Good deal. I have had great results with Sunlu filament. My only gripe is that sometimes the spools are wound too tight. I would have grabbed the PETG deal, but they only show four colors available in USA inventory. Red is out of stock.

Petg is tougher than pla but requires more tinkering to print correctly.

I have had good success printing with PETG on an Ender 3 v2 with the only modification being a PEI print surface and almost no tinkering beyond that. It does string more than PLA but the increased strength is a fair tradeoff. Adjusting retraction could probably reduce stringing, but it mostly rubs offs and the prints I make a typically function over aesthetics.

Its not nearly as hard as something like ABS to get good quality prints from.

It's a bit stronger, more heat, and UV resistant.
For example the top shelf on my printer i originally printed with PLA. After a few weeks of printing with just a couple things on it the shelf stated to droop. I reprinted in PETG and it hasn't drooped at all.
Also anything I'm going to use outside here in FL I've been printing with PETG.
