eSUN 1.75mm White ABS 3D Printer Filament 1kg Spool (2.2lbs), White

This is really good filament! It prints really well at 248C, has a smooth finish, and none of that nasty ABS smell. I have used other ABS filaments that really smelled up the house and even had a nasty smell on the piece after it cooled but not this eSUN ABS. The only gripe I really have is that the filament is so stiff it tries to pop off the spool and wrap around something every chance it gets but this is true for ABS in general I think. The spool is also very nice and has holes to tuck the ends in when you finish with it. It will warp on larger or long parts but again this is a trait of ABS in general and not particular to this brand. If you want to print larger pieces without warp I highly recommend the eSUN PETG filament as it gets around those issues.

Esun is well known for their great value for money filament. I had a lot of hiccups to get the printer to print it, it surely doesn’t like some printers, a lot of popping off issues, but once you get to know the perfect settings for it, it’ll print awesomely, at least for $20 filament. I’d recommend it to people who got their time, patience and experience with 3d printing, but not for new comers. So far I used black, blue and pink ABS rolls from esun and it’s fantastic.But always remember that this is a $20 ABS, it’ll give you what $20 filament would give and slightly more.

I’m printing parts for a Voron printer on my CR-10v2, this filament prints excellent. I’m printing at 240c at the hot end and 100c bed at 60mms and 90% flow rate. Most of what I’m printing is 5-6 walls/top/bottom at 60% or more infill, many filaments I have tried fail/deform at high wall/infill settings. Warping has not been an issue at all printing on a PEI spring steel sheet. The color is actually a “cool grey” (blueish) compared to many other grey filaments that are a warm grey tone. Highly recommend.

The color is absolutely true to it's name. It looks like a Hershey bar. Also have had great success with the print quality. The only negative is that is is very tacky and extremely difficult to remove from the print bed. I even broke one of my printer removal tools removing my first print. If you're patient and work your tools very slowly then this is worth it.

This filament works well on my printrbot simple metal, but I've noticed that even though the eSUN filaments come packed in vacuum sealed bags with desiccant packets, both their PLA and their ABS seems to print better after being dried out in a 170-degree oven for 2 hours. Weird. Maybe the amount of desiccant isn't sufficient, or the filaments are starting out fairly damp or something like that.Anyway, the price is right and I don't mind having to dry out my filament once in a while. The white ABS is *very* opaque and white.

It still prints great but something is different, I specifically ordered the abs on the clear roll because I needed it to match some other prints from a roll of esun on a clear roll. What I received was esun abs on a black roll and when printed it is quite shiny when printed at the same parameters as the other roll which would print matte, both rolls were dried in a filament dryed prior to printing and were printed from a dry box with desiccant. On the same printer. Not only that had issues with my order and have it reshipped cause Amazon screwed up. The filament has a Petg like shine to it which is not what I was looking for.

So far, so good. This was not performing well at first using my normal ABS settings (250C with a 100C bed). I was getting distorted corners with some "rolling" traced to a hotter-than-needed print bed. DIaling things down, my print quality has improved considerably. I've found success with a hot end temperature of 230C and bed temperature of 78C within an enclosure. I have an Anycubic I3 Mega with an Ultrabase and an E3D V6 all-metal hot end modification, but find that I get reliable adhesion from a thin layer of glue stick on the base before printing. (It washes off easily with water and a paper towel when finished.)

I use this in a Stratasys Dimension Elite. I have tried several brands of filament on it and while it will print anything abs if no support is needed, not everything works with support. In order to successfully print with supports, the model material needs to adhere to support material and vice versa. This eSun white abs adheres well both ways, using the standard tip temperature of 275°C.The resulting print is somewhat uneven and goopy, for lack of a better term. Perhaps lower or higher temperatures would help, but changing the temperature on this machine is I bit of a hassle.Overall, this product is worth its money despite its imperfections, especially considering that the genuine Stratasys material that is guaranteed to work costs $250/kg.
