I was thrilled to receive this a day earlier than expected, and it is exactly what I wanted. I would recommend this product for anyone who has a lot of thread they need to keep neatly stored.Holds my thread nicely- I do a lot of sewing and quilting. This satchel now holds all my quilting threads, and I may get another to hold some additional all-purpose threads I have. I was able to put the corresponding bobbins underneath the spools of thread. The depth of the satchel even accommodates larger thread spools with bobbins under. Some of my largest spools are 2.5 inches high and, and the bobbins fit underThe spindles are a little close together, but you can fit more spools in if you alternate small and large spools. I did not do that in my satchel, because I like to separate my spools by rayon, variegated cotton, metallic, etc. If I alternated large and small, I could definitely fit almost twice as much thread in the satchel.Easy to store - I previously had my thread on a wooden thread holder with little wooden spindles. The spindles were too short for the larger spools, especially when I wanted to put the corresponding bobbins with the thread spools. And I always had a difficult time storing it, because it folds out like an easel and takes up a lot of space. With the satchel I am able to close and lock the lid, and I can store it vertically if needed. After I loaded the thread spools, I closed the lid and flipped the satchel upside down as a test. None of my spools came off the spindles.Removable trays - The trays have little finger grips to make removal from the satchel easy. This feature comes in handy if I want to take only part of my thread stash to my sewing table.Good value - It is a good price, comparable to other stores, but the shopping experience is easier of course.

This case is really good. For the thin/narrow threads it will hold a whole case of them. However, if you have a standard thread bobbin, they will not fit on every peg as they are too big so you might have to get more cases. Even with this problem, I recommend this case as it is sturdy, stackable, and secure with two latches.I did have a problem with the seller sending the wrong item, but they fixed it the next day and I received the correct product two days later without having to return the wrong product, get a refund, and then reorder the item. Very convenient for me.

The perfect case for organizing threads for paper and hand piecing. If you can’t see your threads, you can’t use them. This case was used to blend threads from two stashes by color. The case holds, by my count 108 spools - two internal trays each holding 54 spools in 5 rows: 11 per row on the outer 4 rows and 10 in the inner row. The clasps are sturdy and the handle folds out of the way. The case will keep these beautiful threads dust free. These quality threads keep well and are gradually used over decades so this is key advantage to this type of case. This case is sturdy enough to last beyond my own sewing career and pass along to another quilterI looked over a lot of thread storage solutions. This case beautifully organizes the Gutterman and Mettler threads - both the small 150M and medium 200M, 250M, 500M and 800M all fit well. Had 2 YLI pearl cotton 100 yard spools and they also easily fit this case.This was the perfect solution for organizing the type and quantity of threads from two stashes. The case is a good value as high quality thread is not inexpensive. Ordering the colors revealed duplicates and gaps between the two sets. Every spool is now visible and at the ready for English paper piecing and appliqué sewing projects.

There’s no way to get as many spools on it as advertised. Well I suppose one could but they would have to be very thin spools. Overall it works fine but don’t expect to have the amount advertised

Its larger than I expected. The pegs are too close together for some spools. Seems to hold them well.

I recently realized, that I cannot get much work done in my sewing room, because I just have so much stuff in my stash. I'm not trying to brag... I think you know you're the kind of person that has this problem if you can relate. But, I do have a lot of thread- I have an embroidery machine and I have several sewing machines that I do all kinds of sewing on. I have accumulated a lot of thread. I used to keep it all in drawers, and I couldn't really think Of another way to organize it without using a lot of flat real estate. I also didn't want to hang it on a wall or have it exposed to Dust and things because I do have pets. I bought four of these and was able to arrange my threads by embroidery, neutrals, warm colors, and cool colors. This makes it a lot easier to go right to the thread color I need instead of pawing through a drawer or a plastic tub looking for that color I think I bought two years ago. Plus they nest and stack together in a relatively small area and can sit on a shelf behind my machine that's kind of up high and I can't really use for much else. If my collection expands, I can just separate the categories a little bit further and add additional cases. I was leery about buying these when I first saw them at Joannes, but I did take one home and I saw that you really can pack quite a few spools of guterman sew all in between the cracks of the bigger spools of coats and Clark or Quilting spools and things like that. Ultimately, I'm glad that I did get them, and Amazon has a far better price than other places I have seen these items in person.

I love this thread organizer so much I bought a 2nd one. I've tried MANY thread/spool organizers and for one reason or another I couldn't make them work for me. This case allows me to store the bobbin and spool together, organize by color, see the color, easy to put spools in and out, case snaps shut easily and snug enough that bobbins/spools don't come off and slide around in storage or transport.

I used to keep my thread in an organizer that was too small and they were always getting mixed up. Now I can arrange by colour. I have more than the box is made to accept but you can fit the smaller spools in between others, so I probably managed to get 100 spools in. And when you close the lid, you can take it on the road and the spools stay fit. It seems expensive but it is well made and fills a need so I don’t regret it at all.

Das ist jetzt schon die vierte Box, eine für Overlockgarne (hohe Konen) und dann drei Stück dieser stabilen und praktischen und - ganz wichtig - stapelbaren Box. Für mich absolut empfehlenswert! Man kann dort von kleinen Rollen bis zu Miniking alles unterbringen. Von den kleinen, kurzen Rollen (z. B. 400m Madeira) kriegt man sogar zwei Stück übereinander.Nur muss ich jetzt hier noch reinschreiben, dass beim Verkäufer - hier Amazon UK - nicht ordentlich eingepackt wurde. Die Box wurde ohne weiteren Schutz nur in eine Papierverpackung (kein Karton oder gepolsterte Tasche!) gesteckt. Sie hat keinen Schaden genommen, was aber nicht überall der Fall sein muss. je nachdem wie das Teil während des Versandweges behandelt wird. Die Verpackung hat aber nichts mit der Qualität des Artikels zu tun, daher kein Abzug.

Corrisponde alla descrizione. Utile e solido. Meglio di una scatola di biscotti dove c'è il mondo intero dentro

Great thread box as it easily holds lots of different sized spools. (see the item for exact figures).
