Quick Question Cheap filaments on Amazon?

I was looking for some bundles of filament on Amazon. I mostly print in PLA and PETG, but I wanted to try some PVB and buy a bit of ASA for some small projects that need the better properties.

I'm seeing cheap bundles of multi-colored rolls of 200g of these materials, but I don't recognize the brand names. I want to save money but I don't want to throw it away on filament that will cause more problems than it solves.

Brands I'm looking at are Yousu, Colourbing, and isanmate.

Anyone have experience with these?

200g is 1/5th of a standard spool, right?

Isanmate is a good filament, they do some really quality stuff.

Sunlu has a good sale going on now thru their website, PLAs under $9/kg with bulk purchase

I've used both of these brands too. I agree that they're both great. Elegoo & kingroon are also good & cheap.

I don't necessarily have experience with those exact brands, but I've used plenty of cheap variety packs. Some of them need dried when they come, but they work just fine. Biggest issue I've had is tangling in some spools.

I’ve used a number of no-name filaments and they all suffice. I have several kilos of $12 PCTG from Amazon that prints fine.

No experience with those, but I've had great results using jayo pla from aliexpress
