3D printer filaments compare tool

MikeCur · 2014-12-22T15:47:16.000Z

Hello everyone,

I would like to introduce our new tool where you can find different 3d printer filaments from many sellers, compare price and choose the best for your needs. Since we have just run it recently there are about 8 sellers in our database for now, but we are trying to add more.

We constantly try to improve this page and would be happy to hear any comments/suggestions/critics from 3d printing enthusiasts.

Also please let us know if you want to see any specifics sellers in the list, we definitely will try to add them.

Hi Mike, thanks for sharing this with us. Sounds like a useful tool - looking forward to trying it out

Hey Mike, just a thought: @ColorFabb filaments might be a nice addition to the tool

Hi Mike, seems like you are forgetting both the Dutch filament brands; Innofil3d is also missing!

Hi @Sjeltur and @gabriela3d

Thank you for your responses. We will try to add both filaments to our tool shortly.

YES, Colorfabb and Innofil are a MUST! Specialy, because you dont have any 2.85 mm PLA Filament in you Database.

Any chance of covering other countries/currencies too?

jandj3d,

Yes, we are planning to add another countries/currencies. It will take some time but hopefully something will appear soon.

I have a really good experience with Colorfabb PLA on my Ultimaker-2. On the other side of the filament spectrum is filament from 123inkt.nl, yeah, it’s cheap but plays in a totally other quality league. For me it’s Colorfabb only.

Esun is a brand you should show.

It is available on Amazon via ToyBuilder Labs and also through their website.

INTSERVO is another great supplier of the product on Amazon.

Sad to see Colorfabb is not in the list while this is a brand of excelent filament and great Specials (Bronze, Coper, Brass)

a few more sugestions:

http://www.faberdashery.co.uk
http://mtb3d.com (they do POM/Delrin)
http://www.proto-pasta.com (iron, magnetic other fancy stuff)
did someone mention Colorfabb

Thank you a lot for all recommendations. We will try to do our best and improve the tool.

Happy New Year everyone!

No measure to sort by quality? There are some brands to be avoided.

It looks like almost 2 months passed since the initial post about our 3d printer filament tool was published. During this time our team was involved in many interesting projects, but we also spent some time to add new enhancements to our filament tool:
- Added new stores to the list. Ebay is still in development phase but we are planning to finish it soon and add more information from them to our tool. There is also about 5-6 stores from different regions in our list that we are planning to add in the nearest future.
- Added new filaments - Colorfabb, eSUN, RepRaper, Verbatim and others.
- Also now we have 2.85 filaments
- Added new Filter by Region.

During the last month we have got a lot of feedbacks positive and negative that helped us to understand what exactly people want to see in tools like this.

We keep going on improving the tool and try to make it better. We would like to say thank you to all who provided the feedback and always happy to hear more.
