ATARAXIA ART Flexible PLA Plus 3D Printer Filament 1.75 mm ,1kg Spool (2.2 lb), Better Than TPU, 89A Shore Hardness, Patented Formula Compatible with Bowden Extruder, Include Resealable Vacuum Bag V2

I was very hopeful for this product. I really wanted to find a product that printed better than TPU because I wanted something with a little more flexibility (I'd had problems with parts cracking). I got this roll of FPLA+ (brown) today and immediately tried it out. I set my bed temp down to 40C as recommended, and set the extruder temp to 200C and print speed to 60mm/s. The print looked ok (a little bit of stringing but I expected that). What I didn't expect was that it adhered so strongly to my print bed. It didn't want to come off, so in addition to letting it cool, I ran cold water over the plate in an attempt to loosen it. That didn't help, and in the process of prying the print to remove it, it actually removed a portion of the PEI coating (textured OEM build plate).EDIT: I decided to try this again on a different printer (the one where it damaged the build plate was an Anycubic Vyper). This time I used my Prusa MK3S+ with a non-factory build plate (also PEI coated). I slowed the print speed WAY down (30mm/s) and kept the bed temp warmer (60C) and it printed fine and was removable by hand. Still learning what setting to use to eliminate excessive stringing but it is doing well enough with a direct drive extruder (rather than the Bowden type of the Vyper) that I just ordered two more rolls.

I've used several colors of wood fillament from this company and it all prints great.

I was able to get very detailed prints using the brown flexible filament, but the print sticks to the print bed and was extremely difficult to remove. Many thinner prints were damaged as the prints stuck to the bed and wouldn't come off. I found a solution to this by layering the print bed with clear, smooth packaging tape.Extruder temp: 195Bed temp: Off

Having been unable to print with tpu on my ender 3, I was eager to try this fpla to see if it would work. I can honestly say I’m extremely satisfied with the product. Even though it took some fine tuning, the fpla worked perfectly on my ender 3!! The prints are incredible, I love how squishy they are. Not only that, but fpla is so strong! Nothing I’ve done can seem to damage or break the prints. I will for sure be purchasing more.

I am a DIY kind of guy and I enjoy designing and printing devices and 3D art. PLA can be a pain and so can TPU but this strikes right between the two solving many of the issues of both. Great quality, very easy to print with, flexible enough but rigid enough for most applications.
