Pros & Cons
Pros
This is my first time of using the ic3d brand and i have been pleasantly surprised. Their qa is outstanding and they truly stand behind their product!
Ic3d lives up to their promise. Filament is great, and it's awesome to not have to worry about running out anytime soon.
The price is perfect and the quality is second to none. Worth every penny. Wish it was available all the time for 2 day shipping! I get consistently better results then the hatchbox filament.
Using ic3d 1. In an enclosure. Support a+. Thats what works for me, every time. I know it sounds *, but it works.
Cons
Lowest quality filament above $20/kg that i have personally purchased. Warps terribly. Doesn't work well for me (using flashforge creator pro with pei bed) maybe it's something to do with the shape of drive gear.
Highlights
Quality
It’s still cheap and the quality is amazing
Print quality is the best for the price
The consistency of the quality is what is the major factor here
However what i missed was that the quality you get from ic3d is significantly better than any other filament i tried
Price
Great product great customer service and great price
Ic3d is one of my goto brands
Only issue is slight warping of the edges during printing and the price is a bit high
Shipping
Wish it was available all the time for 2 day shipping
Packaging/appearance
The packaging is well done and the spool is made of good quality
Competitiveness
I have always used makerbot filament but the price has not kept up with competition never has gone down
Never jammed flowed well and didnt smell much as compared to makerbot
On the good side it doesnt seem to have made any visable effect on the prints
This stuff flows may smoother than hatchbox abs but being higher temp it also tends to delaminate easier unless you use a heated enclosure

I used another brand before that had great reviews but it came in wet and was difficult to print

Before every print please deeply clean your buildplate and preheat for at least 30 min

It is slightly wider than most rolls which is a nuisance because it does not fit the standar spool holder of my raise3d n2
