In this review the Comgrow 6KG PLA 3D Printer Filament is evaluated for hobbyists and small workshops who need consistent, easy-to-use PLA at a reasonable cost. The bottom line: it delivers good dimensional consistency and simple handling for routine prints, with vacuum sealing and desiccant helping prevent moisture-related problems. For users who prioritize predictable diameter and neat spools for common FDM printers, this filament provides dependable results, though a few customers reported adhesion quirks and occasional tangles that temper expectations.

Key Features

  • Dimensional Accuracy: The filament is manufactured with a self-adaptive control system to maintain a 1.75 mm diameter with a tight tolerance of +/- 0.02 mm for steady extrusion.
  • Ready-to-Print Temperature: Recommended nozzle temps around 210-220C (range 180C-215C listed) make it suitable for most PLA print profiles while producing good layer adhesion.
  • Moisture Protection: Each spool is vacuum sealed with desiccant to reduce moisture absorption and help avoid bubbles and clogs during printing.
  • Neat Spooling: Auto-mechanical winding keeps the filament orderly on the 1 kg spool to reduce unwinding problems when stored and fed into a printer.
  • Low Shrinkage and Toughness: The material is formulated for stronger toughness and low shrinkage, which helps functional prints hold dimensions and resist minor impacts.

Who It's For

This filament is aimed at hobbyists, educators, and makers using common 1.75 mm FDM printers who want an affordable, consistent PLA for everyday projects. The tight dimensional tolerance and vacuum-sealed packaging suit users who value reliable extrusion and fewer moisture-related print failures.

Those who need advanced engineering filaments, very high-temperature materials, or guaranteed perfect first-layer adhesion in every environment should look elsewhere; a few reports of tacky adhesion behavior and occasional tangles mean high-end or mission-critical production users may prefer a different reel with stricter QA or different material properties.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Consistent diameter and tight tolerance improve print reliability across long runs.
  • Vacuum-sealed spool with desiccant reduces moisture and helps prevent bubbles and clogs.
  • Auto-wound spools arrive neatly arranged, making loading and storage simpler.
  • Works with a wide range of common 1.75 mm FDM printers and standard PLA temperature settings.

Cons

  • Some users report adhesion issues with the filament feeling overly sticky at times, which may require bed or temperature adjustments.
  • Occasional tangles have been reported while unrolling despite auto-winding, so inspect the end and use the fixing hole as recommended.
