I already ordered 1kg hyper pla white from creality ($8). What else I can buy during black Friday? I’m not sure what I’ll be printing other than trinkets and household items. These are the ones I currently have in my cart. Please let me know your thoughts and advice.

White petg 1kg from creality $6

Anycubic: petg texture gray, pla+ black, Pla strawberry pink - $26

Please let me know if I should get something else instead.

    Creality and Anycubic are fine. If you’re looking for a general low-cost manufacturer try “TINMORRY” if they’re available in your region, I’ve good experiences with those.

    For really high quality take a look at extrudr.

    Do yourself a favour though, don’t buy bulks of filament from those cheap AliExpress brands (like Tecbears, Geeetech and such). They’re cheap and really bad.

      Eryone and Jayo are pretty good (and cheap) too. I didn’t have issues with Tecbears PLA I got from Amazon

            I had issues with both SUNLU and Jayo. Jayo spools came tangled, smelly like hell (it was just PLA) and with “white” being a really dirty one (more light very bright grey), and SUNLU devices are total shit with their customer support not working at all. I’d never recommend those products.

              Funny enough it was quite the opposite for me I had horrible experiences with eSun(and still have them when I open a role that is still orginally packed from my storage) and switched to Sunlu/Jayo and did not have to many issues (as in: Two. Once a order was massively delayed (not their, something went wrong at the parcel service), the other time a role was not correctly packed (in one of the triple packs) and they send another three role package.

              Print wise they are by far the most printed filament for us and we got through upper double digits by now.
