Typically I would just buy whatever brand had the cheapest white color PLA (I like to paint my print) and quality wasn’t always top of mind. Now I have several prints that I want to do in all kids of different colors and quality matters. Given the new color and quality requirements, it no longer makes sense to get the cheapest.
What brand is of good to excellent quality that also offers a decent range of colors?
I mostly run my prints through Ender 3 Pros
Edit: Thank you for everyone’s suggestions! Certain brands are being recommended often so I’m going to start experimenting with those! Keep being awesome!
Anything locally sourceable. For me it’s a local company called Eureka Technologies that sells filament for a good price, but also in between batch filaments called Random for $8 that’s perfect for prototyping.
Other than that there is a local Canada Computer that sells ANet, Sunlu, and flash forge filament that works well enough.
Which is Natureworks PLA. I suspect a number of the types listed in this thread is as well. Eureka is nice in that they list exactly which source material it is right on the spool. Plus they use cardboard spools with the empty spool weight listed. Brilliant.
