As a US citizen I hate just how much better Prusament prints than anything else. It’s not even close. So expensive though for shipping and overall, so I use it for my top shelf stuff.
Turned my Prusameters into this nice Printables T-Shirt.

I’ve had a few spools. I’ve found inland from micro center to be really good filament. I haven’t noticed much difference between the two. Also, there are some top tier filament manufacturers in the US. Pricey stuff but no more than prusa and shipping is free to low.

Printables “Currency” You get some for doing stuff like submitting models and makes. 350 meters buys you a spool of Prusament, 200 a free t-shirt

They really nailed the “game-design” and community aspects of their website to give the insentive to publish to Printables rather than competitors. I find myself very excited to unlock badges and collect Prusameters !

I just went to check how many I have since I need a new spool of Prusa Orange PETG for printing printer parts.
I have 15 Prusameters. 💸

If you’re not in Europe, it often ends up costing the same as just buying filament since you have to pay for shipping.
