Handini PLA Filament Pro Black, PLA Plus 3D Printing Filament 1.75mm, Upgraded Toughness Neat Winding,Dimensional Accuracy +/-0.03mm, 2.2lbs(1kg)/Spool,Fit Most 3D Printer

For starters, be cautious of some reviews of this (and any) filaments. As I read through them, some of the problems have nothing to do with the filament, but are due to poor printer tuning and/or other non-filament related issues. For example, this filament runs great on the Bambu Lab P1S AMS. However, there are some reviews talking about retraction errors and blaming it on the spool when in reality, it's more of an AMS problem (a problem that has largely been resolved in the firmware as of the time I write this review) or a low weight spool issue (AMS struggles in general when the spools get close to empty, but adding a printed spool weight helps as lot with that).Now to the real review ... THIS STUFF PRINTS LIKE BUTTER!!! I have purchased 4 different colors of this filament (orange, pine green, yellow and purple). All of them make flawless prints and I've used it in my Bambu Lab with the AMS as well as an Ender 3 and a Creality K1. It prints as good as any of the big brand name filaments like AMolen, Creality, Flashforge/Voxelab, etc. I'd even compare it to brands like Cookie Cad, although it's not as fancy as those ... lol.Adhesion has never been an issue for me on a clean PEI plate .... You can use glue stick if you want, but I haven't needed to when my plate is clean.The only time I've seen minor stringing has been on small points ... and that's probably because I haven't tuned my machine to print this filament, but that's the point ... IT REALLY DOESN'T NEED MUCH TUNING.It flows very well and the resulting prints are durable and strong. The picture I posted with this review was using the pine green and it is an amazing color that's hard to find in other brands for anywhere near the same cost. The deep red color and brown are some other colors where the value can't be beat in another brand.I haven't been paid to say any of this or rewarded with any free filament, although I'd gladly take some ... lol, but when I'm looking to buy a color of filament, I will pay a few $$ more to get this brand because I just don't have to worry about it.It's gone up in price the last 4 or 5 months, but I can see why. There are occasional $2 or $3 coupons and I'd love to see more, but if it ever hits the prices I was seeing last summer, I will stock up. I gladly pay $16 / roll for it as that is a good value, but if it hits the $12-13 or less mark again, look out. I may break my budget.

I'm always experimenting with different filaments. When I saw this one for a decent price I decided to give it a try. The filament came neatly wound on a plastic reel, vacuum sealed with a small bag of desiccant in the package. Any filament that comes in good shape before I even start using it automatically gets a star.The next thing I noticed, was the print color shown actually matches the color shown in the adds. Another 2 stars from me. I hate when the color shown is nowhere near what you actually see.When I tried printing using my stock PLA+ filament settings, the print came out super! Perfect adhesion, no stringing and on other complaints. I use an aftermarket PEI sheet on my Prusa I3MK3S and not once had a problem printing this filament.Bottom line is, I would rate this stuff right up there with every other quality filament I have used. I like it so much in fact, I plan on purchasing more of it for several other projects I have coming up. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Nice blue color

real smooth easy printing

Well pretty decent at Printing and I couldn't get it to print very well it was kind of stringy and bubbly but it could have needed drying so I gave them four stars but it was taken right out of there sealed package and printed so I'm not too sure about that either I've only printed one thing with it

I have burned thru 50 or so spools of the Handini Black PLA Plus and just ordered 10 more. The price is great (2 pack of 1kg spools for ~$25.xx as of 28MAR2024). I have 10 different machines running it, Bambu X1-C thru the AMS, K1, K1 Max, a platoon of Ender 3 S1/plus/pro’s, Ender 7, and a couple of poor boy Ender 3 w/ direct drive. I run mainly 0.2mm nozzles, but also 0.3 and 0.4.I print fast and slow with no problems (from the filament).I will say it is more forgiving with moisture compared to ESun and others. Left some spools sitting out for months in Houston, TX humidity and it did not go brittle and break to pieces.May need to dry it if you get a stringy spool. I seldom do.Anyways. Its decently good filament that had never given me problems and it is priced right.

I had slight doubt of the quality. To my surprise, it shamed hatchbox’s filaments lol. It arrived dry so no strings nor brittle cracks. Great value. Hope the maker will keep up the quality.

Here I find a really good silk bronze PLA that prints flawlessly and they don't sell it anyway. Typical Amazon
