eSUN PLA Basic Filament 1.75mm, 3D Printer Filament High Speed PLA for Fast Printing, 1KG Spool (2.2 LBS) 3D Printing Filament for High Speed 3D Printers, Fire Engine Red

Bright, Reliable, and Easy to Print – Great Everyday PLA
I’ve been using this eSUN PLA Basic filament (Fire Engine Red) for several prints on my Bambu Lab A1, and I’m very pleased with the results. The color is exactly what I hoped for—a vivid, bold red that really pops on finished prints. It’s perfect for decorative models, toys, or anything that needs a strong visual impact.Printing performance is solid. It feeds smoothly, adheres well to the bed, and has very minimal stringing. I’ve been printing at around 200°C with a bed temp of 60°C, and haven’t had any clogs or layer adhesion issues. This filament isn’t “premium,” but it does exactly what it promises—consistent quality and reliable results for everyday projects.It’s also worth mentioning that it doesn’t have a strong smell during printing, and it’s easy to post-process if needed (sanding, painting, etc.). If you’re looking for a no-fuss, budget-friendly filament for general use, this one is a great pick. I’ll definitely be ordering more colors from eSUN in the future.

the Good, the Bad and the Ugly
So I wanted to give a full review after actually trying this filament.The Good: The price is fair for what you get and a the quality is so-so, but if you plan to only print small things and or are watching your printer every 30 mins, it’s fine for the $12 sale I got it for. I bought 2 rolls and this one *did* come vacuum sealed, the other color of the same brand was seal but not vacuum tight.The Bad: There isn’t consistency on how well this filament sticks to my build plate. the first small connector piece I had to pry it off with tools it was stuck so bad, the very next print the tree supports straight up didn’t stick. You aren’t guaranteed the vacuum seal will be in the bag. Also, the spool is VERY inconsistently wound. Meaning there will be snags and I have to watch this like a hawk every 20 min or so, which, for small prints is ok, but big prints will be a nightmare.The Ugly: like above, it doesn’t consistently stick and even if it does there isn’t always consistency with how much PLA extrudes from the tip while it’s printing. It was a fresh spool out the box and it’s more fickle than some of my 5+ old open spools I use to for test prints. I had it bird nest twice on me, and thankfully caught it early enough, but it’s gonna be a headache if that’s the quality of the whole spool.Again, I’m still giving this 4 stars just because of the price. if it’s on sale for the $12 or less, I feel like it might be worth the gamble if you’re cheap like me. It has penitential to work for people just fine, especially small and simple prints. Think like if you need a test-print spool you don’t care too much about. but there is little to no quality control from spool to spool. You just have to get lucky.

Quality filament at great prices!
eSun makes a great product! Generally cheaper-priced than the other brands. They do use cardboard spools so if you’re not a fan then go with another brand. Other than that I’ve purchased quite a few of the eSun filaments of various colors and they’ve all been spot on according to the Amazon pictures.Would definitely recommend this brand!

Low price because it’s cheap
Great price but I’m having some teething problems in my Bambu P1s. I bought the green and blue but have only printed the green so far.The green is having some minor adhesion problems. Seemed to get fixed after an alchohol wipe of my PEi plate. Also experiencing some stringing which I’m sure can be fixed in setting but hasn’t happened with other matte pla. My printer is also treating this filament like it’s wet even though it’s straight out of the packaging and into the AMS. And finally it’s seems a little sticky. A little like petg but only a little. Sticks to the poop chute now and then after color change and there’s usually some dangling from the nozzle too.Then the winding onto the spool seems a little off. It has bound enough to pause printing 3 times now. Slowing my whole workflow WAY down.I don’t think I’ll buy it again and I’m considering returning the unopened blue I bought.I don’t think this is good product if you’re trying to print and make $. But it’s also not good for a beginner who won’t know what to do with these problems.Probably not worth the low price

I’ve been really impressed with the eSUN PLA Basic filament. The 1.75mm black spool has been consistent from start to finish, with excellent dimensional accuracy (I haven’t noticed any jams or clogs). Prints adhere well to the bed, layers bond smoothly, and the finish comes out with a clean matte look that hides layer lines better than many other brands.The spool itself is neatly wound, making it easy to load and run at higher speeds without tangling. I especially appreciate that this filament strikes a nice balance between strength and ease of printing—perfect for both functional parts and decorative projects.Compared to other brands I’ve tried, this eSUN PLA is reliable, affordable, and produces great results with minimal tweaking. Definitely a go-to filament for everyday printing.Pros:Consistent diameter and flowStrong layer adhesionSmooth surface finishEasy to print, even at faster speedsAffordable and reliableCons:Like most PLA, not ideal for high-heat applicationsOverall, highly recommend for anyone who wants a dependable filament for their 3D printer.
