Color: 4 Pack Silk Dual Color
These are small reels, and I find that I go through one quite quickly. The colors are very nice, and I really want to use a lot of this filament, so the small reels are a bit frustrating. It guess this is just a nice four-reel sampler pack to give it a test. I will probably end up buying full-sized r
eels of the colors I like so I don't run out. I am finding that the filament needs to be heated up much higher than I use for my normal PLA runs. Normally I run at about 200C, for this I'm at 215-220. That seems to work.

Great glow in dark filament
Color: 4 Pack Glow Pla
Tried out these glow in dark filament on my Ender 3 Neo, turned out great! Followed the recommended specs, nozzle at 210 C and bed at 50 C temperature. Printed several ghosts which ambient room light doesn't really cause them to glow very bright in the dark. I took my flashlight and shined on them fo
r a few seconds and that made a difference. They glowed brightly for a few minutes and started to dim. Probably will last longer with more light saturation. Overall very happy and plan on using them for my Halloween projects.

One of the four roles doesn't glow at all.
Color: 4 Pack Glow Pla
The roll labelled "Deep Blue" has no glow to it at all. The only options I have are complete refund or complete exchange. No way to contact seller. Update: Amazon replaced the rolls. The new ones all glow. Last picture is of the new replacement rolls after being in the sun for 15 seconds.

Great way to try new material/colors
Color: Wood,marble,sparkles Gold,bronze
I love these packages. I was struggling to find brown filament that didn't cost a fortune. I saw this package set (wood, gold, glitter, and marble) and decided to give it a shot. I have bought from this brand before and had good results, so I was optimistic that I would have the same with these. Havi
ng used 3 of the 4, I am happy with this purchase. (All printed on an Ender 3 at 200° nozzle and 60° bed). The marble was amazing and my prints came out perfect. The model texture and adhesion were exactly what I wanted. The same goes for wood. The glitter I am skeptical about. The filament itself is VERY fragile and I broke it twice just trying to remove the filament from the hole that keeps the spool from unwinding. Getting it to feed into the machine was just as tough. The prints themselves came out fine. Adhesion was fine. Texture was fine. But the appearance wasn't what I was expecting. Instead of being shiny and glittery, the filament became almost opaque. It is more of a creamy color with glitter specks in it, as opposed to the clear glitter it began as. It's not ugly, but it's not what I expected. I had been looking at trying glitter filament for a while, and had I bought an entire roll, I would have been disappointed. Since this was a single roll out of a 4-pack, I am not so upset. Overall, my prints are coming out nicely. I will definitely continue to buy from this brand.

This filament turned out amazing, its printed better than most of the other filaments I've used and any problems I've had with it were caused by the printer and no the filament. The quality has been beyond my expectations.

This thing SUCKS, literally
Color: Automatic Pumps Vacuum Bags Kit 16 Pack
The pump on this kit is amazing. battery powered, which makes it super convenient. Bags are a little dissappinting though. They start to leak air after the first or second use...

These bags are super convenient and I have dozens of fillaments in these bags. However, longevity is not amazing, they are semi-disposable and loose sealing after a few uses. Still, the convenience is so good I keep using them.

Great inexpensive vacuum bags
Color: Automatic Pumps Vacuum Bags Kit 16 Pack
(full refund was provided for the defective pump) the big reason i went with this product was the included vacuum pump. The thing is garbage. couldn't get a single bag to vacuum seal. I ended up using our vacuum pump from our larger clothes bags to do the trick. but as i sit hear typing this, i can h
ear crinkling from the bags like they are losing their seal. will update this review if im pleasantly surprised but im not going to hold my breath. Update: bags appear to be holding vacuum. Seller offered refund for the defective pump.

Pretty, but color transition too long for most prints . Brittle on the roll.
Color: 4 Pack Silk Shiny Pla
Pics are the blue/green and red/gold rolls. Looks pretty where it's clean, but where other filaments with my setup I had not problems of this sort, both rolls I've tried so far from this sample pack chewed up the filament at the extruder gear To be fair...ish... these were in a filament dryer that ho
nestly is bad for using while printing. But again, of the four rolls I've used in that thing, ONLY these two did this at all. Minimal resistance to line tension and retraction. So far the only filaments I've been able to just bend a couple times to break the line or had break while straightening the end to get it into the extruder tubes. Other things to note: This stuff makes STICKY prints. Good for adhesion, but feels like I'm holding a glue stick when holding relatively fresh prints. Makes the results fairly strong too, which is double-edged as getting these supports off has been literally painful. They're, even at effectively minimum density/size, almost as hard as the print itself and very, very clingy to the print body. I could probably learn what settings I could tweak to mitigate this some, but I'd burn most a roll trying. It's worth noting the spool size is ~half a normal 1kg spool. Makes sense given these are 200g rolls, but don't expect the mini-spools to work well in a dryer or any other setups designed for normal rolls. Alone these were jumping and swinging around in my dryer like a jumping bean in hot oil.. Bit odd, but my super glue that's worked on all my PLA stuff so far would not stick to this stuff. To sum up: Prints are pretty and hard when / if you get a print done w/o it falling apart, and get supports off w/o breaking it. Shorter color transition distance would be really nice. An actual complete blending of the two colors the entire roll would probably be much nicer, given the effect this has. The Red/Gold has specks of gold in the red, granted, but w/o the just right lighting one can barely notice even the gold section being gold. Red/gold head is ~26m of material and only the crown of the head is notably gold in normal light (pics are with flash and camera's auto color correction). The blue/green was disappointing too. Printed the four TMNT boys and got two blue ones and two green ones... none were actually blue/green.... and the green is actually teal. Pretty, neat, but REALLY not worth the price for its quality.

Hard to get build plate adhesion from this brand
Color: 4 Pack Pla Black/White/Red/Blue
With all the good reviews I'm sure I'm doing something wrong as I am quite new to 3d printing. Main issue with this brand for me is the print not adhering to the build plate (Creality Ender 3 Neo with Auto Leveling Kit). Tried multiple tricks to make it stick with very little luck. All my settings ar
e in line with recommended heat ranges/speeds. Still, it just doesn't want to stick. The Sunlu PLA on the other hand takes right off on the exact same settings with zero issues after countless builds. Great stuff. Could I be doing something wrong? Most likely. Still, I'm going with Sunlu from here on out.
