Flashforge ABS Pro Filament 1.75mm Black, ABS+ 3D Printer Filament,1kg Spool(2.2lbs),Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02mm,Upgraded Strength Heat Resistant Filament,Excellent Toughness

This black PLA Pro filament is fantastic. I am using it in an Adventurer 3 and it prints absolutely great. Nice sheen to the finished prints - will definitely buy again.

Prints fine, no issues but is a bit lighter than it looks in the pictures.

After finishing off a roll of another brand's Black I was looking for something a little different but also, not, brightly coloured. That's when the Flashforge sparkly black filament caught my eye.I'm relatively new to 3d printing so far having printed with 'printer's PLA tester orange', a well known brand's black + white, and a lesser known brand's translucent PETG yellow. All the PLA printed fairly well but the PETG was a disaster.After finishing off my last brand roll, I switched over to the FF Galaxy Black. I reviewed the heating instructions and noted it had a melting point of 50c and lower end range of 190c (slightly lower than the other brand PLA I was using before). So I tweaked my slicer settings and put the new filament in my curer for 5 hours at 45c to ensure there was no residual moisture going to affect print quality.Immediately it started stringing and wouldn't stick and panic struck. Why was PLA going wrong when I'd had no problems with my other rolls mere minutes earlier??I immediately knocked my Z down 0.1mm and tried the same print again, voila, problem solved. That's a first!Normally it takes me ages of faffing, with this filament, 1 print and I've then had zero problems with subsequent prints.I showed my other half, my first print and the reaction was "ooh that looks nice, it's sparkles!" which is amazing given it was a kitchen towel for an Ikea rod I grabbed from thing verse which I'd printed (pictures attached of two different varieties, neither matched what I needed, so I am still working on it in Fusion360, will re-upload once I'm happy with it).So first impressions are very good, both from me, and a non-3d printer person. Very easy to dial in. Good adhesion. Can't comment on 'sheerness' amazon, it's a black filament?!I did read on a group somewhere that 'sparkly' filament can cause issues with the hot end or something so maybe something to be aware of and keep an eye out on, if you run lots of rolls of this kind of filament, perhaps? But no problems for me thus far, from the 4-5 prints I've done so far.Would I recommend this to a friend?YesWould I buy this again?YesAnything else to add?It'd be cool to have a white or cream with sparkly silver bits in it, like the newer marble counter tops you see. Get on it, Flashforge R&D team!

got this to use with my flashforge adventurer 3 using and external dry box i have made.It loads and prints great with no stringing or failed prints so far.The reel sides are slightly thicker than other makes but should fit fine on all roller type filament spoolers.

So far a great filament but the colours are just amazing and I need to print everything in it from now on...

It is a great product the only reason for 4 stars is it was recommended with a printer and it didn't fit on the reel

Product arrived in good condition. Printed well on my ender 5 pro and my cr10s haven’t seen any issues with it yet.

FF's PLA is bar none the best PLA I have used, it's not that bad price wise, can be picked up on offer frequently, fits perfectly on the Creator spool holders, sadly not on the Adventurer 3 (But it will on the 4). I am a firm believer that PLA is PLA and it all prints alright once you have the settings down, but this stuff will just print fine even with wonky settings.Just like Flashforge's other glossy PLA, it's slightly translucent, so double up on walls if you don't want it to look weird. Flashprint's default PLA settings are fine, maybe drop it down 5 degrees, the usual. Cura's "generic" PLA settings are fine as long as you change the default retraction speed, but if you're using a FF printer with Cura you probably already know all this.
