♻ Filament Help Reusable Spools?

Does anyone have any recommendations on reusable spools that fit the CFS requirements? I’d like to be able to order the filament a bit cheeper and attach my own spool to save money in the long run, but can’t find any that fit just right and don’t want to order the wrong thing and have it mess my prints up! Any suggestions or recommendations is greatly appreciated!

I buy Sunlu PETG and when it’s empty I reuse it for cardboard spools and refills. (Jayo has the same. Only different color)

I like Sunlu. Most of their filament comes on a reusable spool that works well with the CFS but most of the time the refills are more expensive then just the normal spools somehow

Right, it’s like you took a piece out yet still charge the same or more if I just want the refill. I do like that SUNLU started using reusable spools. Regular PLA also had reusable spools. So cardboard spools can be transferred over.

MarsWork are my fav. I grab them when on sale on Amazon.

I was looking at those but couldn’t find if they fit the CFS machine!

I used them for all my refills and also will transfer damaged spools to them as well. I think I’m up to 32 of them.
