I have been sewing for over 20 years and have used Coats/Coats & Clark brand thread for all that time. It was cost effective and trouble-free and up until recently I had no reason to change it. When I began doing supplies research for my online clothing store aimed at a specific type of 1/3 and 1/4 scale collector dolls, I simply wanted to see if there was another good brand of thread that came in spools larger than 500 yards. I had always seen the Gutermann thread at Joann's, but it seemed very expensive for the same product I was already buying.
It was a bit of a surprise when I came looking on Amazon and found this thread that has twice as much per spool at about $8 when the 500yd spools I bought locally were about $5. I was a bit nervous switching brands of thread, but since I have only been working on outfit mockups, if it didn't work then my customers wouldn't know. I was just hoping I could save some time not having to re-thread bobbins so much.
That was two months ago. I have made a crazy amount of things with a single spool that is now nearly empty, and I'm ready to order two more. This thread is SO perfect for what I needed. The strand is smaller than the Coats all-purpose thread, but honestly I think it is a bit stronger. I have not had a single problem with it in my machine, a Brother CS6000i my husband bought me recently (also from Amazon.) No knotted bobbins, no snapped threads, no tangles or anything. I've had more problems occasionally with the Coats thread. I can truthfully say that I am pleased beyond belief, especially because I never expected to find a thread better than my tried & true Coats brand. I love the Gutermann thread so much that I was gushing to my mom and sister about it just yesterday. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect thread for what I needed.
