OVERTURE Matte PLA Filament 1.75mm, 1kg Matte Light Brown

Quality and consistency you can count on. This TPU prints reliably everytime. No tangles and very good cardboard spools that hold up well in multi material units. Like any TPU, make sure to dry it for a few hours before printing since its veey hygroscopic. If you can, dry it while printing to reduce string and surface defects in longer prints

Best TPU filament I bought so far. It prints very well and almost rubber in consistency.

Beautiful filament. Had initial problems with what looked like temperature or extrusion. This type of filament (TPU) is extremely sensitive to drag between the reel and nozzle, and my dryer was creating significant drag due to the angles involved. Propped up the back of my dryer with a toolbox insert, and secured the front from sliding with duct tape. Perfect prints now. I do recommend enabling pressure advance, for those who are new to TPU. Slow down all print speeds to 20mm/s - 30mm/s, bring temps up into the 225c range for the nozzle and the bed should be around 50c first layer and 40c other layers. If you're getting clean prints with those settings on a Z square, then you can experiment with faster infill speeds, but I would keep walls and first layer speeds pretty slow. If your Z square isn't adhering well then you have other problems! Overall, definitely can't print this as fast as PLA+, but the flexibility (pun intended) is great!

As someone who prints regularly for both functional parts and hobby models, I’ve gone through several brands of PLA. OVERTURE’s purple filament is one of the better options I’ve used, especially at this price point. Pros: Color & Finish: The purple hue is vibrant without being garish. It has a nice semi-gloss finish that really pops on detailed prints like figurines and display pieces. Winding & Spool: The spool is neatly wound, which matters more than most people realize — no tangles or snags, which means fewer failed prints due to filament jams or inconsistent feeding. Print Performance: Layer adhesion is solid. I printed at 200°C with a 60°C bed and got smooth, clean results with minimal stringing. It handled retraction and bridging well, even on more complex geometries. Compatibility: Works great with my Ender 3 V2 and also performed well on a Prusa MK3S+. I’ve gone through nearly the entire spool without any noticeable inconsistencies or clogging. Cons: Not the strongest PLA: While the surface quality is excellent, this isn’t the toughest PLA I’ve worked with. If you need something more impact-resistant or functional under stress, you might want to look at PLA+ or PETG. Slight odor when printing: Nothing overpowering, but there’s a noticeable sweet-plastic smell during printing. It’s not unpleasant — just something to be aware of if printing in a small space. Final Verdict: For hobbyists, cosplay builders, and general-purpose 3D printing, OVERTURE’s PLA delivers reliable performance and vibrant results. It’s especially good for decorative prints or detailed models. Not quite industrial-grade, but it’s consistent, beginner-friendly, and well-priced. I’ll definitely be buying more colors from this brand.

Does not glow! It’s basic at best.
