JAYO PLA+ 3D Printer Filament, PLA Plus Filament 1.75mm, Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02 mm, 0.65kg Spool ( 1.43 lbs ), PLA+ Black

At the time of writing this review, majority of the big brands are either out of stock or jacked prices up.The JAYO (has a connection with SUNLU) white filament cane air wrapped. Once opened, it fed into the extruded nicely.Used on an Ender 3 Pro, upgraded extruder, glass bed, BLTouch and fan mod.First print is are temperature tower to see what temp is best. JAYO advises 200-230. I found 215 to be good. Bed at 60 for first later then down to 52 rest of.Then printed a toothbrush head holder - fantastic print.Would be 5 * (this is my first ever filament) but it’s a little translucent in compote when out again at a sheet of paper for example.Majority of reviews say to avoid. My pictures show otherwise. It’s a delicate game, the printer needs to be fine tuned - not always the filaments fault.Hope you found useful.

a few years ago I did a semi scientific test to see what was the difference in filaments so I got some expensive, a few mid range and some cheap ones and ran off some prints with each. I concluded that the dearer makes performed no better than the medium and in some cases the cheaper brands. In the end I came to believe that the geetech brand were giving me my best print for my money and have - if possible stayed with them . I also later found that Sunlu and Giantarm was comparable . I may have to re-evaluate, It's early -too early - to be absolutely sure but this may be my new go to filament. Its definitely worth a try, I'll have to try some other colours but the white has been outstanding. I sell my prints so they have to be good. it will rank among my trusted filaments for sure. These are some of my items that came off the printer today. Printed on a standard ender3 with a glass bed. printed at 205 degrees height 0.2 fan 80% I printed the War of the Worlds Martian tripod kit with a 5mm brim because it was printed overnight with freezing conditions outside and it holds the pieces together almost like a sprue.

After trying this filament I will definitely be buying Jayo filament again. Print quality has been excellent. Every print I have done with it so far has came out great, even the temperature print tower came out well. Settled on 200 degrees for nozzle temperature and layer adhesion has been very good. Have done a mix of models and a lithophane with it as seen in the pictures.Would definitely recommend this as a good filament for lithophanes. All in all I would highly recommend. Hopefully they release a quality petg filament too as I have not found one yet where I get consistent results.

I printed some retainer clips that are used with bungee cord. I was expecting this carbon fibre PLA to be much stronger that standard PLA. However the opposite is true. Standard PLA is much stronger that this carbon fibre PLA.The finish is a lovely smooth matte finish and I was initially pleased with the results. But I was soon disappointed when I could easily bend and break the results with my fingers and without that much force. Aesthetically the results look nice, but nowhere near as strong as standard PLA. The Carbon Fibre content is supposed to be 20% and claims to have a have strength. It's certainly not brittle, but sadly the increased strength is missing.

UPDATE:The filament arrived yesterday and the red PETG was already opened, possibly damaged due to there being a large hole in the side of the box. I was very quick to dismiss this PETG after it failed to print nicely several times.I left the box all packaged up overnight in my print room which is pretty warm. I started to print the returns label and something was nagging me in the back of my head. So I tried the filament again. Once again with the face mask ear savers. 10 in total on the build plate, direct off the Prusa website. I'm using 100% standard Prusa MK3S settings. This time around they are printing fine. Still got a little blob on the skirt but that's not really an issue as the skirt is a prime line anyway. This does still tend to stick to the nozzle more than the Sunlu brand I've used, but so far I can't complain. I will be changing the nozzle to a nozzle X which will eliminate any sticking all together so that won't be an issue afterwards.I was quick to condemn the filament, but I can only put it down to moisture. As it's printing really well right now after a nice warm 20 hours.I've left the original review down below for reference.I REALLY wanted to like this filament. I own a Prusa MK3S which will print anything I throw at it. But unfortunately this Filament doesn't want to play nicely for me.The colours are really nice, but the red PETG came with a ripped bag. I tried the red at printing out some face mask ear savers. I've printed hundreds already so should be an easy print but it wasn't.The filament came out of the nozzle like a worm and curled up really fast. I cleaned the nozzle with 99% IPA and it still did it making a sticky mess. I always wash my build plates in warm soapy water and then wipe over with 99% IPA and never have any issues. But this filament just curls up or blobs all over the build plate.I removed the filament and put my Sunlu PETG back and tried again. Instant perfect prints. So again I tried the red filament and again, blobs of filament everywhere. It's almost as if the filament is trying to contract too much and is pulling itself into large blobs of molten filament. I tried again with my Sunlu PETG and again, perfect prints. I might have been able to get this to print if I'd got hours to spend adjusting every little setting. But when you can buy a filament that just does what it's supposed to without any hassle, it's not worth paying cheap and losing a lot of time.So it's a big no from me I'm afraid.

Ok at best, I brought this to make quick boxes for my market stall and that's all its good for, fast and cheap draft products full of moisture out if the vacuum sealed bag, extremely brittle and just looks generally cheap. Now that's not a bad thing it's 100% why I brought it as it was the cheapest prime filament I wanted for just draft product and making my market stall boxes. So in short if you want a cheap filament for fast draft products then 2 thumbs up, if you want to make a high quality print.....then pay for the good filament. I am extremely new at this but I noticed the difference straight from my more expensive filament without even printing with it.
