Pros & Cons
Pros
Excellent filament, prints well with my ender 3. Printed slightly higher temperature to normal pla (at 220c) i normally print a scraper out of petg or abs as normal pla is too soft.
Adhesion is excellent at 70c bed temp, with a moderate z offset. It's that time of the year again when scraping the ice off your vehicle windscreen becomes a morning ritual.
Cons
Seems impossible to know which amazon will send you.
Highlights
Quality
Super print quality, tuff, and easy to print a lot better than trying to print with abs.
Very pleased with the results from this pla+ material.
Price
Just hope the price does not inflate through popularity like so many other brands tend to do.
Packaging/appearance
Almost same settings as standard pla just need a little more heat on the hotend.
Competitiveness
So this year i decided to try esun's epla-st and boy it does the job and it's easier to print than petg and abs.
Used to use other brand but have now switched to e-sun for all my prints.
I bought this filament to print engineering-quality small-to medium-sized parts on a creality ender-3 s1 pro.
Was printed on a pursa mk3s+ with a e3d revo 6.

Overall i have given this 5 stars as i have had good success with most esun materials barring abs not sure what they added to that but its a nightmare to work with compared to plain old abs
