TLDR: Two Thumbs Up, a solid "5 Stars." Nice Tri-Color Silk PLA. Be choosy what you print -- the tri-color really pops with multifaceted vases and shapes. 215-220 deg C print temp seems like the starting point for adjustment. Resealable bag and cardboard spool with remaining filament length/weight gauges are nice touches.First, let me state I am no expert. I've been 3d printing as a hobby for a few months under 2 years, and I've used three different printers. The only printer used with this filament was a FLSUN Super Racer delta, with MicroSwiss extruder, dual 5015 cooling fans, bi-metal hot end, and PEI build plate. It was connected to a FLSUN Speeder Pad running Klipper (input shaping was turned off).E-Steps, Extrusion and PID tuning completed prior to testing; followed TeachingTech's calibration guide and the official Klipper websiteAll models sliced with Prusa 2.6.0 alpha 5; models may have sliced differently in official release 2.5.1Filament packaging consisted of a cardboard box with viewing window and resealable plastic bag. The 1KG roll of tri-color silk filament was neatly wound on a ~140g cardboard spool. My spool had a mild dent, but not enough to impact using filament rollers.The spool was embossed with the Eryone Logo, and a sticker provided gauges indicating approximate remaining filament length and weight gauge as well as filament recommended printing values:Nozzle Temp - 190-220 deg CBed Temp - 55-70 deg CPrinting Speed - 30-100mm/sTemp Tower: 220 deg C provided a nice print; as the temp went down, the filament started to fall apart and I stopped the printTetrahex Ripple Vase by ChrisTheViolaNerd on Printables- Scaled down to 60% (160mm tall with a base of 120mm)- 0.9mm extrusion width at 0.15mm height in vase mode- 220 deg C- 65mm/s speed- Printing time = ~5hrsThis print came out great and I think if I lowered the height to 0.12mm or 0.1mm, and reduced the extrusion width it may have looked even better.Franken Mug by Sterna on Thingiverse- Scaled up to 500% (175mm tall with a front to back length of 155mm)- 0.45mm extrusion width at 0.20mm height- 220 deg C- 135mm/s speed- Printing time = ~18hrs- Approx filament = 123 metersThis was a long print and organic supports were used. Some of these supports broke during printing, so ignore any sagging filament as it's not the filaments faults. Although not part of this review, there are 4 more parts to print to complete this Franken Mug.You will notice banding for two different reasons, and sometimes at the same time. Neither are the filament's fault from what I see. 1) the filament may twist between the extruder and travel through the Bowden tube and present a different color when it gets to the nozzle, and 2) the hot end didn't maintain a constant temp which causes layers to look shinier or more dull. Printing slower may help with a "minimum layer time" cooling set.Articulated Spirit Dragon by AKinferno on Printables- 100% scale- 220 deg C printing temp- very nice first layer- failed to print twiceFirst time I suspect a filament clog caused "air printing"; second time the infill was noticeably under-extruded and didn't stick to the previous layer; again maybe due to a clog. Keep in mind both files were sliced on the PrusaSlicer 2.6.0 alpha 5.Overall, I like this filament, and it prints nicely. I will update this review with better photos after additional testing. You would need to calibrate your printer and test this filament before starting on any long prints. Also, I would choose a different color next time--something brighter--as I already have a lot of purple, blue and black filament.
