This TPU filament works amazing with my Creality Ender 3, I didn’t have to change any settings except set the material to generic TPU in Cura. The prints are strong and very flexible, exactly like I wanted.I like things made of TPU, but it's not my favorite filament to print with. I initially used Ninjatek TPU, but it's ridiculously expensive. Then I went to Priline. Now? JAREES TPU 3D Filament 1.75mm,Black TPU.I'm not a TPU printing expert. Now that I have that out of the way, I'll let you know that I AM extremely experienced with PLA, ABS, and PETG, so I can generally spot and correct temperature, speed, and retraction problems. I've used NinjaTek and PRILINE TPU in the past, so my observations with Jarees are relative to those other spools.I use the Jarees in my Ender 3 S1, and used a Cura-based slicers. I tried the default TPU 95A material profile in Cura, and got started with my benchmark prints. Prints at .12mm, 25mm/s (wall) & 50mm/s (infill), 200C, and 60C (bed) came out very stringy. I ended up settling on 215C. Layer bonding on thin walls, which is the only bad issue I've ever had with TPU, wasn't a problem on these settings. I can't quite get a really smooth vertical finish on my parts yet. I don't think that's a filament problem, since the NinjaTek was that way for me, too.At $22, the Jarees is considerably cheaper than my normal TPU. RecommendedI'm an experienced 3D printer, but I'm new to using TPU so it's difficult for me to rate this vs. other filament brands. The cardboard reel was neatly wound and vacuum sealed. After some tweaking of my printer settings I was able to get a decent result.TPU is tricky to print due to the flexible nature of the material, so printing success can vary widely based on the user's experience, the printer, temperature settings, the design of the object being printed, etc. It also requires you to get in and adjust your settings for speed, extraction, the tension of your drive feed, and a few other things - I'd suggest reading or watching a guide if it's your first time printing TPU. It's more complicated than PLA.So all that said, your results could be much different. But as long as you know that going in and are willing to experiment, I would recommend this TPU (based on my admittedly limited experience).I hope this review was at all helpful, and I will update it if my experience with the product changes and/or as I become more familiar with it.Like most filament, you will need to dial in your printer to get good results with this TPU. Start by printing a temp tower and retraction tower. If you don't know how to do this, search YouTube for "temp retraction tower". All TPU can be very stringy so it is important to get it dialed in and these two towers will get you close. You don't need a direct extruder with TPU 95A either. I print it on my stock Ender 3 with pretty good results. Good luck and have fun.I am using this on a stock Creality CR10-S and the print quality was satisfactory. I did have to tweak the settings a little from the Cura Generic TPU 95A to have a higher extrusion and slightly higher temperature. I am using this to make straps and flexible handles, so I needed to have minimal porosity and maximum layer adhesionPrinted objects have a soft, slightly squishy feel to them when printed with Jarees 3D printer Filament. The objects I have printed with other filaments are stiff. It is nice to have this option for printing. The material is great for small toys/objects. The filament loads and purges smoothly into my printer. The roll unravels evenly and does not tangle. The filament works best between 190-230 degrees Celsius. The black color has a semi shiny appearance to it. The filament came packaged protectively.The settings were a bit rough to get right but a big part of that might be due to the temperatures I'm at. Once the settings were right, all the prints came out easy and without issues. Took maybe 5 hours of a bunch of small test prints to get it done though, I had to slow down the filament feed rate to get it to work on my printer.I can’t say much else other than it prints fine. What you would expect from TPU. It seems close to the same shore rating that I used to in TPU.
