Lately I’ve been using inland brand natural Pla. It prints so nice and I find that it adheres to the print bed really well. My go to filament brand used to be Amolen but some of these cheaper filaments have gotten so good in recent years.

I use Copymaster3D PLA most of the time. It's cheap and locally made. It's not the best (some colours have some inconsistency issues and white PLA has some crap inside), but it works for prototyping and is very dimensionally stable. I also use their Tough PLA for final parts, it's more expensive, bit it's very consistent and prints nicely at higher speeds. Actually it's main issue is that it's too leaky so you can't print it slow - it just sips on its own.
