Don't rush in to dismiss a bad filament like i Did
I have a a Flashforge Adventurer 3. Love this machine after printing a spool holder over a year ago to upgrade it from 500g to the 1kg spools.Only PLA filament i have ever had issues was with a single dark wood filament that just burnt and blocked the nozzle. Yes had to tweak a few other settings for PLA. And yes also had to fiddle more to get PETG to print nearly well. So back to this filament, Loaded it up stuck with the normal PLA settings. And OMG what a mess. Bad bed adhesion, layering, bubbling Stepper knock. Tried to dial it in. But despite my best efforts, results were no better.What was all going on? So what is different from my other PLA prints? I have experience and solve issues, can't solve this one. So never used this brand before. First conclusion. Bad filament, it was cheap, no wonder! Well no, there was another difference. For me this was the first roll of filament that came on carboard roll. Yay i can sleep at night knowing my old used plastic spools can rest in hell. My new cardboard one is going to save the planet. Sorry i digress . Well long story short. In my case the 1KG adapter for my Flashforge allows the side of the spool to rub against the housing of the printer. No problem when it's plastic against plastic. But cardboard against plastic depending on the position of the filament on the reel. Can tension and slacken the filament. And with the issue with the weak stepper motor on a Adventurer 3. This was enough to completely show all the different signs of a poor filament. So once i figured this out and printed a plastic insert for the cardboard spool. This stuff prints amazing. Hope it was worth reading this review to then end.

Prints nicely and has great silk finish
As you can see from the pictures I have printed with a fair amount of this already, it seems to adhere to the bed with out issues, printing on a glass bed with out any glue or anything just a nice clean bed. Using standard PLA setting it prints ok without any problems, the silk finish is very nice and the shade of white is good. Spool is very nicely wound without any snagging or jamming.

Beautiful colour
The file filament from overture was great. I was printing a mask face which required a lot of supports. It copied well and the mask looked amazing at the end of the print. I did find it quite brittle and when printing the higher levels of organic supports, it did snap... Luckily though it didn't affect the print too much!Overall, great experience.Printed at 212 degrees with a 0.4mm nozzle.

Good low cost filament
PROs: Low cost, cardboard spool, excellent finishCONs: None foundBought this filament in matt pink and matt blue to print moneyboxes for the grandkids. I was a little cautious because of the low price for 1kg but after good results went on to buy more Overture colours and I'm just as impressed with those. The matt colours are a good low-sheen finish and the silk provides a wonderful shiny print.Don't be put off by the price tag - this filament worked well for me and consistently through the reel and across different reels.The pictures are of the matt pink, matt light blue and silk blue filaments.

useless
No layer adhesion and stringing. What did come off the print bed was brittle and crumbled in my hands.

Nice color, print hotter
Color (Yellow) is amazing, this PLA must be printed hotter than other PLA I normally use, like AMZ3D for example. Once I got the temp dialed in it is working very well with almost no stringing.

Great sample pack for full FDM printers
This was a really great sample pack. I wanted different examples of Overture filament colors and this was perfect. The strands are long enough for a Calibration Cat with a little left over, and that's it. I'm kind of sad I can't print more than that, but hey, a rainbow of Cali Cats on my desk will be fun.Also, side note, the gold is as brittle as other silk filament brands. I cleanly snapped the tail off to test its strength and as I expected it didn't take much. It's very pretty though and on thicker parts it works fine :)I print at 200 degrees with a 50 degree heated bed, on a Neptune 2S, and like my other Overture filament, it printed clean and smooth.
