- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2025Size: Silk Metal PLAColor: H-silk BronzeVerified PurchaseIt’s a good quality silk pla. I’m using with a Bambu A1 and it works great. Very shiny with a bronze color.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2024Size: Silk Metal PLAColor: H-silk BronzeVerified PurchaseI have been buying quite a variety of filament from Amazon lately. I just got done printing with this one and I was amazed! I had to put it on a reusable spool because the cardboard spools don't work well in my X1-Carbon's AMS, but after printing with it I think this may be the best filament I have ever used.
It is beautiful (Silky metallic bronze) and the print turned out amazing! I can't wait to print more this, and I hope to try out some different colors from eSUN now!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2024Size: Silk PLAColor: J-silk WhiteVerified PurchaseThis is an absolutely beautiful silk white. Prints great and looks amazing.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2024The PLA is very silky and shiny, it prints very easily for silk as well. The color is not a very good representation of silver, though. Unlike the listing image, the silver PLA is more like a shiny light gray. Very light and lacking any of the darkness or depth characteristic of silver metal.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2025Size: Silk Metal PLAColor: E-silk CopperVerified PurchaseOne of the best copper color filaments I have found.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2024Size: PLA Métal Arc-en-ciel SoieColor: A-silk Rainbow MulticolorVerified PurchaseFilament is pretty, but so far the spool has jammed 5 times in 1hr20min, the entire spool is wound badly / cross-wound, so it keep trying to pull filament out from below the current outer layer. WOW, pay the extra money (1st time) to get eSUN and TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED and doubt I will buy it again!
UPDATE: Just saw some of the work-in-progress, HORRIBLE, this is the 3rd one of these big vases I've made with rainbow filament, they come out great when done, this one already looks like CRAP!
The work in progress is the eSUN filament, the BEAUTIFUL completed vase is cheap rainbow filament from Microcenter (their Inland brand name).

- Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2024Size: PLA Métal Arc-en-ciel SoieColor: A-silk Rainbow MulticolorVerified PurchaseI recently tried the silk rainbow PLA filament and unfortunately, I was left somewhat disappointed. While I had high hopes for vibrant, rainbow-colored prints, the actual result didn't quite live up to expectations. The color variation was minimal, and it didn't truly resemble a rainbow hue as advertised. Additionally, I found the quality of the filament to be lacking compared to other PLA filaments I've used. Overall, it's an okay option if you're not too concerned about color accuracy or consistent quality, but it didn't fully meet my expectations.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2025Size: Silk Tri-Color PLAColor: Gold Green BlackVerified PurchaseeSun remains one of the best filament brands i have used. At the best price point, and the quality is great.
I've rarely have had any issues with it, and if I do, it's usually because I need to clean my build plate, or re-level the bed
The plastic spool makes it much easier to use in a Bambu AMS without the concern of long term damage.
I've never run into a tangle issue personally, and haven't had any Clogging issues.

Amazon CustomerReviewed in Canada on July 29, 20245.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic colours, printibility and surface finish
Size: Silk Tri-Color PLAColor: Gold Red GreenVerified PurchaseAfter spending 2 days trying to get a single colour silk filament from another brand to work (still doesn't stick to the build plate), I decided to try this tri-colour instead. I was pleasantly surprised as it took a simple flow rate calibration and pressure advance tuning, and it was working beautifully.
Printed almost half a spool so far, without any issue.
I wish I could say the same for other single colour silk filament brands *cough* polymaker *cough*
I will definitely be purchasing more from this manufacturer
