Was: Not for me ... Now: Maybe it is for me .. good customer service matters
I am amending my review to reflect the fact that the marketer reached out, asked if the black and white both had the issue that I mentioned, and said that they would contact their manufacturer to see if they could fix it .. hard to ask for more than thatI have left the original review below. I did some further testing of this with the White PLA and found that I had to print at a fairly high temperature to get the filament to work like some of the others I have used. After a bit of experimentation, I settled on an extruder temp of 225C -- that's really high for PLA, but I got decent results at that temp. The way that I settled on the higher temp was by manually pushing my "usual" PLA through the nozzle, at the "usual" temperature .. then I pushed the Worksteel through at that temperature and noticed that it was much tougher to push. Even at 225 it flows less easily than my usual filaments, but a few test prints suggest that it flows fast enough.Original review ...I am not all that happy with it so far. I would give it 2.5 stars if half-stars were allowed.The prints are more brittle than other PLA filaments that i have used, and the layer adhesion is poor. Maybe if I tune the printing parameters a bit, it will improve, but I have used a few other filaments and this one just doesn't seem to measure up.

Inconsistent
The filament worked for a couple prints. After about 10 prints I noticed that it began to "skip", leaving gaps and choppiness throughout the models. I thought this might just be a bad section in the spool, so I cut about a foot off of the spool and tried again. Exact same results. I have used different filament in between the prints (AIO Robotics) and this is the only one that had any issues. The models using the AIO Robotics filament were flawless.The times that it did successfully print, I was fairly pleased. The only thing to complain about would've been the color. Spots on the prints would be glossy while other parts would be matte.Note: $20 for 1 kg of filament is average and higher quality filament can be bought for the same price (Hatchbox/AIO Robotics).

Hatchbox no more!
Watch out Hatchbox! For all those Hatchbox die hards, this is something to replace it with that has been higher quality than I have seen with Hatchbox. The quality is higher and the price is better. I purchased this for $22.00 and the price vs quality point is perfect.I was very upset to see this out of stock when I was reordering!

Great filament! Works very well with my prusa i3 ...
Great filament! Works very well with my prusa i3 printer.Really good quality for the price as well. I will be buying more of this... just wish there was more than black or white to choose from.
