# Is Elegoo filament good?

Two comments on one thread say ELEGOO PLA has been fine for that person, and one of them has moved mostly to PLA+. A second thread disagrees about under-extrusion versus over-extrusion and gives no temperature. That is not a ranking, and it is not a budget-value score.

Good, in these comments, means one person has been printing ELEGOO PLA and then mostly PLA+. [Best brand](/answers/brand_best) is the same kind of question for other names. [Budget filament](/answers/cheap) is the price question. [Filament quality](/answers/filament_quality) is how to look at a spool without a brand score. None of these three rows stores a price per kilogram.
