Good value for the money.
This is my first review here. Let's start then. After opening the box and taking filament out of the bag and getting it free from let's call it locking holes where the filament end sits it's just snap/breaks into pieces. That's put me off a little bit. But I have it loaded and stared the print. I have to say the print is so good, no problem with adhesion, first layer was looking good but after some time the filament snapped again, no worries here printer notified me with loud beep. So I resume printing and after about an hour I got the same printer notification. No drama here also. Filament reloaded and print have been resumed. Quality is very good, adhesion good, overall happy with the purchase.

Overture are great
Overture are great, never had any issues with their filament. The cardboard spools can get a little bent if you use vacuum bags to store it sadly. So if like me you have a Bambu Labs AMS its probably better to store it in an air tight box with desiccant when its not in the AMS

Inconsistent and easily broken
I really like the results I got with this filament, it prints very cleanly. No bumps or blockages at all. The only issue I have (which has happened on 4 rolls now) is when you first put the roll on the printer the filament will snap.I've gotten around this by pulling off the first 5m or so of filament and just binning it. Even then it's not enough some times.Edit: I've used about 10 rolls of this stuff now and the last two rolls I've ordered have been awful. They require a much higher temperature to print which meant the prints were very weak. This isn't as good as it used to be, they must have changed the filament. I'll be switching brands now.

SUPERB
brilliant, good value, no problems, bought a few times now, very happy

Prints well enough but has an annoying tendency to try and uncoil itself
Decent filament but it's been wound in such a way as to give it an internal tension that leads to it trying to "twist" itself off the spool.

Shines brighter than anyone else
Price doesn't equals quality, there are plenty of expensive glow in the dark filaments available but after watching CNC kitchens testing on these filaments it was quite obvious that there was only one winner and it was very affordable, Overtures glow in the dark (GITD) filament not only shines the brightest but lasts the longest, the quality of the prints from this filament is brilliant even if you don't want the GITD features, the filament is an off white colour and can be used as is, I have printed some small office planters with this, the finish and feel is a matt and I have yet to find any issues or burnt blobs embedded.

Good but a little funky
I run a local makerspace and have been using this plastic for personal prints for a while. The print quality is good and prints without any stringing on an open air printer. In all the rolls ive used I've never encountered tangled reels, however, I do know from other people this can ocassionally be an issue.My biggest gripe with this filament is its startup oozing. Though this is colour dependant, Black PLA being the most likley to ooze. When the filament is heating up to its print temprature any filament left over from previous prints thats been heated inside the nozzle and allowed to cool inside the nozzle likes to become a burnt gooey liquid that drips out of the nozzle with the consistency of milk. This will drip onto whatever surface is below the nozzle whether it be your build plate or printer chassis. This dripping filament does not harden even when cool, remaining a sticky blob where ever it lands. If you encounter this issue yourself you will need to retract the filament out of the nozzle to allow it to cool away from the nozzle.

May be my new favourite filament
i use this stuff in a Prusa MK3.5 and a Prusa XL, so in a way that means i could use really cheap nasty filament and it'd still print great.I used to buy AMZ3D filament all the time, but it gets hard to buy the genuine stuff at times, especially when i want PETG in colours.I'd seen a lot of people with other 3D printers saying that they were having issues printing things using AMZ3D filament, and when they switched to overture filament it printed perfectly.So i thought i'd give this stuff a trial.Remembering that my printers were already producing near perfect prints with other filaments, this stuff would either be just as good as the other stuff or worse.It's just as good if not ever so slightly better,I regularly print things with long unsupported bridges, and never use supports for holes on vertical surfaces,This filament bridges just as good as any other filament, but showed slightly better formation of round holes in vertical surfaces.This review applies only to this particular 'Black PLA'i will be ordering some other colours as i use up my other stuff, and i'll be trying PETG soon.Right now most of the overture filaments are selling for about £16 a kilo, this is cheaper than most other filaments i use, and it seems like there is a good supply of this stuff.I make sure to find out who is the official seller of each filament i buy then stick with them, as there are fakes of almost every filament about.

Excellent Filament for My Anycubic Vyper
The OVERTURE PLA Filament is a perfect match for my Anycubic Vyper 3D printer. It’s an economical choice that delivers on quality, and I’ve had no issues using it. The material seems to be exactly as advertised, with consistent diameter and good tolerance, which is crucial for smooth printing.I’ve been able to achieve great print results, and I attribute the success to a combination of the printer, slicer settings, and this reliable filament. It doesn’t detract from the quality of the prints at all, which is why I’m giving it 5 stars. If you’re looking for a cost-effective filament that performs well, I highly recommend this one.

Beautiful color, very clean printing
I’m an art teacher getting back to my roots of being an artist. I am transitioning from working in wood and clay to 3D printing. So the pictures are of an original piece.Enough about me, this is amazing PLA. I used it for a small piece prior to this project and it did well, but since my printers are in the garage and the humidity is a bit high. I choose to run it through the filament dryer. It gave me incredible results. I printed on the Ender 5 plus, at 80mm/sec, .16 layer height. The layer lines are very minimal, and I got a few zits and blobs which were very easy to brush off. The color is a matte finish, a very striking color. I loved this filament and will be using it again.

Great for beginner
This stuff is so easy to use. I'm a noob so I know nothing. I do know that this and the white one work awsome on an adventurer 4 at 200% speed at 220 on the hot end 60 on the bed. 100 on the fan. It looks better at regular speed. Wanted to see if it could do it . And it can

No drips, no runs, no errors
Both rolls of filament printed just fine. There weren’t any abnormalities or clogs caused by the PLA. All supports came off nicely and what residual filament was left, was easily sand down. Color didn’t matter here, as I was having armor printed for cosplay. All of it was to be sanded, textured and painted. The random colors were irrelevant in this case. I just didn’t get any pics prior to sanding, priming and painting. But the colors were nice. The red was vibrant and green was like a Kelly green, maybe slighter darker. Long story short, this PLA is good to work with.

Never Had A Problem With Overture Filament
Always use Overture to benchmark my printer as it's extremely consistent and prints very smoothly! Finished parts look great and I've literally never had a jam.
