I'm about half way through this spool and I'm very pleased with the results. The winding has been great, the filament has been consistent, and the color/finish is a great blend of grey with a matte finish that is really very nice. It appears slightly darker in color than what is shown in the picture, but not by very much. I'm also quite excited about the reusable spool once finished, as that is going to allow me to save money on refills instead of just throwing out spool after spool. I haven't used this brand of filament before, but I will gladly in the future thanks to these stellar results. Recommended.
