ELEGOORapid PLA Plus Filament 1.75mm Bundle 4KG, PLA+ 3D Printer Filament for Fast Printing, Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02 mm, 4 Pack 1kg Cardboard Spool(2.2lbs) Black/White/Blue/Red

UPDATE: (original review is below) I am updating to 5 stars as this filament deserves. Yes they definitely had a manufacturing issues with black spots in the white on my shipment as well a few others I saw in the reviews but they contacted me right away and sent me a replacement spool. So in the end sometimes defective products get out the door but what is important is how the manufacturer responds to the problem and they did great. Now I know that if it happens again they will make it right. One more reminder to Elegoo is to tape the boxes shut so spools don’t fall out in transit.Im kind of in the market for anew printer so I’m almost even tempted to get their new Centaury Carbon printer that is coming out in a few days but so far I have only seen reviews from influencers which honestly I only trust so much as it is their business. We’ll see. I definitely recommend this filament.I have purchased this Elegoo two rolls of PLA PLUS at least 5 times before and I really like it but this last experience was less than perfect. In fact one of the two rolls was lost -twice- because the manufacturer’s box it comes in is not tapes shut so it opens in transit and the Amazon guy goes home with a roll of filament! The third time I selected for it to be boxed in an Amazon box and it managed to arrive safely. Unfortunately as you can see from the images there are black spots in the white filament which at first I didn’t think anything of it but as you can see from the finished printed product it ends up giving me black smudging right on the surface. So at this point even though I used a little of the roll this is unusable and it needs to be exchanged. I will wait to see if anyone reaches out to make this right before I initiate a return to see how the company handles service/support because I want to believe this is a fluke and I’d like to order more.

The ELEGOO Rapid PLA Plus Filament in green is everything I hoped for—clean, high-speed prints with zero clogging or stringing. It handles speeds up to 600 mm/s like a champ and maintains great layer adhesion and detail. The color is bold and consistent, and I really appreciate the eco-friendly cardboard spool. With a tight ±0.02 mm tolerance, this filament runs flawlessly through my printer. Definitely one of my new go-to brands!

I get consistently great results on my X1C. The AMS hates the cardboard spools, so I ripped off the spool sides and it fits on the Bambu spools.I went with these since there is overall less plastic waste than the unrecyclable plastic spools

The ELEGOO Rapid PLA+ Filament Bundle is specifically optimized for high-speed printing, ensuring strong layer adhesion while reducing issues like stringing and warping, even at elevated speeds. This advanced PLA+ formula boasts enhanced strength compared to standard PLA, making it more impact-resistant and less brittle, which is crucial for creating functional parts and prototypes. Users can expect excellent dimensional accuracy, with a consistent filament diameter that allows for smooth extrusion, minimizing problems like clogging and under-extrusion.Each filament in the bundle—available in vibrant Black, White, Blue, and Red colors—features a rich, even tone complemented by a semi-matte finish that effectively reduces the visibility of layer lines. The eco-friendly aspect is highlighted by the use of biodegradable cardboard spools, which not only serve as a sustainable option but are also compatible with most spool holders. Additionally, the filaments are vacuum-sealed with desiccants to ensure protection against moisture absorption, thereby maintaining long-term print quality and smooth feeding.However, it's important to note that this filament requires a slightly higher print temperature ranging from 200 to 230°C, which may pose challenges for printers with lower-end hotends that struggle to maintain optimal flow at high speeds. While it is tougher than standard PLA, it is still not as flexible as PETG or TPU, making it less suitable for applications that require bendable parts. Additionally, the cardboard spools may not fit well in certain dry boxes designed for plastic spools and can absorb moisture more quickly. To achieve the best results, users may need to tune their retraction settings, as some have reported slight stringing at higher speeds.Overall, the ELEGOO Rapid PLA+ Filament Bundle stands out as an excellent choice for those who prioritize speed, strength, and eco-friendliness in their 3D printing projects.

Easily my favorite filament! I have tried a ton of other ones and they work of but this one seems to be wayyy more forgiving when it comes to those fine adjustments. Printed multiple helmets with this filament.
