Has anyone had any experience with filaflex?

ninjaflex was slowwwwww and hard to pass through extruder, trying to find a more efficient flexible filament.

I would suggest Makerflex from MakerGeeks. It may not be quite as soft as Ninjaflex, but it also seems tougher and is definitely a lot less expensive.

Can you get better feed? Better print feeds with it?

filaflex has been around for a long time. its been awhile but i remember a comparison review of 5 or so flexibles. i remember the filaflex not being any faster. try the cheetah filament. its a little faster than ninjaflex but keep in mind any flexible will be slow. thats just the way it is

I have had great success with both Makerflex and Ninjaflex. I have posted on "Insta's Filaments that Work on the M2" thread.

The thread is as the top of the "Filament" group heading. I recommend reading all the posts; very beneficial information.
