Polymaker
Polymaker polylite PLA pro. The Polymax PLA is more expensive and less rigid. The PLA pro is only $2 more a kilo than regular polylite PLA and significantly stronger. Many colors are more matte than esun PLA + which is similar in cost and performance.
Yeah I love ploymax too. The pro prints thick though so you have to go hotter and slower. Their polylite PLA is still really great and has more colors so I like using it for for fast prototypes and things that don't need the strength.
Honestly their petg is a go to as well. I found prints to be much more consistent and better quality than similar cheaper petg I've been tempted to try by Amazon deals.
Not just for PLA either, they are my default brand for all filament unless they don't make the filament I need/want for a project. Reasonably priced, consistently available, and high quality.
Love polymaker for the natural filament.
