Review on 🧵 Aurifil Mako Cotton Thread Solid 50WT 1422Yds, White - A1050-2024 (Improved SEO) by Tammy Jones

Bad batch, old stock or fake? And no, it's not my typewriter or needle. Continue reading;

I may have received a bad spool, junk or a counterfeit product, but this thread has broken too many times on my projects and hasn't even passed my pull test. I am extremely unimpressed. When I'm done sewing, I give the starting and ending threads a firm tug to tighten the first and last stitches, including when bar-tacking. This thread just got broken! I think that saved me from cutting them off. To make sure it wasn't my machine or the needle, I removed the bobbin from my machine, pulled the thread a decent length - about 3 feet - and pulled it all the way through and it broke, broke, broke. I can't even call it a handle because it broke so easily. I suppose if you like to play, fill up your car all the time or don't care if the thread is holding in your ceiling then this is for you. To me it's just not worth the disappointment.
