Nope.  Just the junky starter spool.

I thought that's all we were supposed to get.  Would be great if they shipped me another spool for all the trouble this printer's been. :-D

What free spool?

Re: Anyone get their free spool of filament yet?

When I requested to cancel my order after the 2nd delay, they said they will compensate me with a free spool of filament for waiting.

I selected a black filament and it was added on to my order.
My order status still says "Status: In Production"

During the $450 price point, they had a special going where you get a free spool of material with any printer purchase. The spool was on the same purchase but shipped separately at a different date.

Re: Anyone get their free spool of filament yet?

when I ordered my Press, I did add an additional black filament. Got my Press with the limited free white spool. yet to received my additional filament. checking my order indicate in production as well, I guess they must be out of stock for black.

The white spool is a starter spool and came with every Press.

Solidoodle were giving away a full spool of choice to complainers and people wanting a cancel orders.

They are just slow.  I ordered a spool of green filament as shown on their website when I ordered my press (first batch)... when I finally received it, it was "pine green" -- a completely different color and not at all useful to me.

I've asked for a replacement or refund, but they won't respond and keep closing my support cases. (EDIT: they did finally respond and arranged for a return.)  Hopefully if you ever receive your black filament it is actually what you ordered.

It seems that green filament is very popular.  Maybe that's why the color changed....

Here's to hoping I get my filament soon and it has a better quality then the stuff that came in the press. Its very brittle, breaks during extrusion and then clogs the extruder head.
