The different PLA "pro" and PLA "plus" especially are noticeably different between brands if you're asking for more performance than just quick cheap rough toys. Both in terms of print quality (especially at speed, but it also affects slower speeds for how it does with hot small slower layers), shrinkage, surface finish, and even how brittle printed pieces end up, even before getting to issues like thickness tolerance and spool winding consistency. Polymaker is one consistently strong choice and CAN be worth the premium ("worth it" really depends on each person's context).
If you never notice differences between filament with cheaper brands with what you're printing, THATS GREAT. Seriously, glad for you xD
However, for other people, if you're having trouble with prints (even after drying) it can be worth switching to a somewhat more premium filament (and doing some tuning towers/prints) to see if it helps at all. If you're printing a lot of the same thing, it's worth standardizing on a brand that doesn't change its filament additives frequently (and tends to maintain manufacturing consistency), so that you aren't dealing with that as a variable between brands and batches.
For beginners, starting with a well regarded brand and format at a more premium price is WELL worth it to avoid it being something they need to figure out whether the filament might be the problem when having issues.
