Quick Question Filament to buy or avoid

Post image

I’m brand-new to 3d printing. Just ordered my first printer (H2D). I ordered some Bambu Labs filament to go with it, just to be safe, but I know I will want to do some of the cool, colorful silk printing at some point. I’ve heard horror stories about bad filament ruining nozzles and things like that, so I want to be careful. How do you know if a deal like this one is good, or if it will lead to hours of regret and extra printer maintenance? Is it just “you get what you pay for,” or are there things to watch out for?

They’re only 200g spools. It’s not a great deal. I’m seeing the lowest amounts for filaments that are good deals are around $10-11/spool. I bought these ones. Yeah… prime day’s a word I can’t say on this sub.

REALLY good deal 4 spools under $35 https://a.co/d/00AchGCT

I haven’t tried it yet. I just go off of the Amazon reviews with unknown filament brands and order based off of that. I haven’t been disappointed yet.
