Interesting. Their PLA and ABS are sold under the name Overture now. Perhaps these TPUs are leftover inventory?

Why? It's like trying to shove a piece of (cooked/wet) spaghetti down a long, bendy tube.. it doesn't work very well.

Same. Had a stock Anycubic Chiron and printed beautifully detailed pieces despite being so flexible.

Yes, TPU usually requires slightly higher nozzle temps compared to PLA. Print speed, retraction speed, island crossing, and retraction distances will all need to be adjusted as well.

It works perfectly well on bowden printers that aren't total garbage. Even works on the cheapo ender 3s. You just need to slow down print speeds to like 15mm/s.
Yes, TPU runs at a lower temp. Has a lower melting point.
Overture is awesome filament, I have been using their black for a while now, zero adhesion, clogging, crappy print, etc issues. Best filament so far (I've used at least 10+ brands). The included work surface decal is definitely an added bonus, works great to cover up old scratched surface. High quality stuff!
I never claimed it to be a bad filament. It is a Chinese knockoff of Amazon basic filament. It possible they were originally supplying it for Amazon?
Someone pointed out the brackets being used in the product description on Chinese sold product on Amazon... which so far has been true from my experience.
