Pros & Cons
Pros
First time using petg. Bed temp 90nozzle temp 240. I started with just the classic 240 for the hotend and 80 for the bed and this petg spreads on the plate like creaming on a cake.
Prints looks great, silky and shinny. Retraction settings are key when printing with petg to avoid stringing. The markings on the rolls are also very handy to let you know how much distance/weight you have left on the spool.
Cons
The first spool to advertise non-tangling is my first failed print due to tangling. The other problem/nitpick is that the actual winding of the filament on the spool if very iffy. Not worth your time or money.
At 235 is barely sticks to the bed and at 240 it burns the filament and oozes black charred filament all over your print. Ozing and wrapping is bad. Misleading advertising at best.
Highlights
Quality
Stuff is very sturdy prints well on my bambulab x1
Easy adhesion easy removal no 7 hours to dial in the perfect settings
Parts are very strong and will break across the z axis before losing layer adhesion
Unless printing lightning fast make sure you dry your filament even 12 hours after opening itll start spattering from thee moisture inside
Price
At the duramic prices you can’t beat the performance and quantity of prints
Best filament for price that i have found
Will not hesitate to buy again so long as the price doesnt change once i run these rolls out

Shipping
Excellent customer service they contacted me and did everything to make it work
I quickly took the roll out and tried to untangle it to no avail
Update 29 june 2022duramic 3d reached out to me and sent me a replacement spool
Packaging/appearance
Came as described but was difficult to dial in settings
Came right off glass bed after cooling down but no lifting during print
Competitiveness
I bought the clear one but will certainly buy more if theyre all like this one
Was messing around with a competitors brand of petg filament over the weekend
Could not get the competitors brand to print a good quality print
Night and day compared to polylite petg where i cant seem to figure out how to make it stop stringing like crazy
