What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
First few layers are critical, but once it's adhered nicely all was good. Printed well straight away with no spitting (the usual amount of petg stringing) line is consistent thickness with a clear spool to see exactly how much filament you have left. ... Read More
Bed 85 deg. Got the occasional stringing / angel hair, but nothing serious and easily cleaned up. Never had a bad roll, no tangles and never had moisture problems. I understand a coating of hairspray helps as well, but i've not had to try it yet.
Cons
The filament itself isn’t very accurate and ranges from 0 to 1. The so called orange petg is more peach than orange, disappointing for halloween. Its poorly wound on the roll also and wants to fall off the reel.
The resulting print is terrible as pictured. Even after drying it for hours it only prints properly for a few metres of filament before it start popping again and the print fails. You get globbing, strings, brittle layers, you name it.
Highlights
Quality
Petg is still a pain to print with but this is a good quality petg and looks nice when printed.
Purchased two rolls of esun one pla and one petg, we are very impressed with the results from both.
Marked down one star as although mine came vacuum packed with desiccant, it would be nice to have a resealable bag included wit... Read More
Can't complain at the value for money and the print quality just poorly wound on the spool.
Price
Price was competitive, printz are hassle free

Printed well straight away with no spitting (the usual amount of petg stringing).
After struggling to get hold of esun filament for a while i'm really glad its back on amazon and easy to get hold of.
In cura, there is a esun petg profile you can use, but i had to change the settings because i had quite a lot of issues with re... Read More
This seems to be a common thing with esun filament, every spool i have and have opened has been badly wound.

The winding although poor has thus far just been cosmetic bad winding is only really an issue if the winding has not gone onto the spool properly a long as the filament is wound on without coming loose then it will come off the same way

Generally speaking when people moan or complain about badly wound spools its because of something theyve done and not the manufacturer its pretty much impossible for the manufacturer to spool filament onto a reel in a manner than it will tangle on the way off the real
