of any brand of filament. Without that, the MakerBot filament is not only overpriced, but even more of a sham for making me only buy small spools for my printer.All in all, if you can stomach the price tag, then expect this filament to perform with little to no issue as long as the right print parameters are used.

Prints well. Less warping than other brands.The diameter of this reel is pretty large, I had to get creative with my monoprice 3d printer in how to mount it for automatic feeding.

This plastic is the "silk" kind so it's very shiny and pretty

This is a really good PLA, but the price is 3X of equally good no-brand varieties.

Very consistent filament! Works great in hot or warm weather, doesn't flucuate too much in Florida humidity. You don't really have to fit with this to get good prints.

Good filament, but tends to get tangled easily

This dominance sucked at first , wouldn’t stick to bed and kept curling up. Once I dehydrated it for 4hours it worked very well. I must of got a some wet Filament with moisture in it .printed at 230c

I use this filament for my Makerbot Replicator + at the University I work at. The filament is excellent, but is significantly more expensive than a lot of other filaments. I wish Makerbot was more flexible with their filaments and their warranty.
