Good for a novice
I'm using a Creality Ender-3 V3, which is a newer model. I did my research on filament types, most say PLA does everything and PET-G is more challenging. My experience has been the opposite.I bought Creality branded PLA (rainbow color) and had some good prints. But it had its share of issues. That filament is quite stiff and on at least a couple occasions it stopped spooling because it got twisted up on itself on the reel, and it's not flexible enough to pull itself off the next winding. What caused me to abandon this filament is it broke off inside the print head once causing a lot of aggravation and having to disassemble the print head. I suppose that's part of 3D printing, but I need something reliable.Swapped to this PET-G and so far it's a set and forget filament. Start a 4 hour print, come back four hours later and it's done with no drama. It does have some very light stringing at times, but it's a lot more flexible filament that comes off the spool flawlessly. No perceptible fumes, zero issues. It's also a more glossy finish which looks a lot better than PLA in my opinion.The only drawback I see is that it prints slower and it needs a hotter nozzle and bed temp (250C / 70C respectively). On the textured bed that came with my Ender-3 V3, I've had no problems with adhesion, even on tall objects. Simply put, my son and I love this filament for its ease of use and quality of the prints.

Amazing, consistent quality at a great price
This filament is highly underrated. I bought a couple rolls of matte gray to try out and this brand is all I buy now. The rolls are so neatly wound and prints come out smooth and clean. No tangles. No bubbles or breaks.Excellent color selection. I've ordered five colors so far and there are 50 to choose from.The spool fits nicely on Bambu AMS and the are easy to wind with other filament if you want to reduce empties.Highly recommend

Fantastic results with the first spool.
Updates: So, I just used up the last of my spool of 3DHoJor PLA Pro grey and have loaded another spool but in white to my other printer. I must say that while it prints as I would expect, the quality control was not as thorough on this spool. after I'd used the first 60 meters or so of the spool, I started seeing spots on the spool where it had been coiled to loosely which resulted in kinks in the filament. One such kink got stuck at the opening in my filament dryer and almost caused a problem as the dryer had lifted off of the table. Fortunately I saw this and paused my print to correct it.Another kink later on caused the filament to break at the extruder and completely jammed up my printer. I had to completely take my extruder/bowden tube assembly apart to correct this. As far as dimensional accuracy goes. The second, white spool is a bit out of spec. Not wildly out of spec, but it seems to vary enough that there are obvious inconsistencies across larger print surfaces. It's still great filament for the price you pay, but I would not recommend this for you high quality finish prints anymore.I will be purchasing more material from this company though, because I understand that small inconsistencies like this happen in a manufacturing process that is trying to keep up with customer demand and I can't beat the price on a recyclable spool.

Works pretty good!
I use this with a Snapmaker A350. I recommend having some spare nozzles, as petg can clog and require cleaning. (This brand doesn't clog any more than any other petg I've used.). The filament has been much better compared to some others I've used. This brand also stands up to not being dried very well. I'm a bad print human and leave my printer and filament sitting in an unfinished garage in Florida. I've let this filament sit for a month on the holder, out to the garage elements, and it still prints without popping or major clogging. I'm sure it would print even better dry. I print it up to 80mm/s, 35mm/s initial layers, and it does great for what I need. I can recommend it.Con: my roll seems to have an overlap and sometimes binds up, requiring some babysitting. I do not know if that was my own doing during prints or if the roll came that way. But I've let it go for hours and come back to good prints, so it hasn't been a huge issue. I'd rate it 5 except for that.

Worked great for cheap
I usually print with Polymaker or Atomic PLA. Atomic produces some great company but it's around $32 a spool. You get what you pay for. At $12 for this stuff, I couldn't resist. I print a lot for my students and wanted something inexpensive. It prints great on my Anycubic printer at 200mm/s (base setting) sticks great at 30mm/s initial layer. 210 deg with 60 deg bed. .30 layer height, which is course for me. The blue thing is a pen blank for a student. Not complicated but there would be some artifacts at this speed of the PLA wasn't up to the task. Some stringing at this temp on other prints but not worth changing my settings for. Very strong layer adhesion at this temp. It's like solid plastic. Color was vibrant even though it looks dull on the spool. Spool was not perfectly wound but seems to be fine. The matte black benchy came out perfect as far as I'm concerned. I mostly print in polyterra matte black. May just switch to this. I would recommend regardless of price, but price makes it a no-brainer.

Dusty filament clogs, won't adhere
UPDATED: Amazon sent a replacement spool, and it looked clean and nice so I thought I'd try it again even though I had spent a long time cleaning the mess from the first one. It printed perfectly, like all my other spools have so I think i just got a bad one originally, but what a mess that one made. so check it carefully, and watch the print the first dozen layers or so to make sure there isn't a problem and you should be fine.ORIGINAL:Out of box I noticed particles all over the filament. I assume that's the problem because it won't adhere and just rides up nozzle. Tried 3 prints, none stuck at all to the bed. Completely encased nozzle. Finally cut it enough to expose nozzle, tried one of my other filament to see if nozzle or bed was bad and it printed just fine with this crappy filament still stuck on the nozzle. Never had a problem with any other filament. Loved the color, am really sad it's so dirty.
