Super nice looking and interesting color!
Such a nice looking interesting color that can elevate the part to art/sculpture visual level. Sparkle catches the eye and hides the majority of layer lines. Awesome line of metallic colors. Metallic red is one of my other favorites. Metallic green and/or purple next. Petg all pretty much prints the same for me. The V400 eats it all up. My advice if you have problems is to suck it up buttercup. It's not a secret and explained all the place online. I never use that crap PLA for anything. It's not tough enough for planet earth. Do you want it to look like shit after a short period of time? Also less brittle and more impact strength than PLA. PETG is coming in an ever increasing wide range of colors and effects. Don't rely only on colors as the main focus anyway. Every design should contain at least a minimal amount of beauty and interest in my opinion. This stuff is great and lets make great (not mediocre ever) things with it! The rose stem in picture above is a TPU BTW. Don't be lazy... If it's worth doing then worth doing do it right!

Great quality
I'm new to 3D printing and this is the first time that I have used this particular filament material. Initially I had several issues with the filament. The issues were it did not want to stick to the 3D printing bed and it would sometimes be stringy during printing which would require me to start over. I was concerned that I received a defective product however that was not the case. I needed to make some adjustments to temperature. Both the temperature of the printhead and the printer bed. Once I did this the product performed perfectly. The color is slightly darker than what I thought it would be according to the photos of the ad. That slight difference in color is of no issue. Just make sure when you are no longer going to use this particular filament that you store it in a vacuum seal bag as this particular filament will absorb moisture easily rendering it useless for 3D printing.

Very fast and aesthetic
First and foremost, this filament definitely needs to be dried. Once dried, it performed amazing. Was printing as fast as 300mms on my Bambu printer with no issues. Great sheen and silver look. My favorite thing about this PETG is how little it oozes and builds up on the nozzle like most PETG is notorious for.

Looks great and prints fast
I used this on my sovol sv08 and was printing at the same speeds I’ve been printing pla at and it turned out great. The color is awesome and looks great once printed

Wet and it's not gold enough
It came quite wet, also the color is more of metallic brown than gold. Samsung mobile camera made it look more gold than it is.

Great Color, great filament but a tad pinkish not deep red.
Prints really well on Bambu lab but takes a very clean print plate for good adhesion. Larger prints a with a bit of pink in the red tone.

Filament came undried
Unfortunately I don’t have a filament dryer & as soon as this arrived and I put it in to run on my flashforge, it had ‘bumps’ & made a noise when it came from the nozzle. I am new to 3D printing but based on what I have read, this means the filament wasn’t ‘dry’ therefore wouldn’t print properly. Color was pretty in person but overall I ended up having to return.

Pretty cool color that prints fairly easily
I've never used FlashForge filament of any type, so this was a first for me even though I've printed a lot of different types of PETG. The filament comes boxed and vacuum-packed with desiccant and wound on a plastic spool. Burnt titianium is an AMAZING color, I was impressed when I saw it! The filament is neatly wound and was pretty dry. While not less than 15% moisture right of the bat, my dryer was able to get it drop within the first 20 minutes so not bad. I will note that I've used High Speed filaments before, and have never seen a label with 2 different ranges of temperatures - very intriguing.As for printing, I started out with my standard benchy STL for PETG, printing with a 235 hot end and 70 degree bed temp. I don't print fast, so I used normal print speeds of 60mm/s perimeters and 200 mm/s fills. As you can see, the benchy came out very stringy - more stringy than normal for petg using my standard print settings. I printed the calidragon using my standard STL file and it also came out stringy. I"m thinking that this spool has a little more moisture than most spools I get and should be placed in a dryer for a few hours before printing.I waited a couple of hours to let the material sit in my dryer, and then started printing some functional parts for an equipment mount along with a fun articulating rhino print. The quality came out MUCH better after drying for a bit.Overall, this is a great filament to work with and I would not hesitate to use again. The color is pretty cool and the quality of the prints is fine once you dry the material. I recommend giving this filament a try if you're a looking for a different color to use.
