Pros & Cons
Pros
The 2kg packs at $13/kg are pretty much unbeatable for price to performance. But if you want quantity on a budget this is your go to.
It prints great, no stringing, smooth prints. I've been impressed by the strength and durability of the prints produced with sunlu petg. The prints are also consistently good with consistent results spool after spool.
Specs for printing from the manufacture are:- nozzle temperature of 220-230°c- bed temperature of 60-70°c. Kobra max, vyper, etc that use a volcano extruder tend to run hotter than the temp setting.

Quality for the price can’t be beat.
These parts are inexpensive and the quality is night and day.

Couple that with the fact the price was under $20.

See attached picture for the "bend/kink" at the end of the spool.
Competitiveness
Compared to a white filament from another, more expensive brand (sorry overture but you need to work on your plastic formula), ... Read More
Kobra max, vyper, etc that use a volcano extruder tend to run hotter than the temp setting.
This is lightyears ahead of polymaker, overture and duramic 3d's petg.
I had to slow the speed down by 25% compared to another brand that i have.
