Pros & Cons
Pros
This filament prints a gorgeous silky metallic finish that really catches the eye for decorative pieces.
Pla+ silk multicolor. The color transition and gloss finish of this filament is really good. The blue is an electric medium blue, almost a turquoise. The red is a vibrant pinkish ruby red.
Once i got things dialed in though, the quality is so very much worth it. Love the looks and pretty much flawless with not a single fail. But, considering how much i enjoyed the printing process and the results, it's a minor quibble.
This is a warm toned filament, with the silver and gold not being harsh. In bright light, this material really pops with a metallic reflectiveness. High luster finish.
Highlights
Quality
This is quality material, easy to work with and delivers plenty of shine and bright vibrant color.
One of the best filaments i’ve used in my 8 years of 3d printing!
This spool is made of clear plastic.
Zero clogging even at high speeds on the x1c
Price
Essentially, this is good to above average filament and prints pretty well, but i feel it is a bit more expensive than it should be.
Shipping
Wonderful product amazon sent wrong filament 6 times .
Packaging/appearance
Came well sealed and no issues with excess moisture resulting in very clean blob and defect free prints.
This filament looks very nice and should do very well for christmas decor, etc (especially this silver and gold combo).
Filament arrived vacuum sealed with the obligatory silica packet, neatly wound around a plastic spool.
All the dinosaurs shown were printed in the same batch, but rotated differently, so they catch different amounts of the red and blue.
Competitiveness

My ender 3pro retraction settings need a bit of tweaking so youll notice some artifacts on the shuriken in the photos but what you should be looking at is the silky smooth surface finish
