Pros

Voxalab aquila (swiss micro) is all metal hotend and. Infill 20 (not sure matters much based on design of vase. The effect works beautifully but is most noticeable during vase mode.

The spool winding is perfect and never a * when printing. Layer adhesion seems just fine, offering plenty of strength. The roll is neat and on a good quality spool, so no hanging during prints. No tangle or feeding issues either.

The esun silk magic pla has a very shiny finish and the blue/green coextrusion looks fantastic. This filament has a beautiful shimmer and shine to it that feels almost magical. The result is a beautiful metallic silik pla with a chrome like, ultra shi...  Read More

The blue is an electric medium blue, almost a turquoise. The red is a vibrant pinkish ruby red.

The only caveat is that you cannot control how the colors interact. It's all about finding that perfect temperature and watching as your creations come to life in vibrant color. However, it’s not all rainbows and sunshine.



Cons

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.


The filament is wound neatly on the spool.

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


You can download the designs for free at prusa printables and thingyverse.


I've had great results with esun in the past and this is no difference.


So, based on this test, i would say that, while this is very food filament that prints well and looks good, i have seen a few o...  Read More

    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

    I normally use pla and plahs filament and all my profiles are setup for those

    This was my first time using any silk pla and it took a bit of time recalibrating


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The layer adhesion isnt as strong during printing as it is with pla and plahs so that took several tries to dial in
