Summary
A house-brand 1.75 mm PLA+ spool aimed at Ender-series printers, with a ±0.02 mm tolerance claim and 190–230 °C nozzle window. No independent lab test validates it, so it is defensible mainly at or below about $18/kg.
Strengths
- ±0.02 mm diameter tolerance claim and neat-winding marketing.
- 14-day return window when bought from Creality direct.
- PLA+ is generally stronger and less brittle than regular PLA, per owner reports.
- Regional store ratings are high, though from small, non-US pools.
- No subscription or accessory lock-in; only the spool plus dry storage.
Weaknesses
- No independent instrumented test of this exact filament exists.
- Strongly negative owner reports describe Creality PLA as brittle and z-banded.
- One owner found a purchased Ender PLA+ spool printed more coarsely than the sample filament.
- The PLA+ 1 kg is absent from the US store and sold out in Canada; availability is regional.
- “PLA+” is not a standardized term, so toughness claims are not comparable across brands.
- The warranty term is ambiguous between 12 and 24 months on Creality’s own pages.

Full research notes and sources
What PLA+ means here
“PLA+” is a marketing term with no standardized definition; the same label covers different impact-modified formulations across brands, so specs and behavior are not comparable between brands. PLA+ typically prints about 10–15 °C hotter than regular PLA and is more impact-resistant but still brittle and low-heat compared with PETG or ABS. The older Creality official page for the standard, non-plus Ender PLA lists 190–220 °C nozzle and 60–80 °C bed, a different product; use the PLA+ numbers (190–230 °C nozzle, 45–60 °C bed) for this spool. PLA is hygroscopic, so store it in a dry box or vacuum bag.
Evidence and owner reports
No credible instrumented test of this exact filament was found. Tom’s Hardware’s 2026 filament guide, which tested extensively, does not list Creality among its PLA picks; its budget options run $16.99–18.99/kg. CNC Kitchen’s PLA versus PLA+ work used other brands. Owner discussion on Reddit is mixed. Two strongly negative reports describe Creality Ender PLA as brittle and z-banded, one calling it the worst filament bought and fixed by switching to another brand. A third owner says an Ender PLA+ spool printed more coarsely than the sample filament that shipped with their Ender 3 V3. Positive sentiment is lukewarm: “alright but there is better out there.” A separate report from the CR-PLA line shows best-print temperatures varying wildly between colors of the same line, evidence that Creality filament colors can behave differently. None of this supports a prevalence estimate; treat all of it as caution signals.
Creality UK store lists £16.99 (sale from £19.99), with bulk tiers down to £12.74 each at 20 spools (2026-10-16). Creality EU store lists €24.99 under a 50% OFF promotion (2026-10-16). Creality Canada lists CA$23.99 (from CA$32.99), sold out (2026-10-16). Creality VIP Mall lists $23.46 (2026-10-16). A third-party marketplace listing shows $16.09 (2026-10-16). The US store does not currently list the PLA+ 1 kg at all. Tom’s Hardware’s tested 2026 PLA picks cluster at $16.99–18.99/kg for budget PLA. At or below roughly $18 the spool is a fair, unremarkable PLA+ option with a 14-day return window from Creality direct; above $23 it costs more than tested alternatives without independent validation.
