Best/recommended premium FLEX filament

New mini+ here, got few PLA and PETG prints with Prusament, good quality filament, but now I want to try some flex filament.

Based on your guy's experience, what's the best and premium filament I could get to print with mini+ ?

I know opinions might divide but after seeing 50 youtube videos, basically each one has their own favourite, but nothing for mini+ related.

Thanks

Not yet, only PLA and PETG, that's why my question.

Trying to find the best FLEX, premium quality and that works good with mini based on other prusa mini users experience.

RE: Best/recommended premium FLEX filament

I don't own a mini , however I do know there are folks here printing Flexible's with their mini's. I print flexible filaments on my MK3's all the time, they are direct drive not the bowden system of the mini, however I would offer the same advice to a person such as yourself, when your just starting out printing flex choose a material with a high shore/durometer value, something in the upper 90's (e.g. 98A) the stiffness of the material will help with the learning curve, and in the case of the mini should really help get you started. once you get 98A working try using a 95A it's even softer, the bowden system isn't going to be as forgiving with flexible's as a direct drive, and flexible's can be challenging for some, even with the direct drive setup, so expect this to be a learning opportunity and as you get frustrated with it don't give up.
