My first couple rolls were Monoprice's MP Select PLA+, which is about $20/kg and often on slight discount. Pretty good stuff.
I've tried Inland PLA, which is Available on Amazon or locally if you're near a Microcenter.. It's made by eSun. $15/kg with prime shipping. It's pretty much fine, though a little touchier about temperatures, and it's a little more brittle. The different colors also seem to need slightly different settings, especially black.
I've pretty much standardized on eSun's PLA+. Just a little more expensive at $22-$23/kg, but less brittle.
Any of them would be a fine first PLA. The prints have turned out great with all three, and I still rotate through them, as I have some colors in from Monoprice and Microcenter that I don't have in eSun. Reports vary (google "Inland eSun PLA" for a sampling), so some of this may also be confirmation bias. I don't regret purchasing any of the above.
I'm using a new Maker Select with this filament. I've done some mods already:
Glass bed with hairspray and binder clips
Fan duct
Z endstop
Extruder gear
My Y carriage was warping, so I modified this one
I'll post any settings I'm using, if that would help.
I second this. I’ve gone through at least 30 spoils of Inland because I pass a micro center on both legs of my work commute. It’s $15 for pla and $18 for petg and they work great. The colors aren’t great but who cares. Recently they color formula has changed a bit and the colors have definitely improved. [Amazon] ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YQB85PG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_In16Ab8RMSNNG ) has recently started carrying it on prime so no need to live near a MC anymore.
It's not quite as cheap as in store but I've also had good experience with Inland brand (what microcenter sells) on Amazon.

it's PLA - I'm using the Inland brand. I kicked it up to 215 because it says - Recommended Extrusion/Nozzle Temperature: 215°C - 230°C on the description.

Sorry about the long link, it's the same stuff and same price with free amazon 1 day shipping. I've used this pretty much exclusively for the past 7 or so months after having some issues with other brands.
I've used a fair amount of inland filament, and I like it a lot. Currently selling for 16.99 on Amazon. Comes in a bunch of colors too. From what I've read, it's the same as eSun filament which usually goes for about 22 bucks a kg.
