Highly recommend this filament after further testing! Read below if you'd like to know the best print settings for this filament
To review this filament, I’ve done a series of experimentation to help others to print with such. Overall, it’s a great filament to work with. After further calibration, the results have been fantastic. I would highly recommend this TPU filamentNow, I’ll write this for beginners in 3D printing. If you’re just starting and do not know much of the basics of 3D printing, I do not recommend this product. It’s best to start with PLA, as it is very easy to print and learn with. I wouldn’t say that TPU is difficult to deal with, but it is quite tricky. As I experimented with this filament, I noticed that you cannot have the same settings for every piece you print. Nevertheless, it does not mean the filament is bad.Now, this is for experienced and people of normal use and knowledge of 3D printers. As I mentioned before, the filament is great, but it does require a bit of attention. Also, if you’re in a hurry for the print to come out, do not expect that with this filament. Printing with TPU requires a lot of patience and care in order to have a great print. No patience = heavy stringing and ghosting. I would recommend printing a bunch of calibration parts for this filament so you can get to know it. As I mentioned, printing speeds varies depending on the part, but to have a rather “constant” print speed on most prints, I would recommend tweaking the wall thickness and infill. A good TPU print requires higher infill. As I experimented, I observed that good prints will result when adding at least 45% more of the infill of what you would normally print your part with PLA or ABS. If you’d like a good quality, but want the part to be Flexible and not too hard, the best I’d recommend is a 30-35% infill. Keep in mind that if the infill is too low, the part will possibly result to be misshapen, too flexible and wobbly, and end up with high ghosting on the top and/or final layers of the part. Note that the lower the infill, the lower print speed you’ll need to have. As a final evaluation of the experimental parts, I found that the best and average print settings to use are:• 15-20 mm/s print speed (Varies, depending on the part)• 230 Celsius• 44% infillOverall, this filament is a great filament. Also, it is very cheap, compared to the almost $50 TPU filaments out in the market. You’ll basically have the same results with this filament and save a lot. Once again, this is a great filament to have, with pretty fun results.

Cant say much more. Kept my PLA settings except for priting speed which i cut in half. 2 iphone cases, baby groot and this rocket for my son, all flawless.

Bad quality control. Was good filament, but not now.
Updating my rating from 5 stars down to 1. Reason? Bad quality control.I used this filament for a few projects, then put it away. I took it out to use it again several months later, and the first few prints went well, and then I found that the prints were stringy / messed up. It wasn't moisture, because I carefully dried the filament.Measuring the filament, I found that the diameter had gone down to 1.10mm (from 1.75mm) for the last 1/3 of the spool. I would send it back in for a refund if I could. Very disappointed, especially since I really needed this for a project. Too bad I couldn't count on Yoyi when I needed to.Old reviewGreat filament for the money. Consistent diameter, and consistent quality.Print settings:70C glass bed with PVA glue stick.230C nozzle first layer, 205C nozzle all other layers25mm/s for direct drive, 20mm/s for Bowden drive (0.6mm nozzle)Fan off first layer, 100% for all other layers.

Good value and works well for my needs
Seems to be a decent filament, and I've been happy with it. This was my first foray into printing with a flexible filament on my CR-10S, and over-all it's been a good experience. As everyone else says, printing speed is key with a flexible filament, especially on a bowden-based system like the CR-10S. I had a few failed Benchy's and experienced filament grinding and hemorrhaging as I dialed in the speed and temperature, but it was gratifying when I finally succeeded in producing a little semi-squishy boat of my own :)Items printed with this filament are not super soft, but they are flexible and have a decent amount of give to them (perhaps on par with tire rubber). After printing, this isn't crystal clear, but there is a good deal of transparency to it. Using fewer skin layers allows for more transparency, but I found that it also resulted in more chance of delamination of layers. Stringing hasn't been a big issue for me with this filament, despite disabling retraction, though I've been using a relatively quick 120mm/s for travel moves, which seems to help a bit with that.Nozzle: 0.4mmLayer height: 0.2mmExtruder Temp: 215CBed Temp: 60CPrint speed: 25mm/s (or slower)Travel speed: 120mm/sNo retractionNo fan on first layer, 100% after

Great printing filament for the price
I was very pleasantly surprised by YOYI TPU filament. It prints great!I have now printed 5 spools of Green and Red so far and have some white on the way.This is now my go to TPU

Value TPU
Purchased the black filament and this is my first flexible filament I've tried. I printed with this on my Ender 3, and after a little tweaking of the settings, I was able to get prints almost flawlessly every time. The finish of the end product looks great. There was minor stringing, but this is normal and was easy to clean up. Beginner friendly, and for great value. Highly recommended.

Constant clogs.
Trying to print simple blocks. Using Direct drive printer and constant print failures. I'm no noob to printing flexibles and this stuff is bad. Perhaps I got a bad roll? Clog 1. Cleared clog try to reprint. Clog 2. Replace nozzle and ptfe tube in throat and reprint. Clog 3. Clear nozzle test purge reprint. Working on attempt #4 now. Nozzle temp at 230, print speed 40mm, .4 nozzle. Too bad it looks great but too many print failures. It sure lays down smooth when it is working though!

CAT TOY HEAVEN! love this filament!
I am making many cat toy balls for my cats. They love it! This filament is GREAT if you want flexible and fun prints. There is stringing, but that cannot be avoided with flexible stuff! I LOVE THIS!!

Great filament, great customer support!
We had problems with the spool we got and as soon as they seen our email saying it had problems we recieved a new spool in the mail in a few days and that spool had no problems first print turned out better and I'm extremely satisfied with it, the color looks amazing and has a pearl effect to it and would definetively recommend it to anyone looking for a pearly blue flexible filament. I'm printing it on creality cr-10s. settings are 25mm/s speed for everysingle movement(first layer, wall, infil, etc.) 213° nozzle with 60° bed. It is more flexible than regular tpu but not quite as ninjatek.

Amazing filament. Works Great in a Bowden setup
I love this filament. It prints great even on a Bowden setup. It looks amazing. Very happy. Go slow and you will be fine.I printed this filament at 15mm/sec at 215C on 50C heated Bed. Overall I'm very pleased with how this filament prints, even on a stock Monoprice Select Mini V2. Print with more infill or walls for a tougher or stiffer part. Othe

great cheap TPU
hadn't printed TPU yet and went with this stuff. works well when you go slow and turn off retraction. Layer bonding is good. Print with a high number of walls, and low infill for squishy prints.would buy again

Prints really nicely.
It prints really nicely. I had to modify my extruder because this filament is very floppy and just gets bunched up in the extruder gears otherwise.I cut off about 1 cm of PTFE tubing and glued this in place to guide the plastic into the hotend without getting caught.

5 stars for the price/quality ratio
For the price I paid I was not expecting much from this filament, but i am completely surprised by the print quality,5 stars for the price/quality ratio

Arrived quickly
First time for me using this type of filament. It’s not like printing with PLA

Worked great!
This filaments worked great, my test print worked great. Made some adjustments to the settings and my second print was flawless. printing on a stock ender 3
