I'm new to 3d printing. What are your thoughts on this pla+ vs rapid pla+? Any reason to skip this in favor of rapid?
From my small experience in testing rapid pla, unless you spend time testing to get optimal speed/quality settings, its not really worth it if you are paying a higher price.
For petg though I do use rapid since I have managed to get a faster print time for the items I sell. Ive cut print time by about 20% without affecting quality.
I will say thought for white pla I ONLY buy Sunlu pla+ 2.0. It isnthe brightest white and probably the best at reducing color bleed.

I have a ton of elegoo filament (plus other brands like sunlu, polymaker etc). Among Elegoo's standard PLA (plus, basic, rapid and pro), the plus is my preference and almost would always buy it over the others with everything else being equal. In fact, it's probably my favorite non specialty pla among any brands I've tried (and I've tried a lot). All though their rapid pla+ is very close.
