2Heavy-duty thread? I don't think so  Apr 07, 2011
By H. Pericles "TZ"
I bought this thread (black) because the few reviews stated it was great and praised it. However, when I received this joke of a thread, it became very clear that IT IS NOT a HEAVY-DUTY thread. It's quite the opposite, for it is easily broken with one pull of a finger when testing its strength. I currently have some all-purpose Coats threads that are STRONGER than this one from Threadart.

I thought this thread was somewhat similar to a real robust cotton thread (giving to me by my father years ago) that I have that is almost finished -- and I can't find it anywhere; I've even looked in many fabric stores in Miami. This thread that I have is EXTREMELY strong, sturdy, and very difficult to break with a pull of a finger when testing how strong it is, not to mention it is very fine (i.e., THIN). I'm not even sure if such thread even exist anymore.

I guess I'll be continuing my search online to find some real heavy-duty cotton threads, because this one is not even close. I'm not sure if this mercerized cotton thread is what companies today call heavy-duty, nor if these so called heavy-duty threads are substitutions for authentic cotton threads that were made in the past, but this purchased thread is pathetic. I would not recommend this thread to anyone.

Again, this thread IS NOT heavy-duty, thus buy it at your own peril.

By Donna Ford
This is one of the best purchases I have made for my sewing area. I was soooo tired of changing out the thread constantly. It is a quality product.

This thread arrived in great condition and before I expected it. Being very pleased with the product, as I do quite a bit of sewing, I would recommend it to anyone for quality and value. Julie Fields

It is a strong, very good quality thread. Thick, but not too thick. I consider it a very good value.

This thread was exactly as advertised and worked extremely well with the sewing that was done with it. My order was processed very quickly. This company is highly recommended.
