Man this is some great PLA.
Slightly transparent when you use thin walls but for the price this PLA prints like butter. Using a Anet A8 with temps, 205 on the nozzle and 60 on the bed.

filament color is beautiful. A very shiny red
Pros: filament color is beautiful. A very shiny red.Cons: filament is brittle. Very brittle. Every time I have used it the filament has broken off somewhere in the Bowden tube or the extruder. The first print, I got to the printer after it finished and it was sitting there broken. Thankfully it finished. The second time I was pulling it out of the extruder, it broke about an inch from the heatsink. Had to remove the head to get out. Third time it broke 2 inches in the bottom tube. I was able to load another roll of filament and push it through for the next print.I'm not sure if this was a bad batch or bad manufacturer, but I won't use again.

Beautiful color, but breaks easily
I love the color of this filament. It's almost a ruby red, maybe a bit lighter, but definitely not pink. It's very slightly translucent. It prints well at 200C. Unfortunately I feel like I have to drop it a few stars because this filament breaks easily and often. If I leave it on the spool holder after printing, by the next morning it has snapped between the spool and the feeder. Even if I store it in a special dry box with desiccant, the next time I pull out the roll the first foot or so has snapped in a few places during storage. (It's almost like the filament weakens once uncurled off the spool.) Maybe I just got a bad spool, but I have not had this problem with other brands of PLA so far.

Prints perfect, no snags in the roll
Prints perfect,no snags in the roll, overall VERY happy with this filament. I usually print strictly in ABS but decided to use PLA for a big project, and this is perfect. The blue Repko PLA has a very slight opaqueness to it, depending on wall thickness, but that works well for the project I'm using this for, almost looks like a metallic. The red parts for this print are also in Repko PLA (the silver is an aluminum composite filament) and print every bit as flawlessly. Definitely a great bang for the buck!Printed on a home-built I3, on a heated glass bed at 80c, 180c extruder temp

Nothing bad to affect print quality
I've bought many rolls from the same manufacturer. I never had a printing problem. The only reason why it lost 1 star is because apparently they changed their packaging from a normal sized roll to a fat one that isn't as tall. This does not fit my already wide filament holder. Chances are, I won't be the only one with this issue. Also, this roll has a constant twist to it. Nothing bad to affect print quality, I just have to be very careful when I remove it from the machine so it doesn't get tangled.In short, it's good stuff and I will buy from them again however, their packaging is kind of a pain.

Breaks super easily
I had nothing but trouble with this filament breaking shortly after it was unspooled from the roll. It printed nicely if your print was continuous, but let it stop for awhile, even a handful of minutes (I was using it with my Mosaic), and it snaps over and over again.Use it for a single color print and it has no trouble. Which for most folks, would be just fine. But be forewarned, you have to pull it from the printer after each print.

Pretty red, magnificent support!
Gorgeous Red! Just what I needed to print some prints for sale. Initially had some challenges making it print. I contacted support and Tucker helped me out. It turned out that the problem was on my end, but Tucker supported me through the resolution. Ask a question, get a HELPFUL answer. I've already ordered 2 more spools, I am a delighted repeat customer.

nice middle of the road PLA nothing great but nothing bad
ok this and a lot of other filaments hit an issue of not having anything great to talk about and nothing really bad to talk about its not an exciting material on either end of the spectrum I've put it through my ender 2 and 4 as well as my CR-10 and tronxy and it printed fine with all of them the enders final products looking a little better I got it on sale for 15.99 and its worth it but as of writing this review it has jumped to 24.99 and there are filaments cheaper that do better
