Have you guys used printrbots filament? 3lbs for $30 sounds like a sweet deal to me.
I bought filament from Printrbot before and it's only 1KG (2.2lbs). The 3lbs. mentioned there is the total weight including the spool.
Ughhh... Thanks. I was excited about that one too...
I wonder where the best quality/price balanced filament could be found then?
After trying Solidoodle and Makerbot filaments, another user turned me onto Octave. $31 for 1kg spools and it is the most consistent filament I've come across. Of course, if you were to spend the time an cash on a Filastruder, THAT would be the cheapest and quality would depend on you.
I like Octave too, except for the white.
For some reason, every roll of white filament I bought from them (4-5 I think) was shrinkwrapped with something that simply wouldn't come off. I usually end up throwing away the first 4-5 layers (about 20-30 meters) due to the shrinkwrap material still being stuck to the filament.
Other colors I bought were just fine, the shrinkwrap simply came of and wasn't stuck to the filament.
Octave stopped using the wrap on all of their filament some time ago. It was a problem with all colors. Used some of the white recently and loved it.
