Pros & Cons
Pros
The color is sort of milky but clear sometimes. It has a different feel and a higher sheen than pla. I also like their vacuum sealed foil bags they use too.
Initial layer 85c, subsequent laters at 70c bed temp. This stuff is a lot hotter, it starts at 260c.
Once you get the settings dialed in, it just prints great. Perfect prints with almost no stringing. It doesn't matter the filament, they all have a bit of hydration and pop a bit while printing unless dehydrated.
There is only ond issue that i do not like and that is that the filament sticks to other peices of filament on the roll. No bubbles, no layer adhesion issues, very little stringing.
Cons
It looks like something in overtures formula was changed when they switched to the cardboard spools. It literally is tangled on the spool. The problem is how it's wound on the spool.
Worst petg i've ever used. Had to scrounge up a mix of leftovers in various colors that actually worked. It is inexpensive, and now i understand why.
Highlights
Quality
I am quite satisfied with the performance.
I like the quality and printability of this filament.
I've been printing with overture filament for about a year now and have been pleased with the ease of use, quality, and results... Read More
I never have an issue with the spool winding or anything.
Packaging/appearance
First print with petg was a simple cable clip to organize cables on an ikea shelf.
Tried this as hatchbox was listing their black and white petg as not available.
I've switched to overture completely for both the packaging and print quality.
I found that even right out of the package this filament showed that it was very wet.
Competitiveness
Printed smoothly, very little stringing, great adhesion even compared to other petg brands i've tried.
This is one of the best petg filaments i've ever used.
This filament works well after i figured out that i needed to store it in a drybox with dessicant to get the humidity down to 10%.
It doesn't seem to stretch as much as hatchbox.
