Tried IID Max's PLA+ since they were always posting discounts on Reddit. I've stuck with them since for anything that needs color, their filament is vibrant and I've never had any issues. Buying in bulk you're looking at roughly $10/kg. For my black I use Elegoo PLA. It has a nice sheen to it.
I do everything in black anyway, and 4 packs of Elegoo PLA are like $45. No complaints so far and $11-12/kg is hard to beat
The bulk 10kg options look good. I might stock up on those and packrat a few colors since they dont' really go bad
