    About PLA Rainbow filament

    PLA is the easiest 3D printing filament to run: it prints cool, barely warps, and works on any open-frame printer. SpoolDeal follows 61 PLA Rainbow listings on Amazon UK, Eryone UK and SUNLU UK and re-checks them through the day, so the prices on this page reflect what you would actually pay at checkout rather than a cached snapshot. The cheapest PLA Rainbow listing we are tracking right now is £9.99, which works out at £9.25 per kilogram. 10 of those listings are at least 5% below their usual 90-day price right now.

    PLA Rainbow is best suited to prototypes, models, display pieces, cosplay props and anything that will not sit in a hot car or in direct sun. As a starting point, print PLA Rainbow at 190–230°C with the bed at 35–60°C; it doesn't need an enclosure. Finished parts hold their shape to about 57°C. PLA likes strong part cooling and open airflow. PLA Rainbow absorbs moisture slowly; dry it when prints start stringing or popping: 50°C for about 6 hours, and no hotter than 55°C.

    When you are comparing PLA Rainbow deals, the headline spool price is rarely the whole story. Reel weights vary between 500g, 800g and 1kg, and multipacks are often listed at a bundle price that looks expensive until you divide it out. Every card below shows the price per kilogram alongside the current price so you can compare like for like, and we flag listings that have recently dropped so you can tell a genuine discount from a permanently inflated "was" price.

    Brands currently stocked in this category include SUNLU, Creality, ERYONE, YUANEANG, Cookiecad, Flashforge. Prices between brands can differ by more than 50% for functionally similar filament, so it is worth checking a few before committing to a bulk order.

    PLA Rainbow filament: common questions

    Answers from our live prices and the material table.

    What is the cheapest PLA Rainbow filament in the UK right now?

    The cheapest PLA Rainbow filament we are tracking on Amazon UK, Eryone UK and SUNLU UK is £9.99, which is roughly £9.25 per kilogram. This page is sorted by price so the current cheapest listing appears first.

    What temperature should I print PLA Rainbow at?

    As a starting point, print PLA Rainbow at 190–230°C with the bed at 35–60°C; it doesn't need an enclosure. Always check the range printed on the spool, as it varies between brands and colours.

    What is PLA Rainbow filament best used for?

    PLA Rainbow is a good choice for prototypes, models, display pieces, cosplay props and anything that will not sit in a hot car or in direct sun. PLA is the easiest 3D printing filament to run: it prints cool, barely warps, and works on any open-frame printer.

    How should I dry and store PLA Rainbow filament?

    PLA Rainbow absorbs moisture slowly; dry it when prints start stringing or popping: 50°C for about 6 hours, and no hotter than 55°C. Between prints, keep reels sealed with silica gel or another desiccant.

    Should I compare PLA Rainbow by spool price or price per kilogram?

    Price per kilogram. Spool weights vary between 500g, 800g and 1kg, and multipacks are listed at a bundle price, so the cheapest spool is often not the cheapest filament. Every PLA Rainbow listing on this page shows both figures.

    How SpoolDeal checks prices

    The same rules on every page, so a deal badge means the same thing everywhere.

      Every tracked listing on Amazon UK, Eryone UK and SUNLU UK is re-checked through the day, and the most-watched ones every two hours.

    2. Measured against our own history

      A deal only counts when the price is below what that reel has actually sold for over the last 90 days, not a seller's “was” price.

      Set a target price on any reel with a free account and we email you when it gets there.

    Get new PLA Rainbow filament deals by email

    When something here drops below its usual price, by our own price history, we'll email you. One email a day at most, and every one has a one-click unsubscribe.

    We'll send you a sign-in link. Clicking it saves this search, and creates your free account if you don't have one. By signing up you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
