AMOLEN Walnut Wood Printing Filament 1.75mm PLA 3D Printer Filament 3D Printer Filament with Real Wood Fiber Wood Texture Filament,1KG

[Edit: I am updating this review after receiving some stellar support from AMOLEN who was very interested in knowing more about the problem, this level of customer support is worth mentioning. ]I want to love this filament. It's pretty neat. It perfectly matched some wood furniture in my home that I was printing some parts to hide various wires for plant lights so everything wouldn't look ugly. And it was great in terms of matching the color and having a wood-like texture. My initial print came out pretty well.I did unfortunately have a difficult time using this in a filament management system (CFS, AMS, or similar). More than once when the system tried to reload the filament, it caused the filament to break off in the extruder. My hypothesis is that the actual wood fibers cause this filament to have a rougher texture that these systems are not used to. However when I switched to just using the spool holder, everything was gravy. No issues. I did a 14 hour Groot planter that came out fantastic. No bobbing or stringing or anything like that. And the results look much cooler than if I was just using brown filament.I will definitely order more of this filament when I'm looking to create unique prints, but I did want to mention at the very least to CFS users that you may encounter minor issues and the fix that worked for me was to bypass the CFS and just feed this filament directly in.

I have an Ender 3 v2 with a sprite head. I printed at a lower temp then I typically print as to not "burn" and it was just silky and beautiful. I printed the whole spool in a matter of days because I was so in love with it (our house has a LOT of Groot now) and it never clogged. One vase I did and sanded showed "rings" which just added to the beauty of this product. I am giving it a 5 because I really am loving it and even purchased more already, but it does have some downsides that should be mentioned they just aren't enough for me to drop the stars because the prints are so gorgeous with little to no post work. Pictured vase has had no post work and is straight off the printer.Cons: It has more of a smell then other filaments while it is printing. I am very sensitive to smell and had to print with window open overnight. Again, I am VERY sensitive to smell, so this probably won't affect most people but worth a mention.It marks up easy like a soft wood and is hard to keep the beauty of the matte finish with finishing agents. You lose something. I have tried resin (super glossy) and a wood wax which seemed the best choice. I was tempted to try an oil but worry it would break down the PLA as oil and PLA don't typically play nice together. I tried Modge Podge and Gesso as well...both showed lines and really didn't leave it as protected as I would have liked. So still exploring finishing options. Manufacturer didn't have any guidance on their site to help with this. As it marks up so easily it really needs something to protect it, or your beautiful print won't last. The heart is my first test with the best results. Left wood wax, right resin. I need to see if more layers of wax will prevent marking up.Finally, color. Mine came out not like a deep rose-colored rosewood but a deep chocolate color. It's still beautiful, but I would have to say it is really dark.

Maybe my expectations were unrealistic, but I expected a little more "woody" look. It does printy very nice and I appreciate that, but I just sort of expected more for the price. It was well-spooled and no tangles so far. I like the ocerall result as a matte filament, I just don't think its price is justified.Just an old man's opinion.

Fossil PLA with Bambu P1S standard PLA profile, no issues. The color can vary in shades. I printed out a rock structure that was made of two parts and the first one was just awesome darkish brown, and the second one was a shade lighter and didn't match. It's likely it will cycle from a darker shade to a lighter shade. But it looks really good so can't knock it down a star for that.

Amolen filaments offer outstanding quality and a great selection, comparable to top-tier brands. The spools work seamlessly in the Bambu AMS without needing printed rings, and they print flawlessly using both generic and Bambu profiles. The consistency and reliability make this a go-to filament for high-quality prints. Highly recommend!

I bought this, because the wood filament I normally use wasn't available.First run with it, clogged the nozzle. Thinking it was because it wasn't a new nozzle, put a new nozzle in.Then the print stopped printing and when I looked, the filament had snapped off. I found several brittle sections that would just snap apart.Last attempt, it laid down nicely at first, then broke again.It seems there are many brittle sections on this reel.Keeping it in the dry cabinet didn't help at all.I gave up. This reel will go in the trash.Threw on another different reel and printed out several other items with no issues.Edit: After giving it a fair shot and going to a 0.6 nozzle, I was able to get it to print a decent print.It was still rather difficult to get the settings to what I thought they should be, but I did get it to make some things. Stringing is a big issue with this filament, even with trying to dial in the settings.But the results are quite nice, once you do get it to print.So while I still find this filament to be a royal pain to work with, I was able to get it to print fairly decent with a .6 nozzle.0.4 nozzle, would clog constantly.0.5 nozzle would print, but clog with in 7 hours printing.0.6 nozzle went a couple prints before it started to show signs of clogging.Drying the filament didn't help the brittle issues.
