The recommended temperature range is 250' - 270' C, but I found it to be too runny and liquid at 250'C. I've been printing at 240'C with the cooling fan on, on a 100'C heated bed with painter's tape and getting very clean, crisp prints. (see update below) Many people compare the results with PLA, and I would agree -- good detail and shine without warping or stringing.

No discernible smell when printing.

I do have difficulty getting it to stick to the bed, even with the recommended blue tape. It seems very very sensitive to the bed height, more so than ABS or PLA is. It tends to get gummy and stick to the nozzle, so "smashing" it down into the bed surface doesn't work. I'm still fine tuning, but it's definitely not as forgiving as PLA or ABS when it comes to the first layer.

The resulting prints are strong and flexible, even thin walls. It doesn't crack like PLA or develop white stress cracks like ABS. It holds detail like PLA, so it's great for small mechanical parts that need to be strong and precise. It costs about 2x what PLA or ABS costs now, but it does have some of the best aspects of both.

I ordered white but got black....but I decided to keep the black roll.

UPDATE: having a lot of trouble with stringing and sticking....see comment.

Update 2: I did hear back from madesolid and they made some suggestions that helped me dial in the settings. I'm now able to get some very very clean and crisp prints. Here's what's been working for me:
* Avoid any bridging -- print single objects and avoid whole "plates" of multiple objects. Try to minimize support material or disconnected areas.

First let me say that this filament is strong, at least double the strength of normal ABS. That being said, it has a lower melting point so you should be sure to tweak accordingly. I recommend printing on a faster setting, as the filament tends to melt too early and clog your nozzle as a result. I use an UP! mini printer with a resistance temperature mod to allow myself to change temperature on the fly.

It's a hit or miss filament, but when it works its so clean and satisfying, you barely see the layers even at 200 microns.

Terrible ......first off the spool was short... Not the weight/size advertised.
Secondly.... Parts of the filament were tangled and had huge bubbles.
Third the size of the filament was all over the place from 1.72 - 1.55 mm.

Dont waste your money on this product.

This stuff is magical. You do need to have an extruder that can handle the temperature (I liked 260C for this material), but as soon as you find a good temp where the layers bond well, prepare to be amazed. You can beat this stuff up and it won't break. When it finally yields, it seems like it cold flows instead of fractures, which makes it really great for prints that need to withstand shock forces. I printed an entire quad copter frame out of this stuff and not only is it extremely durable but its just gorgeous!! The red is so deep it looks like blood.

The finish is *almost* squishy, almost feels like a very stiff gel. That's the only way I can think of to describe how it feels to the touch. Therefore, it makes very good grips and isn't likely to just slip from your hand (like PLA might).

This stuff holds screw threads like you would not believe. If you over-torque a blind hole, it will just keep on burrowing into the material, it won't split or fracture, but the threads won't strip either. Threads grab so well if you have an undersized hole the bolt will get HOT and then you might never get it back out again! Amazing stuff, I couldn't live without it!

PERFORMANCE
Ok so I'm reviewing the performance first so people wont get the wrong idea by my other observations.
It prints nearly as well as PLA and is nearly as easy to print with, on the exception of a few quarks. First off, it is very stringy. Complex parts or, parts with lots of holes (like say if you were printing a model of swiss cheese) are riddled with strings. Iv'e heard printing hotter will help fix this. But I find that many of my pieces look like they've collected cob webs in a attic for 20 years. I've also had some discoloration issues with red. White works really well for me.

STICKING TO THE BED
If you're printing on glass, do not use blue tape. Just use a glue stick straight on the glass. Very important with longer and larger parts to print with brims. After the PVE glue and the brims, simply use a nuclear bomb to separate your print from the print bed.

OTHER THOUGHTS
It's expensive, nearly 4x what I'm paying for PLA or ABS. It's very strong. A bit heavy, which also means you get less out of the 1lb spool than a normal 1lb spool. Make sure you visit the made solid PET+ printing tips page.

WHY DO I USE PET+?
I'm an engineer, I use PET+ because PLA is nearly useless to me as it cannot withstand hardly any heat. ABS prints like junk, so this is sort of the best of both worlds.

COMMENT IF YOU HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM
Ok so shortly after blowing through a couple of spools my printer was having huge extruding issues. I'm not sure if it's my printer, or if this plastic has jammed my extruder beyond repair. IDK
