The colors are gorgeous, each one more alluring than the last. The spools ARE small and SOME, only SOME, are difficult to start. A scant few are missing that very handy thread-holder-cap (sorry, I'm new to embroidery, so I don't know the exact terminology yet, but I do know that deal is neat and VERY clever - ALL thread spools should have that!). As mentioned in the title, I have a Janome 350e; it seems important to mention the machine a person runs their thread thru, so there that info is.I used this thread on a small multi-colored flower arrangement. (if I knew how to attach a photo, I would . not sure that counted as a "product link" ) Overall it's not too bad. I am still training / learning. If I had been more serious about applying this to something, I'm not sure I'd be very happy with it. This stuff seems thinner than the only other brand I have on hand which is Floriani, which came as a gift with my machine. I don't have anything else to compare it to, is why I say that.Anyway, for $x.00, it's okay to have on hand. It's plenty useable, the colors are beautiful, I have had ZERO hangups in my embroidery machine and that's using 10-plus different colors on that flower arrangement, including that same color in the bobbin . again, ZERO problems. It just seems 'thin' . OH, this thread does not seem to like the needle theader! If you don't get it threaded right the first time, as they say, fuhgeddaboutit! Cut it and start over . at least on my machine.So ultimately, for the cost, I'm glad I got this box. Once I learn more, how to manipulate my machine and the stabilizers and fabrics and such, I'll probably order more.______________________UPDATE : 2 APRIL 2012 : will NOT be ordering more!having TENSION ISSUES on my JANOME 350e, but I think that is going to end up being a result of the thread I bought here on Best Buy Polyester Embroidery Thread Set - 40 Spools (500 meter spools/40 wt.) - Set D Brilliant Colors (That link should be the SET A, VIBRANT COLORS, they are still 500 meter spools, 40wt) . maybe, maybe not. not sure yet, but several things I've worked on have not come out very well, and I was using that thread. It's too loose on the spool once the machine starts working, either standing up or laying on the Janome 350e's horizontal spindle. I've got brand name thread, just don't want to use it :) but I'm going to have to I guess . I've got an nice machine to make nice gifts, gonna have to do the right thing and use the right stuff.It doesn't pay to cut corners . It COSTS. Please learn from my experience. I think the thread may be okay for some applications, but I'm not going to spend/waste a whole lot of time adjusting tensions and fiddling with stabilizers to figure out what goes with what . I've got good thread, good stabilizer and an average tension I know works, so I'm done with it. I've got it if I need it, but other than that, never mind it for good embroidery.
