PLA filament is an excellent material for a beginner to start with and has the added benefit of being a bio-plastic, typically derived from corn. Low odour and consistently round diameters make this material very easy to work with.
Tips for Printing with PLA:
-
- Ensure your bed is level for optimal first layer adhesion.
- Experiment with printing temperatures to find the best results for your printer.
- Consider using a cooling fan for intricate details and bridging.
- Store your PLA filament in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use. Please use the resealable plastic bag with the desiccant pack provided.

Inconsistent color
I will not buy again. The color is inconsistent from one spool to another. The end result is also very brittle compare to other PLA.

Finish issues
Tried a few different temperatures and part orientation and still ended up with a rough bottom surface with the gold color filament. Same data with different filament was considerably better.

Great PLA
I've been using Spool3D PLA filament for a while now and I have no complaints whatsoever. I've had better print quality than I did with the roll of Prusament that came with my printer. The gold is not a super bright gold but it does look really good. Will have to try a metal filled gold to see if it's brighter. Prusa MK3S

Spool3D 1.75mm GOLD "Metal" Filament Review
Terrific filament for re-creating GOLD. I have used it for a bracelet and a jewelry box. Really nice!

Beautiful finish
I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I ordered this, but was pleasantly surprised that the end product was much closer to a silk PLA than regular gloss. It seems to be relatively strong, too (most silk PLA I've used has been brittle), which means that for certain prints I would prefer to use this.
