Pros & Cons
Pros
Filament is wound neatly on the cardboard spools and is tangle free. I print on a pei sheet, and have never had one of these prints fail on me. Since printed objects have little reflections with the matte filament, the prints in my opinion look much b... Read More
This is much stronger than overture pla+ as i had printed a set of gears in pla+ that lasted about a month in constant service before distorting and stripping teeth. The filament also seems to store well, no noticiable issues with using old rolls. Ove... Read More
Cons
The only way to keep corners from warping is with at least 10mm of brim, and even then, corners will warp by at least a millimeter. The filament is not spooled nicely either, always wanting to either unspool or twist. Same filament and material just r... Read More
The overture pla consistently gets tangled up and stops feeding into the printer. This is the most difficult pla to print i have encountered in the 8 years i have been doing 3d printing.
It's literally the only job the roll of pla has is to unroll, and they fail. What a waste of money as half the roll is gone troubleshooting this abomination of a filament. This filament is very fragile and snaps easily.
They claim that the filament was dried for 24hrs before sealing. I have a humidity gauge inside my temperature controlled enclosure so i know that it did not get moisture after opening. No adhesion. Zero adhesion after running full temp range again.
Highlights
Quality
Quite structurally sound and it prints well, i made multiple ice scrapers with it and they are all still holding up great.
Truly gives consistent prints and to date, i have not had any issues with its use.
The quality of overture pla, pla professional, and now pla super, is completely unmatched.
We had several prints fail because of the filament not feeding as it was tangled up and it even took off our feeder accessory o... Read More
Price
Losing a meter or so of filament is well worth it to save a bit of money but it is something to be noted for people new to this brand.
It's not the cheapest filament around, but it's still an extremely reasonable price for the quality you're getting.
Packaging/appearance
Came packaged in a vacuumed sealed bag so no moisture could get to it.
I also dried the filament twice out of packaging just because.
Colour is a nice matte purple as pictured.
Competitiveness
I get the best results compared to some of the other brands.
The overture pla+ black is the most versatile pla that i own.
I will always come back to overture's pla+ brand.
I do not know about other printers but this is my go to brand for my enter 3.

I recently got my first 3d printer and decided to buy this spool of filament to go along with it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
That being said the winding is absolutely atrocious

Every time i use this spool its a pain and i know im going to have to babysit the entire print meaning i cant let anything finish over night

Ive already had two prints fail because of it and each time i took it off and i thought i got the tangles fixed but ive bought much cheaper pla that has had zero windings so its pretty frustrating getting such a simple thing wrong
