Yes I had adhesion problems when I used the black but this was curable with some low tack glue on my print bed. I had a few issues with the white as well.
Luckily don't have any such issues now that I use our own filament (3dex filament)

Some people have talked about warping and how you need an enclosure for ABS. But if you don't have one as part of your printer, a regular cardboard box will do. Here's an image of the one in our office:

It definitely looks a little silly, but that was before we had found a big enough cardboard box. It worked
We did have a guest blog a few months back for a guide on PLA vs ABS here. There's a handy summary chart at the bottom on the main characteristics that you may want to consider!

Yes nothing is silly if it works and serves a purpose. is the box merely to retain heat?
Luckily, I've not had any issues with warping when printing ABS

I bought two small spools of Makerbot PLA filament at Staples store. I thought that PLA is brittle but I think that Inland ABS filament is brittle. I drilled larger holes through objects made from PLA and they don't break. Objects made from ABS sometimes break if I put screws through them. Are there cheaper but good PLA filament?
Printer will print perfect...
