I wasted $60 on a 3D printer filament bundle that was all junk

Bought a 12 pack of random colors off Amazon for cheap and every single spool was brittle and snapped during printing. Has anyone found a reliable budget filament brand that actually works?

Dude, the whole bundle was brittle? Like every single spool? That's gotta be some kind of record for bad luck, I'm honestly impressed.

Wait, was it that Hatchbox knockoff brand with the weird matte finish? I fell for the same trap last year and yeah, every single spool snapped like dry spaghetti on my printer. It’s super frustrating cause you think you’re saving money but really you’re just wasting time and filament on failed prints. I’ve had okay luck with Sunlu if you catch their stuff on sale, but for cheap I just stick to basic black or white from overture now. Have you tried drying them out first, or were they just trash from the start?
