GEEETECH TPU Filament 1.75mm, 3D Printer Filament, TPU 95A, 1KG, Black

I was blown away by the quality of this filament. The packaging is industry standard vacuum bags in a box, but they include a nice resealable bag for you to put it away in afterwards. At the price, the ease of printing was phenominal.I use a Prusa MK4, this was as easy as: stick the spool on the spool holder, load it and hit print. I started with the default Prusament PLA profile from PrusaSlicer, and that seemed to produce good results, but playing with the temperatures led me to use 210C and 60C when not using Input Shaper to get the best texture.The filament stuck great to both a textured PEI and smooth PEI sheet (no products added to the bed sheets, just cleaned with isopropyl) and released easily once the bed had cooled down, no flexing required! The models came out great, no stringing at all, and no banding issues that you'd expect if the filament varried in diameter. I measured the diameter with my calipers, and sure enough they reported exactly 1.75mm.When you're trying to take the filament off the spool this one doesn't shatter like some other PLAs, and the final prints seem strong and able to handle forces just like any other PLA filaments. The matte texture felt and looked great, but of course, different temperatures of printing will change this, so bare that in mind.I've had 3D printers since around 2016, and I remember when you just could not get affordable, good quality filament. My am I happy that has changed, this isn't the first Geeetech filament I've used, I have previously used their ABS+ and PETG lines, and they stack up to the same great quaility at the same great prices. I can say I will be using their filaments again.

Unusual orange colour, really nice matte.No adhesion issues or stringing, prints nicely.Recommended

Great matte pla! Lovely deep blue that isn't shiny!No stringing or clogs, I didn't need to dry out of the box. Highly recommended

Extremely poor tolerances causing constant extruder jams and failed prints. Gets stuck in my 2mm extruder for my 0.8 printer, so tolerance is nearer +/- 0.3mm NOT +/-0.03mm. Spool winding not even with an unnecessary amount of filament bends. I suspect the filament wasn't cooled sufficiently before spooling.Not sure if the photo will show it, but my calipers measured a 0.1mm difference (low to high) over about 5cm of filament, including the kink.You may have better luck, but I doubt it. Save the disappointment and buy elsewhere.

Ah GEEETECH filaments.Honestly, I like these guys. They make great filaments for a really affordable price.That being said, what I found is, their filament is a bit wet when you get it.Now, packing is good, you get your roll nicely packaged in vacuum bag with a dessicant bag inside. For that, no complaints. But, dessicant bag isn't enough to keep it print ready out of the box.So I did some tests as you can see in the pictures provided. Right of the box, I've printed a temperature tower and as you can see this thing strings A LOT.Now, I actually do 3d printing services so I know that first thing you do is to dry the filaments before printing.Temperature tower might look pretty bad, but next test I did without drying it is to print a self watering pot. As you can see, doesn't look as bad, because it doesn't have fine details to cause stringing.It only needed to be in a drybox for few hours on about 50c for all that stringing to go away.It's a great filament really, I like that almost terracotta colour. One star is deducted just because it came with more moisture than some other brands. Nevertheless, I would say if you want a nice filament and willing to dry it for few hours (as you should either way). You won't go wrong with this one.All tests were done on Prusa mini plus that I use for prototyping, no special settings were needed, and after drying it prints great. Love the matte look.

Perfect results

Cheaper and performance is as good as more expensive brands

The filament delivers excellent performance consistently. Highly recommendedThe colour remains the same after printed(I had filaments where the colour came out yellowish instead of white) making it perfect for prototypes and final products. The prints come out incredibly smooth with impressive detail, even on complex designs. I've noticed no clogging issues, and the filament feeds through the extruder flawlessly, providing a hassle-free printing experience.The prints are sturdy and can withstand a fair amount of stress, making it ideal for functional parts. Additionally, the filament adheres well to the build plate, reducing warping issues common with ABS.Print settings: 90c bed and 235c extrusion at 150mm/s
