But besides the ASMR is it better than PETG (considering building a fume hood for abs) and what brand.
IMO there's no "best" material, they all have advantages and disadvantages. PLA is very rigid, PETG is UV and temperature resistant, ABS is temperature resistant and dissolves in acetone... ABS is tricky to print though, even with an enclosure. I wouldn't recommend it unless you need the higher temperature resistance or like to tinker.
I manily use PETG because for me it is way stronger and easier to print than PLA (especially Prusa filament)
