Best 3D Printing Filament of 2026

"I've been using this filament for a while and it's proven highly dependable. The 1.75 mm feeds smoothly with no tangles or jams, and the print quality stays consistent with strong layer adhesion and a clean finish. I typically print at around 200–210 °C, and it works well on both glass and textured beds. The spool arrives vacuum-sealed and neatly wound, making it easy to store. For the price, it's quality PLA that's ideal for daily prints and functional parts. I'll definitely buy it again."

"After getting my Bambu Lab printer, I was cautious about trying anything besides their own filament, but Sunlu exceeded my expectations. The quality is top-notch, with low moisture content and the perfect orange color I wanted. The filament's texture and diameter fit my printer perfectly. I’d absolutely recommend Sunlu for anyone's printing projects."

"I run my Bambu P2S 24/7, so reliability matters to me. This filament prints beautifully, flows as expected, and requires no special slicer adjustments. The packaging was secure, and I've had no issues with tangling or delivery damage. It’s easy to use and store, making it a filament I’ll purchase again."

"I picked up this glow-in-the-dark PLA for a Kurama print, and it nailed the color I wanted. The glow is strong, and setup was a breeze—my AMS took it without adapters. After some tweaks (thanks, ChatGPT), the results were great. The transparent spool with a built-in meter is a step up from others. If you're new to glow PLA, it takes a little patience, but the end result is totally worth it."

"I've lost count of how many times I've bought this filament. Every roll brings a wave of silky, vibrant tri-color prints—my kids and their friends love the skeleton dinos I make. These prints aren't just pretty; they're tough enough for daily play. The tri-color gradient is eye-catching, and my printer never complains when this filament is loaded. For collectibles or gifts, this filament is pure magic."

"I was hesitant at first because it's a bit pricier than other brands, but after trying several colors from Amolen, I'm hooked on the quality. The blue, teal, and coral blend is unique—overhangs print clean, and adhesion is solid with a textured plate. With minimal stringing and no sagging, my complicated articulated bird print came out nearly perfect. I'll definitely be back for more colors."

"I've found Overture filament to be reliable and consistent, even if it might not be considered the absolute highest quality out there. I've never experienced clogs, and the filament is visibly uniform and flexible. For me, it's a solid, cost-effective alternative compared to pricier brands."

"After using several Overture filament products, I realized that any issues I had were probably from my own handling, not the filament itself. Their PETG, in particular, has been fantastic. The filament is consistent and high quality, and even with a roll that was poorly wound, I just rewound it and everything worked perfectly. I've upgraded my rating after having a lot of success with other Overture products."

"I always get great quality prints when my 3D printer is dialed in with Overture filament. This isn’t my first time buying it, and it definitely won’t be my last. Consistency and print results keep me coming back."

For anyone seeking a reliable and high-quality PLA, this is a top pick. I'll definitely be ordering more in the future."

"As someone new to 3D printing, I was wary of cheaper filaments, but this one turned out great. I've had zero issues with clogging, and the quality and amount you get for the price is impressive. I use it with my Dremel printer, and even though I have to re-spool it, it's been totally worth it. Highly recommend for hassle-free printing."

"I've run several rolls through my Bambu AMS Lite and haven't had a single jam. The spools are neatly wound and ready to go right out of the box, and the prints come out looking great. The only thing is the white isn't as bright as some other brands, but it's still a clean, solid color that's perfect for functional prints. Great value overall, especially for a two-pack."

"I've found the eSUN PLA Basic Filament to be a solid choice for everyday printing. The color is bold and vibrant, and prints come out smooth with clean layers and very little stringing. Even when running at higher speeds, the filament feeds reliably and sticks well to the bed. I also appreciate that it doesn’t have a strong odor during printing and post-processing is a breeze. For the price, it’s a dependable and budget-friendly option that I’ll keep coming back to for general projects."

"For me, eSUN PLA has become my go-to filament since I started 3D printing. I love the variety of colors—they always have what I need. The filament feeds perfectly, maintains a uniform color, and the texture is great. Even if the spool gets twisted, it stays flexible and manageable. I own several colors now and have been consistently satisfied with the quality."

"I've had some minor challenges with bed adhesion and noticed my spool wasn't wound perfectly, which caused a few pauses in printing. However, cleaning the bed helped, and most issues seem adjustable with settings. The price is great for what you get, so if you’re looking for an affordable filament and don’t mind a bit of tweaking, this could work well for you."

"I've tried a lot of PLA+ brands, but ELEGOO's filament stands out for its reliability and print quality. The color is bold and survives post-processing, and I had no need to change my usual printer settings. Adhesion and feeding are both flawless, and the finished prints look clean with minimal visible lines. For the price, it's hard to beat—a high-value, dependable filament that I'll definitely use again."

"After running through two full kilograms of ELEGOO PLA Plus, I'm convinced it's my new go-to filament for strength and precision. The dimensional accuracy is professional-level and I haven't experienced a single jam or clog. The black is a deep matte and the toughness of finished parts is a real upgrade over regular PLA. With the value offered for two spools, this filament is now a permanent fixture in my workshop."

"I've printed several projects with ELEGOO PLA+ on my Bambulab X1C, and the results are consistently strong and durable. Minimal stringing, smooth feeding, and great adhesion make it easy to produce detailed and precise models. Honestly, it's become my favorite PLA+ filament for high-quality prints—highly recommended for anyone with a Bambulab or similar printer."

"I've relied on this filament for a while and it’s been very dependable, with smooth feeding, excellent layer adhesion, and a clean finish. I appreciate how well it performs at standard PLA settings and the vacuum-sealed packaging was a great touch. For the price, it’s a high-quality option for everyday printing."

"I was initially hesitant to use anything besides my printer's brand, but Sunlu pleasantly surprised me. The filament delivered precisely the color and texture I wanted and worked perfectly in my mini printer. It arrived well-packaged and had no moisture issues. I’d definitely recommend Sunlu for anyone’s 3D printing needs."

"As someone new to 3D printing, I appreciate the variety and fun color effects in this filament pack. Some prints are stripy, others are smoothly shaded, and the glow-in-the-dark options are a hit with my kids. Each print feels unique and the rainbow color is especially cool—though it takes a while for the color to shift during printing."

"Their customer service really stood out to me—they promptly answered my questions and provided great support. The colors look amazing and my prints came out great. The only downside is the sample rolls are pretty small, so keep that in mind if you have bigger projects."

"I've been using SUNLU PLA+ 2.0 for a while now, and I’m thoroughly impressed by how smoothly it extrudes and how reliable the print quality is. The details are sharp, the surface comes out smooth, and there's virtually no need for post-processing. What really stands out to me is the strength and durability of the prints—parts feel much sturdier than with regular PLA. Plus, the color consistency and perfect spool winding make the entire process hassle-free."

"For all my print jobs, SUNLU PLA+ 2.0 has become my go-to. The filament feeds effortlessly without tangling, and extrusion is extremely consistent from start to finish. Every print I make has strong adhesion and a flawless surface finish, with no warping or stringing issues. It’s an excellent value for the quality, and I’ve had zero problems—definitely planning to restock for future projects."

"I run this filament across several printers, including my H2Ds and A1 Mini, and it’s absolutely flawless, even at high speeds.
