3DWOX Refill Filament PLA black (Compatible with DP200, DP201, 3DWOX 1, 1X, 2X) , Spool , 1.75 millimeters Diameter

I turned right around and bought 5 more of these in various colors, so I think that speaks well of the product. I have had the printer just around a month and have been printing nearly non-stop (literally non-stop...some of my print jobs are running roughly 16-20 hours each with 2-3 jobs queued behind them) and the printer has been great. A word of warning to those of you who are like me and are uncertain about the differences between ABS and PLA. Yes, there are major differences. And no, I'm not going to go into the technical differences like temperature differences and such. I boil it all down to this:I use PLA because I print out a lot of RPG game tiles, terrain, and miniatures and such. PLA works great for me because it is easy to use and is fairly durable and easy enough to paint when all is said and done. And I find it easier to work with when doing these sorts of jobs. Why or when do I use ABS?I use ABS when I am making parts or larger terrain like buildings. The ABS is extremely durable. And I mean extremely. For all intents and purposes, I could use both equally probably, but I have found that the ABS works best for me with those things that get a lot of handling that does not require great care (i.e. people with clumsy hands, kids, etc.). The ABS was more difficult for me at first when working with the raft and the supports until I started tweaking the software and not using just the basics.Yes, the filament is a bit spendy. But so is everyone else's filament really when you think about it. And they have the cartridge that is $50 that I will need to purchase from time to time when the initial one wears down and the refills need a new housing. But in the meantime these have been great. I have burned through about 3 spools of PLA and 1.5 of ABS without any issues (well, any technical issues. All issues I have had have been due to me, not the filament or the printer).So yeah, I fully say this is worth the cost and a great product. And no, I am not one of those people who got the filament at a reduced price to review it or anything. I paid full price and don’t care.

Prints well, but the filament gets snagged sometimes with lots of clicking sounds. I manually unwound it and wound it onto another spool and it's been working fine since then.

Came as described. Does exactly what its supposed to do.

Here are photos of three different color rolls of BRAND NEW PLA filament. The tangles seem to only get worse farther down into the rolls. I have thrown away three other partial rolls because when I got down to the last 10 or 20 percent left, the filament would just break mid-print over and over. I really like my Sindoh printer. I’ve had it for a year and a half, and the only time I have trouble with it is because of the tangled filament. Sindoh makes you buy their filament to use in the 3DWOX200, which is fine, if it’s quality were as good as they say it is. The filament prints beautifully, if it weren’t for the tangles. I’m just wondering where the QC person is when this filament comes off the line. I own three other non-proprietary printers and order filament from several other makers and never see this problem. It just makes me regret buying a really good printer only to have to pay $30 for rolls of tangled filament that I can buy from someone else for $18.

Twice my prints have failed due to tangled filament. This is the black PLA on my 3DWOX printer. Bought this back in February. I really wish Sindoh could update their software so when this happens (tangled) the print can resume and it doesn't end up being a trashed print.

Excellent Ink

Simply works great.

I've been through many spools of Sindoh PLA and ABS filament since purchasing a 3D WOX 1 about 5 months ago. I haven't had any major issues with the ABS filament, but I have received multiple PLA spools with significant tangles causing failed print after failed print (see attached error message).No amount of extruder head cleaning or adjustments seem to help - the only option is to remove the spool from the printer, unwind 5-10 turns, cut, reload, and cross your fingers. It can be very frustrating to waste time and filament on multiple failed prints due to issues with the filament spool. Hopefully Sindoh will resolve this issue soon.

The black pigmented PLA does not behave identical compared to the white PLA from Sindoh. It tends slightly more to stringing. With identical parameters and g-code there are subtle differences. The layers are also not layed out as precise. It appears that it has a higher viscosity at same temperature compared to white. This makes sense as black radiates heat more efficiently making it colder very shortly after extrusion and therefore more viscous. Perhaps with a higher temperature this effect can be alleviated. I have not yet tried this but I am optimistic as I cant think of any other cause provided the same PLA recipe is used as for the white one.
