I wanted to start a simple comparison thread for the 3D Printing Forum, because PLA brand choice seems to matter more than people expect once you print enough. Hatchbox, eSUN, and Polymaker all have fans, and the experiences can be surprisingly different even before you touch slicer settings.
If you’ve used two or all three, which one do you prefer, and what is the one difference you notice most in stringing and consistency? I’m especially curious about the practical stuff like how often you have to retune temps, whether it prints the same from spool to spool, and which one feels the most predictable for everyday prints.
