250 g. Blueberry FlexiSMART 1.75 mm Flexible filament TPU for 3D Printer - Flexible filament for 3D printing - TPE filament, TPU filament, elastic filament

Pain in the butt to print with as I keeps getting out of the extruder but if you put a piece of ptfe tubing between the gear and hole of where this filament goes there is no space for it to come out. Great quality though. Keep in mind to supervise your print with this material. Has the tendency to leak out the extruder when you haven’t blocked it off!!!

After having some issues with TPU (specifically Flexfill 98A) on my Prusa i3 MK3, I decided to try some 'newer' flexible filaments that claimed to be easier to print. Whilst the Flexfill took me dozens of failed prints & hours of frustrating tweaking to find even semi-reliable settings, this FlexiSMART printed fine first time & every time after just with the settings on their Website. I find that it is noticeably softer/more flexible than Flexfill & than rigid.ink Flexible PLA, which can either be a benefit or a drawback depending on what you're printing - the photo is a GoPro Session case which I can easily squash the opposite sides together until they touch, whilst with Flexfill & Flexible PLA there is a lot more resistance. The quality of the finish is better toward the lower end of the quoted temperature range for me (I've taken to printing at 200 degrees).

Not very good to print with on a CR10S, also colour can change in the print it goes a deeper purple

Filament is good quality and is supported by a good data sheet.However, this is more pink than it is "blueberry". I wanted something more purple/blue, but when printed, it's pink. Disappointed as I would have picked another colour if I'd have known it wasn't as described.

GREAT STUFF-I bought this for my first roll of Flexible filament because it was fairly cheap and I was curious to see how my printer handled it, and I'm really really impressed with it.I kept my temps at the same as I would with pla (195)and slowed it down to 35mms. I had no issues with clogging, bed adhesion, retraction and the finish was smooth.I'll definitely buy some more in the future 😀

Filament worked with temps advised with no issues at all, would purchase again

good

Fantastic product. I created a slicer profile to print at a nozzle temp of 220 and a heated bed at 65. Adhesion was perfect and final finish was amazing. I use a Creality CR-10 and used an extruder modified for printing flexible filament (Search on Thingiverse) and this allows the filament to be pushed into the bowden tube with hardly any gap to provide an 'escape' route. Print speed was set to 35mm/s so the print took longer but a slower speed gives a much better chance to extrude flexible filament without problems. Having said that it might well work at higher speeds but I didn't want to risk it.I have two different colours of this filament and will definitely buy more. Well deserving of five stars. If anyone gives less than five stars I imagine it is because of their slicer settings, which is why I have included some of mine.
