Good!
I'm sort of a newbie and started on a Flashforge original. My first 2 rolls were the Hatchbox ABS black and white. After running a lot of testing with great success with the Hatchbox, I knew I needed more black. I went back on amazon and I ran across this brand. It was only $2 cheaper and saw plenty of good reviews. I bought it and so far, it's been printing just the same as the Hatchbox black. Same print settings.While pointing a white LED flashlight at the final print, I saw a strange tint of blue(?). I put a print from the Hatchbox next to this one and sure enough... there was a distinct dark hue of. Luella under a bright white LED flashlight. Under normal lighting, looks just like the Hatchbox black. Don't know if this even matters but thought I'd share the discovery :-) MAKE STUFF!As of 7/11/16, there are non of these available on amazon. In any color? Out of business? Got bought out? Too bad if that's the case.

Paid reviews! Awful, product in every way. Please learn from my mistakes.
I had such a terrible time with this filament. There were so many inconsistencies and I could never get the temperature just right. I've taken my hotend apart thinking I had a clog in the PTFE tube to no avail. I have literally run through every possible variable in simplify3d to try to get things right and almost inevitably I would come back 15 minutes later to a ball of abs surrounding my extruder nozzle. I finally gave up and on a whim got a roll of hatchbox filament just in case I was dealing with something so simple as terrible filament. After that, every print came out near-perfect using my original simplify3d settings. Nearly all of the positive reviews for this brand clearly state: "This product was provided to me at a discount for my 'honest' review." Please keep that in mind and stay away from this garbage.

I bought two rolls of this filament a little while ago because of some sale. The first roll printed decently for about the first 1/3 kg, then it proceeded to stop printing after a minute or two into every print. I cleaned out my nozzle and discovered that the black "abs" filament left behind a clear material that felt a little like a plastic bag.I cut of that bit that was attached to the rest of the spool and tied again. Once again, after a minute or two of printing, the nozzle clogged. I pulled out the filament and noticed more of that plastic bag-like material. I cleaned out my nozzle and went back to other filament brands.Yesterday I pulled out my second roll because I was running low on black filament. The spool looked promising, so I let it continue to print overnight. When I woke up, I discovered that the filament had stopped extruding only a few layers after what I had seen the night before. Annoyed, I checked to see if the spool had tangled. It hadn't. I unloaded my extruder and (shocker) discovered that clear material again. I had to take apart the whole extruder and am soaking my nozzle in acetone now.Don't bother with this filament. It's a lot more trouble than its worth.

and this by far warps worst than any of them
I've worked with several different filaments, and this by far warps worst than any of them. I was using a heated bed at 80 degrees Celsius with stick glue. I've printed many designs with different filaments where the print surface was much wider and laying flat and have not had these issues. The layer on the print bed was not very wide, no where close to some of my other prints, so I'm surprised it still warps the way it does, even after reducing the print area. Several 8 hr prints later, plus a lot of time trying to redesign my prints hoping they work, no cigar. Still ruined prints.

Rude company
Abs filament seems good but the problem is first it is not BLACK it is DARK BLUEAlso ABS strings got stuck in the spool so I have to manually check the spool and let it flow easily.I would not recommend this company also. I contacted them and let them know about my problems, they just send me a Thank you for your review message that's all. This is really rude thing to do. So bad customer service.I will edit my review if they understand the real problem and fix it.

Strange sized reel so I made a custom holder for it. The trailing end of the filament is inside the reel so had to trim so it wouldnt catch during unreeling.Then first print when things did go as planned I stopped and with a no tension and it unreeled many turns. It may print ok but keeping it spooled is a real challenge. The reel is nearly filled to the edge so any slack and you have a mess.it appears to be a really dark blue , not solid black.It appears to print ok if you can get it to feed and run. I wont buy again.

... prints out of this and then it clogged the crap out of my nozzle and extruder
I got some decent prints out of this and then it clogged the crap out of my nozzle and extruder. When I took everything apart it was severely clogged and was not pure ABS. The clog would not dissolve in acetone or push out no matter what temperature I heated my nozzle to. I had to drill out the clog and from the picture you can clearly see that it's not even the black of the rest of the roll. Pretty disappointed in this material and will definitely be going with another brand for my future ABS prints.

I just had a chance to print with the black ABS filament and it is great quality! I ran it at 215 degrees C with a bed temp of 90 degrees C. The first attempt didn't stick to the bed to0 well, so I applied gluestick liberally and so far it's looking great. The recommended extruder temp of 230 made it look stringy and the print didn't have good detail, so I lowered it to 215 and each layer is adhering great and looks excellent.

Very poor. Buyer beware.
Very poor. Good bed adhesion on normally reliable Prusa i3, but lots of defects in the print regardless of temp, speed, flow. Output is brittle and unusable.Checked reviews to see if others had any problems and guess what - they are all "reviews" in exchange for a white 10m filament sample. I can't find any reviews of other colours or anything other than a sample, so this is misleading at best.Fakespot.com also gave the reviews an "F", so you should decide for yourselves if you want to take the risk.
