Exceptional Quality and Consistency
I've been using Polymaker filaments for various 3D printing projects, and I can confidently say that the quality I get from their ASA filament is nothing short of exceptional. Whether I'm printing complex designs or simple parts, the consistency and reliability of Polymaker ASA never disappoint.The filament flows smoothly, with minimal warping and excellent layer adhesion, even on larger prints. I've used it to print several outdoor items, including a custom Starlink mount, and the results have been outstanding. The filament produces a beautiful, matte finish that gives my prints a professional look right off the printer. It's also incredibly durable and resistant to UV light, making it perfect for outdoor applications.Another aspect I appreciate is the minimal odor during printing. Polymaker ASA has a much lower odor compared to other filaments I've used, which is a significant plus for long printing sessions.Overall, Polymaker continues to impress me with the quality of their filaments. If you're looking for a filament that delivers consistent, high-quality results every time, I highly recommend Polymaker ASA.

Fantastic! Prints as easily as PLA.
This is my first Polymaker filament and it is fantastic. One safety note before delving into the review:** Styrene in ASA (and also ABS) produces toxic fumes when 3D printed. Please ensure you have a well ventilated area where you plan on printing. **Pros:- Prints very well, and easily. I would compare it to PLA in terms of how easily it prints.- Seems to be much stronger and resistant to snapping when bending (with respect to PLA).- Can withstand higher temperatures and UV.- With respect to ABS, the fumes are lessened.- ASA prints with more of a satin to matte type of appearance.- The black color is interesting in the sense that it seems to pick up on colors around it.Cons:- ASA specific: Toxic fumes when printing, higher heat bed required, more prone to warping, enclosure possibly needed- Possible con: The filament on a new spool seems to be wider in diameter with respect to other manufacturers. If you happen to have a Bambu Lab AMS with filament guides (mod), you may have issues with retraction when completing a project. Note: This comment is regarding the overall diameter of the filament on the spool, not the filament itself.I had shied away from ASA and ABS with the preconceived notion that it would be more finicky than PETG. I was pleasantly surprised that is much easier! Polymaker will definitely be a go to from now on!If you're remotely interested - get it!

WOW, Just wow!!!
Slightly skeptical at first but now a believer. Hot and Slow but absolutely beautiful. No strange odor at all. Smooth and strong. Not going back to ABS when ASA is the new future. Plus added benefits of UV protection etc;. I am so impressed I am going to use ASA in place of PLA, significantly better at about the same price point. This brand rocks also.

Better than ABS
First and foremost, this was my first time ever printing in ASA. Initially, I started with ABS but could not stand the smell. Even with my air purifier on high, it was horrible. Out of the box it had alot of moisture that made it unbearable to print with so tbh, im never touching the stuff. Looking for alternatives, Polymaker came up and decided to check them out for the first time. I'd only ever printed PLA but mostly PETG. This project required either ABS or ASA for thier properties. If you've never printed with either of these, its not for the faint of heart. I liked Polymaker alot better as the smell wasn't so nauseating. Subtle with no enclosure and barely noticable with. I always run an air purifier that can filter any offgassing. I plan to print a nevermore filter also. It was a challenge for me to get this dialed in but in the end, this is what worked:- The bed really needs to be properly leveled, I cannot stress this enough.- I have a flex plate with a piece of probably 1mm pei on it. I sanded it to get it scuffed up with 80 grit sand paper (didn't have textured pei so this was the alternative). Washed it with dish soap, dried it and wiped it down with iso alcohol 90%.- Enabled Linear Advance and used teaching tech's video to configure (easy). This is optional but I've been hearing about it and found that it truly does improve the quality of the print.- Ensured that Z/ESteps were configured (I had to change extruders). The calibration cubes all measured the correct size.- Adjusted the flow rate. This really needs to be checked to avoid over extrusion even if the steps are correct.- Use elmers glue stick (the xtreme version). Believe me, I experienced warping when first attempting to print this. Initially, tried ASA juice/slurry which I advise against because it reeks and is a PITA to clean. Also tried sugar water which is laughable but seems to work for some. Get the glue stick. It's cheaper, water soluble, non-toxic and it just works. Not spending $20+ for the competition. Just run your flex plate under water and boom. If using on a bed take something to wipe it off (safely) if needed. Done cleaning.- Consistent heat. Do a PID tune. I found that this was one of the main reasons for warping. Whether using your printer in an enclosure or wherever, make sure there are no windy drafts of air. Also, I was used to setting certain temperatures for the first layer then reducing it when printing PETG. Not this time. Leave it be.- I stopped using brims. They work to reduce warping/corner lift but I can't stand them. Even though this ASA is relatively easy to sand, its annoying to remove/post-process especially when you have alot of small parts.Settings/Printer:Tevo TornadoPrusa Slicer250 NozzleBed is preheated for 10m (heat soak)90 bed (truly dont need to go higher than this)2 skirt linesDraft protection (hey it works but is probably not needed)I highly recommend this brand. Once you get things dialed in, it prints like butter. No moisture issues as the filament is well vaccum sealed and I keep all of my filament in an airtight container with dessicant at rest and in use. Love the natural color.

Great material, not-so-great color
I really like Polymaker ASA. It doesn't warp much if you have an enclosure and good bed adhesion, it's strong and tough, prints overhangs better than most.The only thing I don't like is that their "army green" color is quite a bit lighter and yellower than actual OD Green, as shown in the photo (an army green print on a military surplus equipment case). Their "olive brown" is pretty close to FDE, though, and the other colors are fine. They just need to change the army green to something close to the actual green the military uses.

Great Filament for Custom Projects!
This filament worked perfectly for exactly what I was trying to accomplish. I made some wheel hub covers, and it holds up really nicely! The quality is excellent, and the prints come out smooth and durable. Highly recommended for anyone needing reliable filament for their 3D printing projects.

Super easy to print
This is the easiest ASA I've ever printed. It's as easy as the old ABS+ from eSun before they messed up the formula. The Polymaker print came out beautiful like all the photos in the reviews. Super strong, great layer adhesion. and flex like ABS without snapping. It's on the expensive side but if you catch it on sale it is well worth the money. I've thrown out all my eSun ABS+ and replaced my printing with Polymaker ASA.

Tolles Filament
Bitte man muss damit umgehen können Temperaturen einhalten und geschlossenen Bauraum haben das setzte ich mal vorraus.Es druckt sich super es ist Mega stabil. Drucke mit Bambu x1c einfach ein Traum. Egal ob schwarz oder weißes filament von der Sorte.

Prints amazing on p1s
Used the “Bambu ASA” profile instead of the polymaker profile because that latter had issues with printing slight overhangs. With 3d Milk on textured PEI plate

Super Asa Filament
Nach eins zwei Probedrucke lässt sich dieses Asa sehr gut drucken.

Bonne qualité
ASA de bonne qualité, je l'utilise sur X1 et A1 sans problèmes. J'utilise le profil Polymaker prévu dans Bambu Studio
