Sovol Filament Color "Sovol" - when will there be compatible printers for this color?

I bought two spools of “Sovol Blue” filament for my SV08Max.

Conclusion: Everyone at Sovol is colorblind.

The blue of this filament doesn’t even come close to Sovol’s blue. I wonder when they’ll finally release a printer that matches the filament color?

The SV08Max, in any case, has completely different colors.

This is truly embarrassing and disastrous for a manufacturer.

It goes perfectly with the junk feeder.

Hi

Have you bought this one?

Because, I bought it and it seems to me the right color.

As far as I know, they don’t make Sovol Blue anymore…
the only way you can get it is from the Gift Box Sovol gives out on their Live Stream.
I’ve talked to them over the past year about bringing it back…but they said no one bought it…so it was discontinued.

That’s a bummer they discontinued it. Maybe they could bring the Sovol PLA Blue back for a limited time like a Holiday sale or as a special release when they release a new printer? You know, just to give some of the folks who would like to purchase it a chance :slight_smile:

I also keep looking but cant find it here in the US. It does look like you can purchase it on the Comgrow France site @mich0111 shared. I don’t know about exchange rates or shipping costs, or if they ship to the US.

Anyway, I’d be on that list for buying a Sovol Blue roll or two, for sure! I want to mod my Zero and like the color!

Cheers,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused. Do you order this color of blue? This blue color is the same as the one we used to produce for our printers. We don’t currently produce the blue color for the 08max printer. If you want the blue color for the 08max printer, I will feedback it to the company.

This is a complete rip-off.
The shop clearly stated “Sovol Blue” when I ordered. There was NO indication that a different blue is used for the SV08Max.
In 10 years of 3D printing experience, I have never encountered such a sloppy manufacturer. Absolutely appalling.
I’ve already informed many other users on social media and discovered that I’m not the only one having nothing but trouble with Sovol.
I hope they go bankrupt soon – you’re certainly on the right track.

I don’t know about your printer, but my Max has at least two different shades of blue (the enclosure handles are more grey). And they are both different from the shade used on my SV07 (which is more green). Sovol also uses at least two different fonts for the company name – look at the stylized stencil at the top of the MAX frame and compare to the serif font of the build plate. Or the lighting bolt logo, variations of which feature prominently on the website and some printers but is not to be found on the MAX.

Unlike western company’s careful attention to uniform branding, Chinese companies don’t seem to care much. On the plus side, it’s one of the things that makes it easier to spot Chinese counterfeits of western brands.

My advice is not to sweat the small stuff. Enjoy (or hate!) the printer for what it is, not what it looks like.
